Woe to those who manipulate religion and the very name of God for their own military, economic, and political gain, dragging that which is sacred into darkness and filth. #ApostolicJourney #Cameroon https://t.co/bKteFZ3iWE

The Crypto Apocalypse
Out of 20k ICOs:
80% of them (16k) were a total criminal scam in the first place - steal the money and run - based on results of an academic research paper.
Another 18% of them (3.6k) went to zero and collapsed .

Of remaining 2% (400) that survived those below the top 10 have lost on average over 90% of their value since their peak .

Of the top 10 : Bitcoin is down 45% from peak, Ethereum is down 55% from peak, XRP is down 60%, Solana and Dogecoin are down 65%, Cardano is down 75%.

“Stablecoins” like Tether are now breaking the buck and trade below par. While dozen of “stablecoins” went totally bust in last decade.

Memecoins - including $Trump and $Melania - are down 95% .
NFT indices are down 95%.

Pump & Dump, Wash Trading, Ponzi Schemes were 99% of crypto standard operating procedure.

Now this whole Ponzi scheme house of cards is unraveling . Read my recent column on why and how:

Wow.

Even WaPo editorial page (WSJ-lite) has figured out that the Trump administration is raising Americans’ electricity costs on purpose to funnel ratepayer dollars to its big fossil fuel donors.

I make no apology for posting this photo. I think it’s a photo that will haunt America in the years to come.

This is what you have become. If you defend this, have a word with yourself.
