Adams legally defrauds thousands, makes over $2.5M with a rug pull on a NYC themed crypto coin he has launched.

So the value dropped $400 million and Adams got $2.5 million. That's one shrewd criminal mastermind!

I don't think you understand the concept.

He ended up getting $3.5M by pulling all his shares out when the total float was $500M. That's what a rug pull in crypto is. Trump and Milei did the same thing in their crypto projects.

So who got the other 99+ percent of the money? The other $396.5 million must have lined someone's pockets. I'm more outraged about that than I am about Adams. Yes, I am outraged about Adams, but we're ignoring the bigger picture here.

Most of the $400M loss was just the sharp drop in price of that scam coin once its headliner Adams cashed out, it resulted in a loss of confidence in that virtual product. People did not invest $500M into that crypto coin, they put in a fraction of that and the price shot up for speculative reasons, but whoever bought in when the float was above $100M got burned, it's a classic pyramid scheme. The price might yet collapse to zero.

Imagine if Mamdani was involved in such a scam.

Well Adams isn't the mayor right now, I assume the outrage would be greater if he was.

^This was not his first rodeo in the corruption stakes, far from it.

I didn't say it was, just that he's not currently mayor
