Lol those extra ai fingers in the thumbnail
The lowest of low efforts.
TIL Creative actually wants credit for it too.
She’s got a long thumb too
For all we know she might actually have those.
It’s by design though, isn’t it? Are there even any crypto green flags? Why are any of these ventures treated as anything other than rug-pull scams?
I think even people that put money into these know these are a rug-pull. However we need to update the meme. Perhaps those that lost are: temporarily embarrassed rug-pullers themselves. As in, they were hoping to fleece someone else, and got fleeced instead so they'll stand up and defend those that fleeced them hoping one day to fleece others.
Its bad people all the way down from the abusers to the victims.
It's half grift, half an avenue for bribery. Buying a lot of this coin is slightly less conspicuous than showing up at the white house with a sack of krugerrands.
Then again with this administration the grift is just right out in the open. So maybe this is a dumb as it looks.
It's just that much more insulting when the grift is both obvious and so low effort
The instructions that I heard was to buy high and sell low. Is that one of those "green flags"?
Green flags: a technology that is actually novel or useful. Monero is wonderful for privacy. Nano is great for microtransactions (see NanoGPT). Ethereum is great for smart contracts. Stablecoins are a good currency replacement in hyperinflation countries where there's no better alternative. Crypto is a fantastic advancement of finance technology. Please don't see them (all) as scams. I would argue don't see them as investments at all.
Crash course in crypto red flags
Is it crypto? --> 🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩
My lord, that thumbnail is Lovecraftian levels or nightmare fuel! Especially the left hand.
The right hand has 5 fingers and a thumb, they sure do love their AI huh.
That cartoon depiction looks nothing like Melania Trump.
I know. The cartoon actually looks appealing compared to that cunt faced removed
Anyone notice everyone's name on the group chat is Melania? Isn't ai lovely
I didn't notice that... I did notice all the creepy weird fingers though
I wonder who could be so stupid to actually waste money on such a scheme.
Same people that fall for Ponzi
I mean, no woman-owned coin is going to be successful with the neckbeard crypto lords. It's not economics, it's trumpenomocs.
scammers gonna scam
arnt most cryptos just meme coins anyways.
Ah yes. It's not that these idiots invested serious money into something called a "meme coin." No, it's all the other red flags they ignored that were the problem.
That removed is a case study in all sorts of red flags.
It is an embrace of the invisible.
They use religion to "prove" they're right.
They use A.I. to "prove" they're smart.
They use Bitcoin to "prove" they're rich.
I suspect there is a con-man nearby. Look for anything orange.
