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”.
Do not pass Go.
This is right out of The Boys
It’s closer to the opposite tbh. The Boys more often than not outright mimicked reality to make its commentary obvious as opposed to actually practicing good writing hygiene. It didn’t really have anything further or more unique to say than: “look, US politics and culture but… superhumans!!!”
This so fucking crazy, you can’t invent it.
Is this the same crypto that you can’t cash out without Trump’s permission?
That’s like worse than getting nothing.
If what you’re saying is true, then getting paid in Monopoly money would literally be preferable.
I’m rolling my eyes so hard it hurts.
Ok, ok, ok, it hurts…but does it hurt as much as being repeatedly punched in the face then not being paid for it?
Corpos are really desperate to reintroduce scrip.
Good. That’s exactly what they deserve.
USA, USA, USA, USA
Dana white looks like a scrotum holding its breath.
Okay… And?
lol.
trump: here’s your payment. [hands the UFC fighters a box of twinkies & ho ho’s]
fighters: …
It gets better and better.
Probably foreshadowing of the EPIC GRIFT that is yet to come if the DonOLD crime family get their way:
We are already back to company scrip huh?
We sure are regressing and declining quickly, anyone have an altimeter for this bird? Would be awful if we crashed.
