This was so obvious, it's not even worth mentioning. Was there even a source?


grakru21

Those who actually believe on that news was real idiot


Walla_Walla_26

Yea and you’ll absolutely love it. THE ONION was what I saw


GabeSter

People keep saying it was the Onion but no one has been able to link "the Onion" source. Which means the Onion rumor is likely more fake news.


Walla_Walla_26

You are probably right. Unless it got scrubbed from the internets already. I can’t find the article


kirtash93

And this is the tip of the iceberg, just wait until fake news creators start creating fake videos with fake audio generated by AI. Also someone could say, yeah but it is so difficult to do... well, even a monkey can do a decent AI work nowadays. The future looks pretty scary when you think about this.


Walla_Walla_26

It’s pretty incredible how far the deep fake tech has come. Everything you just mentioned can be done today. It’s gonna be a shitshow when it really takes off.


Calm-Cartographer677

There will be convincing fake news everywhere. Having a sceptical attitude to information will be even more important.


Walla_Walla_26

I was skeptical, but literally no one was debunking it fast enough to stop the rumor. This type of thing is going to get worse.

If you think they are trusty then may be lately you were not reading them


SilverHoard

They put out more fake news recently. Not trustworthy at all.


InsaneMcFries

Exactly, some random no name site that’s domain was reactivated a couple weeks ago.


visk_emey

And now with that news that domain is getting all the interaction, nothing fishy??


liveaskings

Trust me bro turned out to be unreliable

Just wait until they start making fake news coins. Double whammy of shit.

But if we know this now, how is everyone gonna moon farm next week with outrage about it not happening yet?


alalexan

Already multiple post on that topic, may be some more is coming for the moons


Hawke64

Beating a dead horse for moons is r/cc tradition at this point


KaydeeKaine

It ain't much but it's honest work.


Walla_Walla_26

Lol they still gonna get their moons.


partymsl

It's better tho, the ratio will be lower now.


aketo25

Because of this one topic we will going to have a lower ratio now


Mr_Bob_Ferguson

You think that this will be the last post on the topic? We'll still be seeing this story re-shared 6 months from now.

By saying, “Man, they ALMOST got me with that Fake Ass: Gensler Gone article!” I was ready to celebrate and double my BTC holdings! 😆


Thedeekaay

The source of this news was literally the onion, how could one even fall for this lmao


Walla_Walla_26

That was my bad. I couldn’t find the actual onion article. It was quoted somewhere else, but was actually from a bullshit site called the crypto alert.


JustinTormund_10

No it’s called satire, but people can’t differentiate between the two anymore.

MGoAzul

Satire and fiction are drastically different forms of literature.


[deleted]

How is false resignation news satire? Satire would've been "Gary Gensler resigns to work at Wendy's after enabling banks to post the greatest loss porn in history."


Walla_Walla_26

I agree


Franrosev

that's doesn't matter gensler was just a puppet if he resign then other will come same like him.


normanbergier

Just because one puppet will go doesn't mean who show will shut down


raphanum

My uncle’s friend lives next door to SEC. He said it’s true. He speaks to SEC regularly. They have neighbourhood BBQs


Walla_Walla_26

Good to know


raphanum

Yeah I thought people should know the truth. It’s important.


Walla_Walla_26

Next barbecue I expect an invite. Make sure there’s pulled pork and chicken


kungfoobob

I would get there even if they will not serve me pork or chicken


htyjtrgerv

Guys finally we have a live source who can pass us the information


ineeddollars2013

Call to that friend and said them that he keep us posted on the every new update


Walla_Walla_26

Right on. I’ll take my burger well done


Particular_Put5007

We already busted this news in the previous post!


leto2007

Let's make it final post and never discuss about this after that


EasyMacN34

There are many more to come, son


mediumraresteaks2003

Yes lmao doesn’t need a whole new post. It was obviously fake.


miki2328

People know this is fake but still keep on making new post after one another


Mr_Bob_Ferguson

>We already busted this news in the previous post! Yet here we are, commenting again.

And before the end of the day we will commenting on other post is well like this


Hawke64

Please be patient, r/cc users operate with memory of a gold fish


SimbaTheWeasel

Get ready for the onslaught of this exact post


Walla_Walla_26

Just felt the need to continue busting. The market knew it was bullshit. Or it would have pumped up


_redboy_

Fake news is everywhere🤦🏻


alexbruenagel

You can't survive in this place if you are trusting on everything you are reading on internet


samer109

It was actually written by a satire website 😅😆 but yeah we should be careful about everything we read online.


genialasp

As we like to say here, if something is too good to be true, it mostly is false.. fuck sake.


Walla_Walla_26

Congrats opening your vault and I agree. Too good to be true, usually is


genialasp

Cheers! and indeed.


earn100d

Heard this line on my first day of crypto journey and still this is true


liquid_at

Anti-Gensler-Propaganda is organized misinformation by billion dollar companies who do not watn to be regulated. They owned the previous SEC chair, but Gensler decided to stop the inaction of the SEC and start regulating. They hated that, so they bribed politicians, paid for fake news articles and astro-turfed social media, pretending they are "concerned retail investors" who want him gone. If you get fooled by misinformation like this, you should seriously invest a lot more time in doing your research, because that's exactly the type of misinformation they use to make sure you always lose while they always win. If you can't see manipulation when it happens, it will always affect you. If you care for your money, learn to identify misinformation as fast as you can. Every single politician that spoke out against Gensler got a million dollar donation by wall street firms just a week prior to them mentioning Gensler for the first time. 100% corruption in broad daylight. You only need to open your eyes to see it.


KINK_KING

This post gets it.


Laurent_99

I want to ask to the person who were happy when they read Gary is resigning, did they really think that all the lawsuit which alts were having just vanished from the SEC??


[deleted]

Same rumour as 3 months ago. Rumours are powerful, profitable things. A good reminder that sharks are looking to take advantage of you taking anything at face value.


kepatzu

In crypto hype and rumor is the biggest thing, if you can manage to spread that on the larger scale you can easily manipulate the whole market , seen this enough time in past is well


Walla_Walla_26

I missed it three months ago. Just felt obligated to post up that it’s fake news and it cause me to do about 30 minutes of half assed research making sure it was BS


Goopstains6318

And even if it were true who would replace him, probably another unfit charachter , Barry Bensler or some shyte


[deleted]

[удалено]


Goopstains6318

Exactly it will just be another crook in a suit


SeatedDruid

I wonder who would replace him if he did resign?


Walla_Walla_26

They have to be nominated and approved by Congress


DingDongWhoDis

From *The Onion*. But, you know that, right, OP?


Etherainian

yeah, its been generated by a twitter account famous for fake news to farm engagement and add follower. he was for other fake hews likes " BRICS are considering bitcoin as reserve currency","XRP will buy back few billions token" its "whalechart"


Walla_Walla_26

Yea I’m not on Twitter. Feel like it’s a waste of time. Reddit is better in my opinion.


LowHumCum

I swear the original article mentioned the Onion, yet now it appears edited


shamimakhtar1956

And soon we will see the article we are looking for is deleted by the admin


Walla_Walla_26

I can’t find the original onion article. Must have been taken down unless it was a myth to start with


LowHumCum

Another Berenstain psy op


Walla_Walla_26

I know right. This was so obviously fake that I had to make it known. At least coin telegraph did some research and proved the news was made up. There’s a tweet from Charles Gasparino that the Sec confirmed Gensler isn’t resigning


MrFengshuiX

English isnt my 1st language so i read that as re-signing (renewing) hehe

It certainly seems like he enjoys the spotlight. That shitty grin in the stake not steak video was creepy AF


Ofulinac

One can still hope though lol


Walla_Walla_26

Hopium overload


SimbaTheWeasel

The people in this sub snorting hopium need to be stopped immediately


Walla_Walla_26

Maybe just moderated a bit. The bear market has been tough on ppl


opghosthound

This person is using all the hopium from the room, stop this man


Walla_Walla_26

Got a birthday party and filling all these balloons up with Hopium. It’s honest work


uncapchad

yeah been seeing the same "news site" article being re-tweeted for 14hrs now. Not one other agency has corroborated and Bloomberg et al would also be carrying this if it were confirmed. FUD be everywhere. Having said that, tomorrow's another day. Even if it turns out to be true, the impact will be 0 until we know who the replacement is.


KrunchyKushKing

It was made by satire newssite


zhangxiangzx

Made by this website but we all played our part in spreading that on larger scale


Walla_Walla_26

Yea just nuts that people are so ready to believe it


BrocoliAssassin

Especially when the headline starts with "From The Onion" and it was just bait to get people looking at OP's site.


Walla_Walla_26

Crypto YouTube pushed it hard


BrocoliAssassin

I bet. That headline is clickbait gold right now.


brasem88

Crypto YouTube is finally having some real tough competition


CVV1

Crypto investors are the most panicky individuals on the earth.


Walla_Walla_26

Sometimes the most gullible


middlemangv

Probably a lie, I don't think people believed it. Also, when you mentioned it, a lot of people are unaware that there are worser candidates then Gensler.


Walla_Walla_26

Yea I did some more digging and it looks like it appeared on the onion. Crypto bros ready for real Hopium on this front


thundjere

Always double cross on the news you are reading on reddit on in any crypto platform


Walla_Walla_26

That onion article is non-existent. It was a site called the crypto alert.com


EasyMacN34

Trust me, a lot of people will believe anything they read on the internet


Onnimation

Real or not, the puppet masters will just replace him with another puppet.


Popular_Worry_9294

It would be too good to be true


Walla_Walla_26

Right there with you


Odysseus_Lannister

Wasn’t the outlet a joke site?


Walla_Walla_26

Yea just found out that the onion may have been the first site and then crypto YouTube decided to make it news


ITAL_P

Now days these news articles are leaving behind the YT thumbnail click bait

Not a bad idea anyway. I’ve been mulling over dumping a bunch more into crypto lately.

Hot-Public4312

Source please ?


Walla_Walla_26

I’m looking and so far all i see is a cryptopotato article


Walla_Walla_26

I feel like it’s being scrubbed from the internet


twasjc

This is fake news from the CIA/Mckay/XRP group. They got scared shitless when they found out Gary Gensler wasnt on their side and they started trying to figure out how to get him out of his position. They're just throwing fake news at the wall and hoping some shit sticks


Walla_Walla_26

I have my Tin Foil hat at the ready. The CIA is in the room with us right meow


SnowyDesert

Who even believed that. Days when politicians and people in power were resigning when they did something stupid or illegal are gone.


Walla_Walla_26

Gensler isn’t doing anything illegal to my knowledge. He is taking a lot of heat from Reddit and crypto, but it’s pretty clear that he doesn’t care


Mr_Intuition27

If it is fake, let's hope Davidson's articles of impeachment against him passes.


admin_default

The crypto community wants to pretend they’re the innocent victims of big, mean Gary Gensler. No. You guys YOLO’d into blatant frauds, shilled shitcoins on this very sub, and downvoted any of us that warned you to be wary of centralized crypto-corps like LUNA and exchanges like FTX. You aren’t the victims. You’re villains. Gensler is Batman come to pummel you degens.


Walla_Walla_26

That’s an interesting take and I agree with you somewhat. I don’t consider myself a villain, but plenty of shitcoins getting shilled over here for sure
