Cuba apparently launched a memecoin then the devs rugged it… all this morning. Got up to $30mn. Below tweet from their Council of Foreign Affairs has since been deleted.Increasingly clear though this was a hack. – a user named Stats commented
Popular crypto trader Ash Crypto pointed out that in 24 hours this scheme was implemented for three assets: CUBA proper, CUBA 2.0 and Justice for Cuba.
