Edit: I saw this online and assumed it was satire. After some digging, I was actually able to find the actual craigs list posting: https://washingtondc.craigslist.org/doc/tlg/d/washington-seat-fillers-needed-june/7857143452.html

I am not sure if this is a joke CL job add, or if it's a serious call for seat fillers. Replying to the CL add to see if it's legit, or bullshit.

"Paid in cryptocurrency" there it is

Here’s your $1000 in crypto.

Why did you only send 930? No, wait, 720. ah, I get it. It’s 1,004 now. Quick how do I convert these 845 to dollars? Let me make an account on randomExchange and send all my 428 crypto tokens there. Now complete KYC to cash out 167, entering my bank account and… success! I finally managed to get my $2.65

Definitely not Doge or Melanias crapcoin

That's a dumb take. Unless you sit on it, you'll sell it and get most of that value.

You really think they aren't going to give a shit coin that tanks before people have a chance to sell, or some other shell game?

I think if it were me I'd be prepared to sell immediately. But to say it has no value isn't close to correct. You can sell a trump coin today for roughly 10% less than you bought unless you hit that big spike in October.

I'm not saying that all of that isn't insane, but you could 100% get something that has real value that can be traded into traditional currency.

It would be fantastic to sign up to see if you can work to get paid, devalue actual supporters value, and maybe get a chance to shit stir and important fascist event. Sigh, a man can have his pipe dreams 😑.

To say it has no value underestimates the opposition and ignores an unfortunate dumb as fuck reality IMO.
