Jamie Dimon, the Chief Executive Officer of JPMorgan Chase & Co., said that Bitcoin is a scam only useful for drug dealers, murderers, and North Korea. The brother of Pablo Escobar has launched his own cryptocurrency and in turn, seemingly helped legitimize the first two Bitcoin stereotypes.
Roberto Escobar, the biological brother of infamous drug kingpin Pablo Escobar, has launched his own cryptocurrency called “Diet Bitcoin” (DDX). Not sure how it’s the diet version of the popular cryptocurrency, maybe it has 20% less fat or no sugar because it has Aspartame in it.
“Dietbitcoin uses peer-to-peer technology to operate with no central authority or banks; managing transactions and the issuing of dietbitcoins is carried out collectively by the network,” the cryptocurrency’s website says. “Dietbitcoin is open-source; its design is public, nobody owns or controls dietbitcoin and everyone can take part. Through many of its unique properties, dietbitcoin allows exciting uses that could not be covered by any previous payment system.
If you can’t trust the brother of one of the biggest drug dealers in history to buy cryptocurrencies, than who can you trust in purchasing unregulated digital currencies? Roberto Escobar served more than 11 years in a maximum security prison for his role in the Medellin Cartel. Roberto was the accountant for the notorious drug lord and now he will be selling Diet Bitcoin through Escobar Inc., which is a “private investment company.”
The reason why Escobar launched Bitcoin Diet because he knows that the CIA created Bitcoin.
“I am the first person in the world…to publicly come out and claim that Bitcoin was created by the American Government, and I am not going to be the last person to say this. The world is going to wake up. The world is going to see that this was created by them. And when they see it, it is too late, and when the CIA founds out that the world knows about this, the CIA is going to sell all of their coins, and they will destroy the value of Bitcoin. I can tell you with one-hundred percent certainty, one-thousand percent certainty, one-hundred-million percent certainty that the American Government is going to ruin it all because they are behind the Bitcoin.”
Despite saying that Bitcoin is a scam run by the U.S. government, Escobar’s team modeled Diet Bitcoin exactly like Bitcoin and shares nearly all of Bitcoin’s technical specifications. The former cartel member wants you to know that his cryptocurrency is absolutely not a scam. “Because my coin is not a scam. You are free to buy the coin or not buy the coin. I don’t care. You can stick with your worthless coins. Keep the Ethereum, Keep the TRON, keep the Ripple, keep the Bitcoin. You will see what happens. They will all go to zero, almost zero,” Roberto said. “But not my coin. Because my coin, this is going to be my new work in life.” There you have it, a crucial member of the Medellin Cartel wants you to buy his cryptocurrency that is totally not a scam.
