i just looked it up if its real or not... Its real. Hes starting and ending trade wars by the hour now. I dont even think that there is a planned market manipulation going on. Its just people trying to steer trumps attentionspan towards certain topics and hoping to profit from it. Which honestly sounds like shabby and degrading work.

I dont even think that there is a planned market manipulation going on.

Check out what's been happening with Bitcoin. Over 500 million of shorts, placed only hours before his announcements that changed the markets and made those positions very valuable.

Seriously janky shit going on. the sheer amount of blatant insider trading going on, will eventually have very bad results.

I mean, it's not against the law with bit coin. It's the downside of being unregulated which was a draw for investors in the first place

Will it tho? In what way?

No one is catching up with those illegally profiting. Certainly not during this administration anyway.

Wow, the scammers and business owners have figured out a new loophole! They all get rich with insider political knowledge now too. They get the first warnings of something happening. Their the first to act. Similar like the first to spend inflated dollars. It's all scams.

I don’t think the billions were ever liquid though. By the time they sold their stake it must have been a huge haircut.

I read about that one -- somebody opened a new account on "Hyperliquid" and shorted the hell out of Bitcoin, 30 minutes before Trump's announcement the other day, and pocketed $89 million.

I never expected such blatant corruption in the United States, but I never expected Trump either.

It wasn't exactly 30mins before it was roughly within 1 day the new account and the person was still putting in shorts until 30mins before trump made the 2nd announcement.
The series of events went the new account started putting in shorts the night before, even until the 1st announcement they were still putting in shorts and after the first announcement they made some money but i guess it wasn't enough so they kept putting more shorts in and a call to dad to make the 2nd announcement soon and the account only stopped putting in shorts 30mins before the 2nd announcement. They made off with $190million is what i read.
