The Trump Effect, A Warning For Crypto Newbies

[Ndabagi01]

Donald Trump Jr have just announced that he is going to launch his own DeFi crypto platform, his aim is for it to serve as competitor to the banks. This is coming in his Father’s bid for the presidential seat and also looking at making bitcoin a more viable option in finance in the USA.

Newbies and Trump lovers should be aware of such platforms because it’ll only attract users to them because of their influence and not for what bitcoin and cryptocurrency should be known for. Privacy and security are very important in cryptocurrency, if the party in question is not providing all of that, don’t allow their influence or persuasive words to fall for their innovations.

There was TrumpCoin (DJT) before now wish have failed in the past. There’s no two ways about it, don’t leave your coins in this platforms when they come to live. Your coin is not worth risking for a politician, they’ll always serve their interests first before looking out for you.

I thought I replied to this type of thread today (not in this board though) - it was still talking about Trump’s son making an announcement on X relating to crypto.

Take a look at the thread^[1] - if you feel this is different you can leave it but if it’s the same as the other one you can lock this one and continue the discussion over there.

I don`t think so.
Trump is a very successful entrepreneur, he has done a lot of good businesses that have been a successful. Long before he was the president. He knows who to make a business work, and this is not because of his influence.

We don`t know if it will lack privacy, certainly wont lack security.

This wasn't created by Trump.

The two might look related but it is not the Same content, Trump jnr is announcing a lunch of a crypto platform and OP is warning members of it which isn’t the same as the other thread at least that’s what I think.

I don`t think so.

This isn’t about him rather about his son so in my perspective it doesn’t carry same faith as Trump Snr. And even if it is trump Snr I wouldn’t still get carried away because this is a different kind of business which is more like entrusting one’s finances to them, the risk still remains no matter who is involved.

Yeah it is just some crypto devs creating shit tokens, there is more than 5 of his memecoins going round just like for top celebrities too. We keep warning people mostly newbies to stay away from tokens like this. I am sure even Trump doesn’t know of some of this shitcoins

Trump is a very successful entrepreneur, he has done a lot of good businesses that have been a successful.

Some of his businesses have also filed for bankruptcy more than once, so he also knows how to run a business down as well, lol.

I don't know why this is making headlines, Trump Jr said he wants to create a DeFi crypto platform to "take on the bank", it sounds like a buzz-phrase to me and i would not pay much attention to it right now. He said it is still a long way from now before we see this, so there is really nothing to discuss about the project right now, no roadmap, no details, it might not even come to fruition.

I can sense that everything that comes out from his mouth this time are just to boost his father's presidential position and that people will think that they will have a lot to look forward for Trump as well as with Trump Jr. So it's more on a kind of deceiving the people for me.

However, the said platform is still very early to create a conclusion, it may take quite some time before it will be realized, or may end up the other way around.

Especially during the ongoing campaign fever, Trump is all out to gain the support of the Bitcoin community. They have done their research, and winning their support will convert to votes.

I have Trump winning against Biden, but now that Kamala is in the picture, Trump must triple the effort; I'm still waiting for Kamala's stance on Cryptocurrency. If she supports Bitcoin, the Bitcoin community will be divided, and Trump will lose all his previous gains.

Excuse me, is Trumpcoin officially owned by DJT?

Buying crypto because of the influence of politicians or artists is wrong, because crypto adopters should understand a lot about what they are buying, not who gave them the influence to buy. However, providing false information is also wrong, as far as i know JDT has never launched any token project, i have only heard about his NFTs.

One of the major killer of most cryptocurrencies start up is the fact that, their want to replace one existing service or platform instead focusing on providing an alternative to those existing project that their want to replace.

And because many of such projects that focus on replacing instead providing alternative have died a cool death, so anytime such phrase as replace is use I give them a cool head.

Non-Fungible Tokens are the basic investment for these whales and its been nothing but a good stand for everyone that have postive mindset. There's certainly one thing we should know about the space, it's been controlled by the top influential men in the world and its very commonly possible to either sit at the edge of losses or using opportunities to bag more profits for ourselves.

That's why it is part of being a businessman. We all can say that he has a lot of experience in running a business from his failures and successes. As for the project, I would do the same as you about not giving much attention because of it is just an announcement as of this time unless he shows us like the roadmap and other details about the project.

Re: The Trump Effect, A Warning For Crypto Newbies

You cannot successfully separate influence and hype in cryptocurrency. This industry is about numbers. We had had the Elons effect during 2021 bull run and this time around could be for trump. Guess what!
If Elon makes a post about dodge now, people will still rush to doge. So, let's manage the industry and its nature.
