I love that they're threatening legal action if people don't return this currency built on its untraceable nature

The price at the beginning of the year (which is the best mark for the price before the most recent round of people who bought in with their stimmies) was around $29k. If it falls below that, those folks will be underwater. We'll get to see how diamond the hands are then.

yahoo finance article says this is happening right as gold prices start to go up, so it could be the maximum comedy of all the hedge funds getting out of crypto and back into something real and all the musk diciples realising how tiny they are

also binance have apparently disabled withdrawls and a bunch of other crypto trading sites are down lmao

I'm starting to see some of the crypto-boosters on my Facebook timeline talking about "Flash sale for crypto! Get yours now!!!" Of course, since this is happening on a Tuesday the 19th, it's pretty much the worst possible time for the dumb retail crypto buyer. (Since those who get paid bimonthly don't have much money left over from their paycheck on the 15th, and those who get paid weekly/biweekly don't have much money left over from their paycheck last Friday.)
