And yet BTC keeps falling. as always, trump get richer as everyone who invests get poorer

Oh no it is only 62k. Basically worthless.

I’m reading this and I’m amazed. The guy is capturing all wealth of the US into private hands, releases a digital currency almost sounding like an official US currency under private venture, and people in the US clap? I think it could be the best time to review own morals.
cyanydeez•33m ago
it wouldn't be surprising if you read about Epstein's involvment in jump starting crypto. The kiddy diddlers, unsurprisingly, wanted independent wealth so they couldn't be squeezed by the monied balls.

Now they can destroy the US dollar and move everything into crypto, or so they think. Who knows if the billionaires will actually understand whats happening.

most people in the us aren't clapping

The voting public is not the same as the general public.
throw1234567891•6m ago
Maybe that general public should move their asses then. Trump and his family is ransacking the US. It would be funny if it wasn’t tragic.
lovich•21m ago
Ah, I wondered what was going to be the terrible reason that people in the admin like Vance were arguing that the US should stop being the world’s reserve currency. I guess they want to swap it for currency they control.
davesque•11m ago
Who's clapping?? I think the man should be in jail. A minimum of half the country has always hated this guy's guts.
throw1234567891•8m ago
Yet he’s a president. For the second time!
