The Bitcoin conference is no longer a Bitcoin conference it is a political and fiat roadshow.

Very true. What really gets under my skin is that when I speak to people about bitcoin they immediately assume I'm MAGA because of all the pre election publicity. I don't buy the whole there is no such thing as bad publicity thing.

Scammy crypto lobby probably held Bitcoin back a few years of adoption.

They did help get Ross Free. Also they do employ a lot of bitcoiners!

People can earn a living moving bitcoin into the mainstream for better or for worse.

Yeah bitcoin magazine fails the purity test of a maxi but I try not to throw the baby out with the bath water. They spend a lot of time and resources to move the space forward and employ and fund a ton of toxic Bitcoin maxis

Same here. And I hope people realize that this no where near the destructive force of fiat money and the Fed. Its a tradeoff of freedom. Even if the dollar dies and bitcoin takes its place you will have shitcoins.

I want to know who is even still buying this crap. You can't have pump & dumps without someone to dump on.

I think it's the guys who haven't thrown out their red hats yet

Under the proposal, each ultimate beneficial owner of DJT stock is expected to become eligible to receive one digital token for every whole share owned, with the distribution anticipated to begin in the near future.
Trump Media indicated that token holders may receive rewards periodically throughout the year, including potential benefits or discounts connected to the company’s products and services such as Truth Social, Truth+, and Truth Predict. Additional details about the distribution structure and timeline are expected to be released in the new year.

Passes the howey test. How are 99.9% of these ‘tokens’ not unregistered securities?
