Something about that photo�s style and headline registered it as an Onion article in my head, until I saw that it wasn�t.

It�s really cool and good how often that happens to me these days.

The NFT thought experiment of �You can buy the Mona Lisa and then make an NFT of it, if the Mona Lisa is destroyed all of its value is retained in the NFT� is about to be put into practice.

I want this to be a case of El Salvador taking advantage of clueless idiots to bilk them out of scads of cash but I feel like it will end with their electrical grid collapsing under the demands of running a million waifu simulators.

Let me tell u the Rolercoaster ride I�ve been on the last few days.

OK, so I met someone on Twitter (I know, red flag lol). We talked for like 6 to 7 days. She asked why in the world I wasn�t part of an eth mining pool. She said she was bringing in 4 eth a day as profit. I asked her how it�s done, apparently, you take tether in your coin base wallet, and you join an Ethereum mining pool, and they use your tether to create eth and you get dividends back in Ethereum.

I tried it with a small amount and saw that it was indeed making profit that I could withdraw in tether and send back to coin base and ultimately my account. The profit was incredible. The return is 1-3% per day depending on the amount of tether you have.

So I put in $200k of tether and was making 2% per day. That�s $4000 per day in ethereum straight to my account as passive income. I was about to retire.

Today I took a nap, when I got up, I checked my tether account (200,000 tether), and the balance was zero. A random address had withdrawn it all 😣

I contacted the mining pool help and they said it has to be staked/pledged for 30 days. I have no access to it or the profits, but I can see the profits being made (approx 0.5 tether every 6 hours)�staking it doubles the profit.

So I called coinbase wallet freaking out wondering if this is a scam and they said they�ve never heard of an issue like this before which is a good sign. Also, that girl I met who told me about it, is still talking to me and trying to ease my worries�which is also a good sign because of it was a scam, she would just disappear.

If it�s a scam, I�m out of 200k. If it�s not a scam. The 200k is set to bring in $270k just in profit in one month.

Do you guys have any experience or thoughts on this?

Lmao

I love how loving gullible people still are, even with the internet putting tons of information about this poo poo right at their fingertips. �Oh, my small investment is producing suspiciously consistent returns? I�d better up my stake to a HUGE amount, that�s never gone wrong in investment history! By the way, who or what is Ponzi?�

tokin opposition: Apr 8, 2021; The dialectical struggle of history has always, essentially, been a question of how to apply justice to matter. Take away matter and what remains is justice.

Goons it's time for a psyop.

We convince the internet that crypto is a code word for being a cryptonazi. Like drinking milk or the OK sign. We're the Illuminati of the internet so it should be easy.

Pros:

The right will get into it to own the libs
The libs will get mad at anyone doing crypto
The crypto nerds will be sad

Cons:

Will push crypto nerds into fascism, but they're mostly libertarians so it's really only bringing up the schedule
