This is just awful and incredibly stupid any way you cut it Part of what’s so sad is celebrities and politicians can easily monetize their fame without scamming Like you can still launch a coin and not rug, leave the LP alone, create some utility (like meet and greets with holders or governance votes on what tiktok dance you do next), be upfront with people about what they’re buying into, don’t make promises you can’t fulfill (like solving antisemitism wtf), only sell slowly over time if the utility is working out You can probably make more money doing that and not trash your reputation or get sued Blockchains have created unprecedented, extraordinarily powerful tools for coordination, monetization, and value distribution And it’s real and working and being used by millions around the world, with more assets being tokenized and real business building on top And then when it comes to celebrities using blockchains, they basically just act like retarded scammers that don’t even realize the transactions are public
Eric Adams, former NYC major, has just removed liquidity of his new memecoin, $NYC, scamming investors for over $2,536,301 He launched a $NYC memecoin just 30 minutes ago, and has removed its liquidity after promoting it on his personal social media, claiming to be the NYC token

Just grab some PulseChain $PCOCK it’s the coin that actually delivers for long-term investors.

Which is why we have unruggable memes on Starknet.

Meanwhile those of that us are trying to build legitimate products have to work through the stigma that this creates of crypto being a scam 🫠 Very frustrating to see this happen time after time.

Tbh I’m in shock no one has done it yet. I keep waiting and still no one has executed. I’ve worked with some of the biggest online talent in the world - there’s such an obvious play here for someone with a community / following to properly launch a token with long term upside/benefits where creator and fans can win. I guess I could just stop complaining and just get to work… Maybe I’ll do just that.

I have to agree with you 100% this needs to stop and I feel it’s been exacerbated and normalised by the “trench” culture that’s taken ahold of the industry over the last 2 years.

Imagine you’re a washed political figure > you take the high road, add value to society + do paid talks and stuff > you see the sitting president has launched two memecoins with little recourse. for the less ethical, the choice is probably the latter

It's 2026, and this guy is able to rug in this way, doxed, and not having legal consequences? I think the issue is actually in the law at this point.

Given bonding curve dynamics, I am actually less convinced any celebrity memecoin can actually survive even if you don’t touch LP Volumes down the line are never enough to challenge the launch, even with utility Not even when it’s the President

Very true. The problem is that celebrities without a knowledge of how the space operates haven't been provided a clear path to success, instead they are often mislead by shady characters. Fortunately, at @thepanth3on, our celebrities have a simple and safe path to pay their holders with the monetization of their fame and reach. A new economic layer to solve the fragmentation crisis and accrue value in unified tokens.

This is the downside of permissionless networks, anyone can launch anything. I bet he moves to Dubai and is never heard from again.

Emphatically this. Time and time again we see meme coins use case utterly wasted and used as a cheap thrill pump dump. So much cool potential. Utterly wasted.

It should have some vesting lock-in by default for token launches. Trustlessness is always the better approach.

Blockchains are great at making behavior legible. The depressing part is how often people still choose short-term extraction over long-term reputation - even when the receipts are permanent.

Why do you care about how others issue their tokens? You should be focusing on UNI's market cap management instead. Why does UNI's price keep dropping? Shouldn't this be a wake-up call for you? Don't wait until UNI goes to zero to regret not managing UNI's market cap.
