Finally a business that makes sense to take crypto in that crypto transactions are slow as gently caress just like the time it takes them to get around to making the burrito you ordered on the app! (It's still dumb and despite my bitching I do love those burritos)

It seems all crypto payment services are sort of the equivalent of a payday loan

Just the arrogance to make something as aggressively bad as that and to then be able to think "gently caress yes let's get this boss rear end poo poo I made out there two the world" is something I will never be able to comprehend being able to do.

I've been looking at this all wrong. The biggest suckers are the people doing NFT or currency projects who DON'T rug pull. Imagine being a true believer and leaving money on the table like that. Insanity. Just walk away dog

The new trick is to point out that their apes can only be depicted against the background in the original image because to do otherwise is to risk infringing on another ape

I take it the people who gamble on these things are all 100% aware that the promises the scheme promoters make are bullshit? They surely can't actually believe this stuff. Yeah we have a contract with the pokemon company to use their IP for our crappy NFTs. And we'll give you some money for the rest of your life and we're also totally going to make a game. (seems like every single one of these includes "we're making a game" as one of the promises)

So given everyone knows that it's nonsense, they only come out with all that stuff because it's an expected part of "playing the game" and they know that if you don't make a bunch of ridiculous promises (that everybody involved knows are all lies) then people won't buy in because it isn't taking the expected form?

But then, what is in it for the rubes who put money into it? Are they treating it as a ponzi scheme and intending to get out ahead of the rug pull? Surely the schemes are all too short-lived for that. Do any of these schemes end with "investors" making money (without hacking or social-engineering it outside the rules of the game)?

On 23 March 2022, hackers compromised the Ronin Network, stealing approximately US$620 million in Ether and USDC. The hack currently sits as the largest-ever breach in the cryptocurrency sector by dollar value. A month prior to the incident, the game had become the first NFT series to exceed US$4 billion in sales

Many of them think they're running the scam, while simultaneously hoping that this one will go to the moon. They know it's bullshit, but they have to keep all the rubes in line so they can pull off their perfectly-timed exit the instant their honed, smart senses detect that the moon definitely isn't in the cards for this one. Just repeat the message and be ready to pull rugs and stab backs when it's time.

The others trust Matt Damon and don't really understand what crypto is, just that it's new and some people got rich from it.

Probably. It's a great way to keep the conversation going, although I doubt there's still much public interest left in NFTs.

At night, Bavovnyatko quietly comes to the occupiers’ bases, depots, airfields, oil refineries and other places full of flammable items and starts playing with fire there
"Pull The Rug" - a game for 4-7 players, where you attempt to convince the other players to 'invest' in your crypto-currency based projects, watch it rise! rise! rise!, until someone secretly draws the "Rug Pull!" card from the event deck.

Then The Fun Begins(TM).

Each turn you can perform multiple actions:

- create new cryptocoin
- invest in a coin
- sell coins (drops price)
- HODL!!! (causes a currency to rise or fall based on diceroll)
- play Event Card
- discard entire Event hand
- Short a coin (beware the Margin Call event card!)
- promote a coin (pay for a chance to get investors)
