Some fighters will receive bonuses in ‘stablecoins’ issued by Trump family business World Liberty Financial
The Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) announced on Friday that it will pay bonuses to fighters in a form of cryptocurrency issued by Trump family business World Liberty Financial at the heavily publicized White House mixed martial arts event on Sunday.
The development connects the Trump family’s financial interests to the high-profile UFC competition being promoted on government property. The competition on the south White House lawn is scheduled for 14 June, Donald Trump’s birthday.
The UFC said some fighters will receive bonuses in World Liberty Financial crypto called “stablecoins”, whose value is pegged to the US dollar. World Liberty named the currency “USD1”.
Greed is eternal.
And 10% of investors do make money on crypto! So you could be one oc them! It is like lottery just with all of your life savings spent on it!
My absolute favorite part is Bitcoin/etc coin ETFs. Why the heck would you not do self custody if you decided to invest in a lottery ticket?
