Presidential hopeful Senator Joe Biden took an opportunistic chance to raise money from the recent Twitter scam.
His Twitter feed included a snarky request for donations from anyone who wants to keep ‘Donald Trump a one-term President:’
I don’t have Bitcoin
BUY NOW, and I’ll never ask you to send me any.

Ironically, Biden’s Twitter account had been hacked the day before in what has become the largest securityOnce you've bought or received bitcoins; you now need to keep them as safe as possible. This guide will provide... More breach in the company’s history.
The tweet also included an interesting phrase, as Biden explicitly states that he ‘doesn’t own any Bitcoin.’ Furthermore, he refuses to take donations in Bitcoin, and will never ask for any. Some Twitter users found this humorous and the took the opportunity to throw a few jabs.
WTF is with the opening line … “I don’t have Bitcoin, and I’ll never ask you to send me any.”?!?

Others responded by mocking Biden’s reputation of being a bit scatterbrained:
You’d definitely forget where you kept your private key anyway.

Overall, the general tenor of the replies simply enforced the polarization of American voters. Most feel very strongly either for or against Biden, with little movement either way.
