Former Third Lady and illegal immigrant Melania Trump’s lame auctioning of a hat she once wore as first lady packaged with some of her NFT bullshit was expected to reach a minimum opening bid of $250,000 worth of the “SOL” cryptocurrency but with the recent crash in crypto assets the final maximum bid reached Wednesday was the equivalent of $170,000 in SOL, the New York Times reports. “SOL” is short for “Solana”, the blockchain on which the cryptocurrency is based, not “shit out of luck”, but yes the joke writes itself. SOL tokens had been trading at $170 when the auction was originally announced, but declined to $90 each of 3 am EST when the auction closed.
The “I really don’t care, Do U?” lady had promised a “portion of the proceeds derived from this auction provides individuals who have been in the foster care community with access to computer science and technology education,” without saying exactly how large the said portion was. For all we know it could’ve been next to nothing while she pocketed the rest. Might as well assume the worst given her family’s notoriously brazen history of charity related scams.
