This whole thing is incredible. Just incredible. barstoolsports has a nice summary and I'm sure Coffeezilla will get in on this asap.

Coindesk - What Is a Crypto Rug Pull?

A rug pull is a type of exit scam that involves a team raising money from investors and the public by selling a token only to quietly shut down the project or suddenly disappear, stealing the raised funds and leaving "investors" (i.e., their victims) with worthless tokens.

Rug pulls can be extensively orchestrated, with nefarious actors leveraging social media influencers and hype-generating campaigns to lure as many victims as possible.

Can't believe people trusted a random slag who talked about cock sucking to a stranger, some people really are thick.

 

[DKehoe]

I don't know a lot about crypto, so I'm not asking this as a rhetorical question. What reason would someone have to buy a coin like this? It seems like every one of these I hear about results in huge sums of money being lost by those who buy them.

Everyone wants to make a quick profit, so you hope to hop in before the crash.

 

[MudoSkills]

Anybody who loses their shirt on crypto 100% has it coming.

The drama

 

[TMONSTER]

This was clearly an obvious scam, but let's not throw all of crypto under the bus because of it. Bitcoin just crossed $100k, you have been proven foolish to have ignored it calling it a scam for the last 15 years.

 

[YCoCg]

So it's a pump and dump?

[TheMan]

Is there any medium more perfectly suited for scams and crimes than these digital coins?

 

[dem]

I mean... good for her

Does anyone think Hailey Welch had any idea what's going on with this coin?

Get that bag.

If you're one of the idiots buying it.... Its called a memecoin. What did you expect?

 

[DKehoe]

Everyone wants to make a quick profit, so you hope to hop in before the crash.

So I would just be buying it to sell it on to someone else before it crashes? Even in the best good faith version I'm just looking to pass it off onto some rube so that I'm not the rube left holding it?

The drama

Man, the journey from "says funny thing on Tiktok" to this is so surreal yet also predictable.

 

[AJUMP23]

Greed is going to kill the good stuff she had going, and it did not take long.

 

[Toots]

NOT everybody, some became much richer

 

[ssringo]

Really? A fucking hawk tuah crypto coin? Holy shit people love pissing away money.

 

[SJRB]

Wouldn't be surprised if she was suckered into this and actually has no idea what the hell is even happening. Doesn't really strike me as a crypto scammer.

As far as I know with these meme coins sometimes they spike in price early on before going to hell. So if you get in early and sell fast you an make a profit.

If you are lucky and someone like Elon Musk or whatever tweets about it that's even better. It's going to go from being worth 0.0001 cents to 0.001....which is like a 900% increase.

But it's basically gambling at that point

[thefool]

She's an idiot for getting involved in something she does not understand. There is ample evidence that, most likely, will bring her many problems.

Is there any medium more perfectly suited for scams and crimes than these digital coins?

Yes, the US dollar.

 

[FeralEcho]

So she WAS just a fucking cunt with no future prospects outside of sucking dck afterall...

I remember how I commented in a thread about her when she was "viral" and was ganged up by a couple of users here saying how dare I judge her and that I'm worse than her because I judge. Sounds like my judgement was right afterall so you can all eat shit,you know who you are!

 

[Mossybrew]

lmao, fallin for one of the classic blunders, pretend meme money, you just love to see it.

 

[nkarafo]

This was one of the most annoying memes people ever memed.

 

[NickFire]

She deserves a pass. She made millions and millions of us smile a whole bunch of times last summer.

 

[jason10mm]

Sadly, she could just pop top, send the vid to everyone who 'lost' money, and call it even. These days the valuation of bare breasts is in the MILLIONS.

Doge went up 731,000% (at its peak) not 900%.

But in general you're correct.

We truly live in a black mirror episode.

To think, one can get rich a famous buy making a joke about spitting on dick, then end up with a podcast and ripping people off with a meme coin.

We live in a world where man got famous for swallowing a potato without chewing, and now has a documentary and is sunning it up in Maimi begging porn stars to bang his GF because she's "gagging for BBC".

What the fuck happened? We need a reset.

Nah bro, just because Trump put some crypto bro on board because he was asked by a bunch of other bros that wanted to make a quick buck doesn't make it any more legit. The whole thing has no use and is going nowhere after 15 years, maybe it's time to let go.
Having said that, may I interest you in my new AI startup?

How is that different when probably the biggest influencer on the planet got famous for taking a black D on home video?

 

[HoodWinked]

she's is completely out of her element and probably promised alot of money to let them put her face on this coin and got into a room with people that made it seem like they knew what they were doing and fucked her over.

but ya she should have been way more discerning with anything crypto related since there was a 99% chance of being a shit show.

 

[IDKFA]

It isn't any different. That's just another example to add to the pile.

 

[IntentionalPun]

Not seeing proof of a rug pull.

Seems likely though.

Digital coin I don't think is good yes it's forward thinking but it would have overtaken traditional cash, and debt/credit years ago.

 

[IDKFA]

Beavo is his name. Imagine a young David Brent from the UK version of the office who is desperate to cling onto his 15 mins of fame. A truly pathetic excuse of a man.

 

[Werewolf Jones]

Not even straight but I'm waiting on her eventual backshot video. I wanna see if she's actually freaky or just another basic Becky.

 

[Insane Metal]

I mean, this is so precise, it hurts. FFS!

... what's his beef with BBC though? Doesn't he like their shows?

 

[IDKFA]

lol.

He wanted (more like his GF wanted) a collaboration with Jason Luv with. As if Jason Luv is going to bang some random women with Beavo wanking in the corner. Delusional and desperate.

Time stamped so you don't need to watch it all

 

[AJUMP23]

Community notes to oblivion.

She should have just done OF. She would be multi-millionaire by now.

Turns out the only thing more embarrassing than someone publicly begging another man to fuck his wife is that other man ignoring those pleas.
