So, you know, a lot of people know of Dogecoin, which is themed around the Shiba Inu dog. They're also sometimes just themed around sort of an idea or a person or, you know, just sort of. whatever is capturing the public attention at any given moment. And the idea is that you buy in and all of the attention causes more people to buy in.

And if you're really good at it or really lucky, you're one of the first people to buy in. And so you buy in at a low price and then you sell after everyone else has bought in and pump the price up higher. That's the idea. In reality, it doesn't really work that way. It's full of insider trading and market manipulation.

And it's not sort of a fair game where anyone has a chance to be one of those early people. But that's sort of the shape of it, at least. And so I guess that brings us to Libra, which is the coin that Millay was convinced, I guess, to endorse. Yeah.

Like, yeah, we're in. sort of a post ironic world at this point where crypto and the U.S. government are somehow completely intertwined. And I guess we should probably mention that just before Trump took office, he launched his own meme coin, which was the Trump token, followed very shortly after by his wife launching the Melania token.

And they did what all good meme coins do, which is that they spiked in price based on the original interest. And then they lost everyone a bunch of money once the price came back down because with meme coins, people lose interest and move on to the next one. And, you know, the Trump token shockingly does not have enduring value. Yeah.

I mean, it's really cynical. Like if you actually talk to people who are deep into meme coins, either creating them or trading them, there's this broad acceptance that like, oh, yeah, it's totally a scam. People are trying to run off with the money after they launch these tokens. Like there's all of this market manipulation happening.

average everyday people who are, you know, seeing these stories about people buying in super early and then making a million dollars out of thin air. Like that never happens. Those aren't average people. Those are like deeply sophisticated trading bots or people with insider knowledge. Like everyone knows this and openly discusses it.
