    I have $10 in a wager that Trump won’t launch a coin before the election and I feel like every passing day that is an increasingly worse bet to have made

    At this point I don’t have a shred of sympathy for anyone who loses money to this. One way or another they deserved it.

      Nobody is losing money through this, it’s all going to be bought up by foreign influence campaigns as a way to funnel money.

      Dimwitted Republicans losing money is hilarious. Unfortunately, their loss enriches Donald. We can only hope that E. Jean Carroll somehow claims all that.

      For you to short something a institutional investor or market maker takes a long position on the same thing.

      For some reason legit institutional investors never really show up in the crypto sphere and the smart market makers don’t like to get high on their own supply (or are selling tokens they got at insider prices on the open market).

    That’s a really big rug they put in there. Would be a shame to everyone else if they were to pull it out suddenly.
