@dieworkwear@0xb7cC3 The problem is that people don’t understand ALL the steps required to make a shoe. So they don’t balk at buying a designer shirt for $300 but squirm paying that for shoes. Americans see shoes as essentially disposable and it doesn’t help that there are so FEW cobblers left.
Retweeting bc this is the worst take I’ve maybe ever seen on here
These blockchains take years to roll out the most basic shit, but yea oracles and interconnectivity will be shipped any day now
@WedgeBuster88@Praxeas@Delta This makes no sense. If I want to fly, I have to risk getting an illness because some dumb hicks don’t want to wear some cloth for a few hours? These sorts of people are real scumbags.
@OsatoNomayo@ChrisBlec@OsatoNomayo for the love of god, stop legitimizing this troll, how new are you to this space?
Dude was literally posting conspiracy theories like a month ago
Dai = usdc isn’t even new. It’s a 2019 talking point
Sheesh
If you have any assets on @Nexo, I highly recommend you withdraw immediately
From their Zeus Capital short and distort scheme in 2020 to their social media astroturfing that is ongoing to this day
I’ve never before seen an organizations with so many red flags
@mdudas@otteroooo@Nexo@mdudas a relevant fact for you to consider: Capital, one of the largest newspapers in Bulgaria, did a full investigative piece on Nexo last year, tying them directly to Zeus Capital, a misinformation campaign directed at LINK so they could short it. Seriously, read:
@FatManTerra Here is an archived version of a Bulgaria media report from 2021 on Nexo
Talks to former employees about their shady activities and even includes a link to an early draft of the Zeus Capital report
Naturally, Nexo claims it’s all just “misinformation”
https://t.co/WbGeRVcmUk
@FatManTerra This is a flat out lie from Nexo, multiple former employees have already independently confirmed that Nexo was Zeus, even providing early drafts of the Zeus report, among other evidence that exists
Can’t speak for the rest of the claims
