    The idea that this is all a massive conspiracy by Binance printing fake stablecoins to pump the market seems far fetched given their recent legal concessions and intensive reporting they are doing with the US government.

        Why do you post so much about bitcoin/crypto if you don’t like it? Is it like an obsession for you or something?

        Reminds me of the people that follow pages on Instagram just to comment on every one of their posts about how much they hate it

          Because it’s fraudulent trash that hurts people and it’s a social service to call it out. Also, dumb crooks getting their comeuppance is funny.

          Both of those should have already been obvious.

            can confirm, it’s fucking hilarious to watch

            amy and david’s postings about this is one of the few pieces of online writing that I follow consistently, because it does a great job of not toeing the line on giving these people leeway to hide their abusive bullshit

            Ok, that’s fair. I didn’t pay attention/realize what this sub was about and really shouldn’t have commented without checking.

            That said, if you’re all already on the same page in this community, isn’t it just a circle-jerk, at this point, rather than a social service? Seems like you’re all moreso just having fun, which is totally fine. Reminds me more of the hermancainaward sub - that’s a good one

              gosh fucking damn your entire post history is just this exhausting sealioning bit repeated across multiple subs. time for you to fuck off

          I’m kind of glad our new Buttcoin is already well-syndicated enough to carry on one of the old sub’s finest traditions: crypto kids coming in right after bitcoin spikes in price, saying something fucking embarrassing, and disappearing when the sugar rush of the number going up ends and they realize they’ve made no profit (and that last bit is particularly funny given how quickly all the exchanges closed — somebody dumped their bags on this spike and made a profit, but they’re almost certainly too busy running an exchange and hiding from the SEC to bother posting pointless shit here)

            Wait, am I the crypto kid? I don’t even follow crypto. I just asked a simple question. Why does that guy, you can answer as well, follow/post so much about crypto if they really don’t like it? That’s kind of weird, isn’t it?

            That said, I’d never been to this sub so it’s totally on me for commenting in y’all’s community without understanding what it’s about

              also, you were posting crypto talking points in a meme thread only a month ago. did you forget which account you did that on? fucking shithead

          Please come back and crow about the price if it’s managed to pumped up significantly over this wet-fart “ATH” in the future, so we can tick of the “typical Bitcoin booster” bingo card.

            No idea what that means. You’re assuming a whole lot there from a simple question. I don’t even follow crypto.

            Tbf, I didn’t realize what sub this is.
