Crypto Traders Apparently Spam Truth Terminal Into Pumping Coin Associated With Brian Armstrong’s Dog
The traders appeared to have made a quick profit, selling quickly after the price jump.
RUSSELL, a meme coin, briefly rallied Wednesday after the AI bot Truth Terminal tweeted the word in response to a post from Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong (whose dog is named Russell).
The bot did this after someone spammed it with the word "Russell," leading some observers to conclude the action was the work of traders who amassed a large RUSSELL position and then sold after a quick pop in the price.
I think it would be good for you to tell us about Russell first. Specifically, what is Russell's species?
