O absurdo de pampar depois do rug pull

Por que pampar uma meme coin depois de um RUG PULL? 🤯

Surprise, surprise, the Trump Mobile phone is a rugpull vaporware. Nine months after taking $100 deposits from 600,000 customers, the website quietly changed the terms of the deposit to say that a phone may never be produced at all.

The Trump family just fleeced $60M from their most diehard fans.

Hey, at least these chumps didn’t fork over $50k for a Roadster that hasn’t shown up after 9 years, huh?

Our company just migrated from a legacy product tracking system to a shiny new one. Not a full month into the new year and the #SAAS provider is starting to charge money for #API access.

Hilarious to be rugpulled the instant we cut over to a new solution. I used the API to automate uploading tons of documents as part of the migration, but if this had happened a month ago people would've probably still been doing it by hand as of today.

There are many reasons why #FuckEricAdams is a popular hashtag among fedi people in #NYC

Wow #Cardano is still around?
There is life after a #rugpull!

For those out there using minio to provide S3 storage: enshittification is underway, you might want to explore different solutions.

Over the past months, several features have been removed from the community distro, and now the docker images are no longer updated, leaving self hosters unprotected due to missing security updates.

Also, the documentation has been pulled as well it seems.

See:

* https://github.com/minio/object-browser/issues/3546

EDIT: add info about docs, add ycombinator link

WTF is going on? Fake Kanye coins like Yeezy Coin and Swasticoin are crashing after the real $YZY token launched, and now supporters are melting down.

Here’s the truth: celebrity hype coins are chaos. Scammers launch fakes, fans FOMO in, and when the dust settles, it’s always the little guys left wrecked.

Today it’s Kanye. Tomorrow it’ll be someone else. Fame does not equal trust, and crypto built on worshipping celebs or chasing memes is nothing more than a casino where the house always wins.

Crypto is supposed to empower, not fleece. Don’t throw your wallet at hype, protect it. If you can’t tell who made the token, or why it exists beyond “because Kanye,” then you already know the answer.

The lesson? DYOR or get rugged.

#Crypto #Kanye #DYOR #RugPull

Kanye West just launched his $YZY token on Solana and, of course, the hype machine is in overdrive. People are piling in like it’s the second coming of Bitcoin.

But let’s be real: celeb coins are some of the biggest traps in crypto. Fame does not equal financial safety. Just because someone’s on stage or in the headlines doesn’t mean they can’t rug you, or that the people around them won’t manipulate the market while you’re left holding worthless tokens.

We’ve seen this story again and again. Flashy debut, frenzied trading, promises of “community” or “culture”, and then? The hype fades, insiders cash out, and ordinary people are left with bags that nobody wants. The celebrity walks away richer, and the fans are the ones who bleed.

Crypto is supposed to be about empowerment, freedom, and self-sovereignty. Don’t trade that vision for blind worship of famous names who might not care if you lose your savings tomorrow. Be careful, stay sceptical, and remember: celebrities already have money. They don’t need yours.

Don’t let hype chains around your wallet. Protect yourself. DYOR.

This is why I don't make "community contributions" to "open platforms" which don't have some very solid legal framework for governance in place.

They sell out to VC and rug pull hard on the community that provides the bulk of their data and value.
