Then why do they tell everyone about it?

Seems like a way to pump the price up just by press and not actually wanting to anything.

All the hallmarks of a pump and dump scheme.

Move the price? Talk is cheap... and so is 1 BTC per year.

This is just Bukele craving some attention. I hate the term attention whore, but can't find a better description.

luckily it said they're going to buy 1 per day. There are several days in an average year.

The more I'm eager to take a piss out of someone, more I emberass myself.

It's spelled embarrass, you wrote 'emberass'; would that be like someone who sits on hot coals?

[-] dutchkimble@lemy.lol 1 points 7 months ago

Uhh no, it's an em type of berass

Relatable. In our rush to say the clever thing we're thinking, we don't stop to double check that we read it correctly in the first place. I've been guilty of that too many times....
