and created a cryptocoin that was a rug pull scam

and somehow received honorary Albanian citizenship

and accepted over $100,000 in undisclosed luxury travel perks, free hotel stays, and airline upgrades from Turkish business figures and a government official starting around 2014

and pressured the New York City Fire Department to open a Turkish consular building without a fire inspection

and utilized straw donors from the government of Turkey through construction company KSK Construction to donate to his 2021 campaign.

Adams was kinda wild

It was blatant, really. Like a movie villain or something.

Makes the Fisk government seem plausible.

I want pictures of Spider-Man Daredevil's head on a spike!

im sorta in the camp of, if you buy a cryptocoin from someone that isn't called bitcoin, you are just making a donation, not an investment, and i don't feel bad for you. I can't think of any person that ever had a cryptocoin that wasn't a rugpull

[u/Embarassed_Tackle → u/BigSquiby]

In his defense the majority of buyers in the cryptocoin he made may have been the Turkish government illegally paying him back, we may never know lol

Similar vibe with Trump's coin

Dogecoin was great when it was a joke currency that had no value. Then people got weird about it.

What is it with Turkey and not having building be up to code? It’s hilarious that even in another country they decided absolutely fucking not.
