Hawk Tuah
Pump and dump
Oh come on now
I can only imagine that the writers at The Onion are going insane because they just can’t compete with reality anymore.
At this point they’re just the news. Actually they’re more accurate. No creativity needed anymore.

At this stage, I have no sympathy for anyone dumb enough to invest in an obvious pump-n-dumps.
there’s more people out there than you think. your exposure to the concept is relatively niche and privelaged, i think there’s still massive chunks of the population with exploitable cash out there that cons like this seek to exploit
I understand that, but I seriously doubt these people are losing essential money. If you can afford to buy Hawk Tuah coins for the ‘community aspect’ then they probably aren’t at risk of losing their life saving.
There’s a big gap between what’s happening here and telescammers robbing grannies for example.
you’re free to believe that, without proof there’s no argument either way, and in any case it’s my personal belief this kind of manipulation of assets should be illegal no matter the target audience
Don’t get me wrong, I’m not claiming this isn’t insider manipulation, or that it should be legal.
What I’m saying is people have a personal responsibility to be informed about the risks associated with cryptocurrency.
At this point, if you lose money on a pump-n-dumps, that’s all on you.
The same could not be said five years ago, when influencer coins were unheard of.
Idk if you have ever looked at or downloaded a retail trading app, something like Robinhood. All of them have a prominent “education” section which distills down to “don’t take our word for it; know what you are buying before you do.”
You are correct that people have a personal responsibility to be informed about the risks. However ALSO, marketers of the risky assets also have a responsibility to inform traders of their own investments and that risks are even possible when giving financial advice—this obviously is happening nowhere because no regulating body requires it.
This is why I don’t hold it against anyone in this situation for not informing themselves. They can’t inform themselves if they aren’t even told it might be necessary, and especially not when that “personal responsibility” you speak of is actively hidden from them.
Hope this makes sense :) appreciate the discussion

Explain the privilege please.
You think she gets tired of being called a “girl”?
definitely. despite her bad actions i do feel bad for the misogyny she experiences. especially the whole getting pressured to make an OF stuff. i hope it doesn’t get to her and she can grow past the bad shit and have a fulfilling life
Wait! The coin is called “Hawk” ? And they didn’t spect a “Tuah”? That’s hilariously funny
The Hawk & Tuah scheme
I eagerly await the inevitable coffeezilla video
already exists https://youtu.be/zUHq8AWR1Rg
Ah, a side channel I’d never heard of. Thanks!
I guess the podcast thing wasn’t going well and this is the attempt to cash out on the last few seconds of her 5 minutes of fame?
so my understanding is actually that she’s more of an exploited middleman/useful idiot in this situation
from her videos its obvious that a) she has a pretty big management team backing her and b) she actually has no clue what she is talking about with crypto
from this i conclude (could be wrong but my best guess given what i have seen) that it’s actually her team that’s cashing out on her by approving and aiding whatever crypto devs approached her with this move. she’ll probably make a good profit of course, but it strikes me as her PR team intentionally kneecapping her on the way out.
