      He’s pro “Do the thing that gets me money.” He has zero idea how crypto works. He has no idea how a friggin’ electric car works.

      They tapped out people in fixed incomes donating $50 at a time to his “legal defense” slush fund, and this is the next level of letting his broligarch funders use him as a what he is, a brand name, to fleece the undereducated and zealots.

    Literally my only financial regret is not shorting his bullshit meme coin when it first surged, because I couldn’t figure out how to get everything in place fast enough.

        Like I said, I couldn’t figure it out. I’m sure there are some less than reputable sites where it’s as risky to do a short as it is to put your money in the platform lol

        Now that I think about it I probably could have found some sort of gambling site that did the equivalent. “Pays out X if Trump’s griftcoin dips below Y by [date].”

          Its easy but risky

          Liqudates your assets (on kraken) if the leverage crosses a threshold

          Just use the (free) kraken pro site

          Long short etc

          Read their docs

        Looks like the big crypto exchanges allow you to borrow/short sell.

        There are crypto companies that are publicly traded as well as crypto ETFs. You could short sell those.

        Personally,I wouldn’t risk it with how crazy crypto is. It’s seems way too easy to manipulate.

      Exchanges typically do this. Ironically its also harmful to the libertarian side if the movement. Keeps the coins use as speculation rather than currency, centralized since you are using a broker, and bonus is that it defeats anonymity as most brokers need to follow kyc laws.

      Tho the real harm is the free market itself. No one cares about moving to it and the rampant scams deter mass adoption (even if people wanted). Neat microcosm of libertarian ideals.

    One day, there will be someone cleaning their fridge only to find a perfectly preserved Costco Trump stake. The last of its kind. He cooks it and enjoys the lead infested flesh. Later he finds it was worth $35.50 has he found the right buyer.

    I have no idea why I have to view some posts by visiting the original URL. Nice work, though

    Feels like the social construct around money is going to gave to be replaced somehow. We already had people born into bank accounts holding thousands of lifetimes of works worth and it is just getting worse it seems.
