In this day and age, I unfortunately have to have an alternative source of income to sustain myself. How the fuck do I get started with cryptocurrency?

    Keep in mind that pump and dump schemes always consist of someone getting fucked over. Either you’re getting fucked over or you are fucking someone else over. I prefer to avoid those situations.

    I guess to a lesser extent, it’s the core of capitalism.

      Didn’t say Pump and Dump for a reason.

      The one I got involved in, I knew the people and it looked like they were legitimately trying to develop a product. It was 50/50 pump scheme/real project, since they never did a rug pull. They were honest with themselves about most investors not giving a shit about their project, who were going to sell high anyway.

      Sometimes it’s hard to tell if something’s going to be a pump-and-dump until they dump.

          Yeah no worries. Didn’t mean to sound defensive. Making sure people know that pumping a coin isn’t the same as a pump and dump, and yeah, anyone getting into crypto should definitely know about all the rug-pulls.
