Utopia Talk / Politics / Hostess debuts $TWINKcoin snack cakes

nhill Member	Tue Jun 21 16:43:26 LENEXA, KAN. — Hostess Brands, Inc. is launching a limited-edition snack called $TWINKcoin under its Twinkies snack cake brand. The new $TWINKcoin is a play on the current cryptocurrency frenzy and features coin-shaped cakes. The cakes are similar to Twinkies in composition and flavor — featuring a vanilla sponge cake exterior and crème-filled interior — but have been made in a disc shape to mimic the shape of an enlarged coin. The new $TWINKcoin snack cakes will be available at Walmart stores starting at the end of June for a limited time. They are distributed in boxes of 10 individually wrapped cakes at the suggested retail price of $3.49. http://www...s-debuts-twinkcoin-snack-cakes As far as I can tell, this isn't satire.

earthpig GTFO HOer	Tue Jun 21 17:26:29 Twinkies don't go bad, so these new stablecoins should hold value pretty well. I think it's important to remember the transparency value of the blockchain, and always maintain your own keys when buying the NFTs. Did I buzzword in cryptobro well?
nhill Member	Tue Jun 21 17:31:39 Pretty close. Basically you're saying to own the $TWINKcoins under your bed and not hold them in a custody service for the $TWINKcoins yield ;) It's less for transparency and more for reducing counterparty risk, is the only slip up. But I'll give you a B+ (although that's nice because I should dock you for the cryptobro term, much cringe, pls never use again).

earthpig GTFO HOer	Wed Jun 22 11:37:01 I think I may have some fun with this. Me: Wifey, I have an exciting new investment that can never go bad. It's a paradigm shift towards sustainable no-lose wealth creation, and I've already invested! Wife: <obviously in her head thinking I bought into a pyramid scheme or something> Me: Whip out box of twinkcoin Add some dramatic flair in the middle
