For the first time, US residents can now invest in memecoins through traditional brokerages. Trading will only get stranger from here.

      I miss sponsoring Jamaican bobsled team and NASCAR (Josh Wise). We also sponsored building a well in Kenya, for access to water (Doge4Water). DOGE used to be a force of good before it was hijacked by Muskrat and that orange piece of shit.

    FINALLY! I recently started understanding more about stocks and investing, and what Memecoins are going to bring to the table is the removal of things making sense.

      To be fair yuppies and crypto bros are basically the same people. The stock market was only ever marginally less stupid. It’s only saving grace was it was somewhat regulated, albeit with a fair amount of corruption.

      Not certain about shit and poop, but according to the song:

      You take some fuck then some shit

      Then some fuck then some shit

      You’ve got a fuck-shit stack

      A fuck-shit stack

      You take some fuck then some shit

      Then some fuck then some shit

      You’ve got a fuck-shit stack

      A fuck-shit stack

    In case everyone is sleeping let me break this down for you:

    Both crypto and modern private equity are ponzi schemes. With leverage to hold on crypto and leverage on leverage to own on private equity, both industries have been a bag throwing game between investors, with managers cashing in on every trade for close to a decade. Now, the industry is cooling down, they ran out of idiot fund managers to scam into participating in their ponzi scheme so they either let the bubble burst or they find new idiots to be left holding the bag when they cash out before the catastrophe. We’re a the find new idiots phase, with the new regulatory freedom sponsored by the pedophile in chief, all of these scammers are now turning to even lower sofistication investors to buy in their ponzi scheme so they can cash out before the shit hits the fan. Case in point, new age app brokers now advertising investment in the “private markets” as a new product. I see another wealth transfer wave from the lower and middle class to the 1% happening within 2 to 3 years. It’s going to be the reason we get Nazis again in power in the civilized world.
