Isn’t that the point? Allow anybody (including foreign crypto holders) to funnel money into the Trump family bank account with zero accountability?
I saw a documentary about the trump, or the wall. And they were selling part of the wall where people could write their name. It was really clear that this family is just scamming people left and right!!

Mainly right tho

Breaking news, obvious scam is a scam.
*Obvious money laundering is money laundering (and also a scam).
Not sure I'd call it money laundering, it's all being done in the clear.
But it's certainly a scam:
The paper released Thursday shows that Trump and his family assume no liability. It indicates that none of them are directors, employees, managers or operators of WLF or its affiliates, and said the project and the tokens “are not political and have no affiliation with any political campaign.”
There's a strong implication that launching this during his campaign means it's tied to the campaign, but it's really not.
"New crypto coin" is a weird way to say bribe money laundering
Bribe. Scam. It's all snowballing into the same thing.

Huh. From what I’ve searched, WLFI comes with its own warning on coingecko, a site that supposedly tracks various cryptocurrencies.
According to GoPlus, this is a proxy contract. The contract owner can make code changes to the token contract including but not limited to disabling sells, changing fees, minting, transferring tokens etc. Exercise caution.
No active trades are found for this coin.
Emphasis mine.
If it wasn't such a pithy amount that they sold I would accuse them if it, but this would be a great avenue to accept donations from foreign or nefarious actors.

Also Kambalula NEVER WORKED AT McDoNALdS but look at these pics of Taylor Swift she loves me but fuck that overrated bitch. They gave me an award once for being the most honest person on earth but covid is a democrat scam, now buy my steaks and bitcoin, I'm the least racist person in the world even the lazy mexicans and black bitches say it but women think I'm the most sexy business man they all want me to grab them by the pussy but I wouldn't rape the ugly ones. Send donations liberals are giving abortion to trans communist. 50% of the country will vote for me anyway, lol.
I started reading it as Trump, but it quickly devolved into redneck hillbilly, and honestly both work
I'd say it's remarkable that Trump is even still able to run for president, but all this country seems to care about is social issues, and that clearly makes it easier to control people.

WLFI has a current value of $0.0000000000034 USD.
That's about 3 billion WLFI for 1 penny. What a deal!
According to this article, they "sold 846.63 million tokens valued at $12.7 million" on the first day, leaving "19.1 billion coins worth $287 million unsold".
At the current price, $12.7 million USD would require 65,376,030 Trillion WLFI, so to get the money back you just have to own 3.2 billion times more WLFI tokens that exist.
Sounds like a penny stock, I should dump my life savings into it, right?
Hey, I made a bunch off a penny stock once time. Ignore that I've invested in penny stocks more than once.
The only crypto where the rug pull is done on top
The stupidest thing about Trump is that he could have extorted billions of dollars out of the Saudis on Inauguration Day. Even Team Rocket could have figured that out.
I'm not 100% sure Jared didnt
I'm unfamiliar with this, what's the story there?
Team Rocket are the primary antagonists in the Pokemon series, and the lead characters from Team Rocket are usually inept with their plans getting foiled by the protagonists, who are 10 or 11yo, and usually by accident.
I'm mad but I laughed.
Ah, the ol' Lemmy Pokeroo.

When Trump says he's "pro crypto", this is what he means.
Meanwhile the SEC under Biden/Harris has helped crypto by targeting actual scams like this one.
So in case you have a friend who's a crypto bro, remind him who has actually helped and who called Bitcoin a scam.
World Liberty Financial, or WLF
are these the guys that sell wolf cola
Sounds like the guys that sell limited edition newly minted coins on Fox News commercials.
I wonder if any particular blyat is gonna buy these up.

Washing that money clean
I hate to be a buzzkill, but the odds are he will win in 17 days. We need to make preparations for the long and difficult road that faces us. I don't know what that means, maybe you do.
Looking at a map with the current polls (and focusing on the toss-ups), it seems that the most viable path to victory for Harris is to pick up PA, MI, and WI. If she drops PA, she'd need MI, NV, WI or AZ, and GA or NC, but that seems like a big ask. If she wins PA, she could lose WI if she picks up AZ, GA, or NC and she could lose MI if she wins GA, NC, or AZ and NV. But winning PA and losing both WI and MI would require winning AZ and either GA or NC.
So there are a few paths to a Harris win, and a few don't seem very farfetched, but none of them seem likely enough for comfort. Definitely not how I was hoping to be feeling at this point in the election.
Everybody does. It happened before in Europe.

Dudes just trying to stack up all the lawsuits. SEC won't be so nice I don't think.
SEC can't SEC if SEC doesn't exist.
