This is exactly why crypto has a terrible reputation.

Every time the market gains a little credibility, something like this happens. A meme coin pumped by a celebrity, people piling in with no understanding, and then—boom—someone gets left holding the bag. How many times does this have to happen before people learn? This isn’t investing. It’s gambling with terrible odds, and the worst part is, it preys on regular people who just want a shot at making money. The SEC cracks down on everything else—where the hell are they when it actually matters?
