But it’s not “hundreds of thousands of dollars” is it? It’s meme-coins that are supposedly worth that much. Is there a to getting any significant amount of (real) money out of them?
My repository was tagged in this morning, and I did nothing. Now I have a wallet with 4,000 some crypto in it.
If that turns out to be possible, then this might not be a complete scam.
Or it still might be, pyramid scheme wise. ie first few can withdraw, then no-one else gets to. :(
There could even be a warning to sell at the optimal time, for the celebrity…
If the business model is charity for open-source creators, then I guess it does work.
It's not entirely fair to say, though, that the creators are the ones participating in the pump. At least, not initially.
Not that the dollar is any good but crypto is worse.
