Pablo Escobar’s brother launches anti-Trump crypto fund

The PRES crypto has plunged in value

Earlier this week Roberto Escobar, brother of Netflix’s favourite drug kingpin Pablo Escobar, launched a GoFundMe campaign to raise $50 million in a bid to impeach President Trump.

He claims GoFundMe pulled it and has now decided to continue fundraising efforts with the introduction of an Ethereum ERC-20-based stablecoin pegged to the dollar. This goes by the name of…wait for it…Escobar.

Check out the project’s website for more details.
