    ah thats why there are so many people willing to do this

    i wonder why the price is so high for something that’s already premined and does not offer anything new

      Yeah - if everyone gets 50$ and only half of them cash out then it’s not possible to have enough demand to not make this thing fall into oblivion.

      I really wonder how they plan to keep the value up once it has settled?

        This thing doesn’t need to hold up a second longer than the time the founders need to sell most of their premined tokens.

        They likely can and will keep it going for a bit longer via money coming in from new investors.
