Santa Claus has been taken hostage and is demanding a ransom in cryptocurrency from the North Pole government.
Reuters reports that Christmas is in jeopardy. Former Grotto employee Trixie Cranberry has kidnapped Santa Claus and is demanding ransom in Bitcoin from the North Pole Government.
The kidnapper, known in the criminal world as Spreading Cranberry, who, according to the latest data, converted to radical Islam, is suspected of Slavic roots and connections with Russian intelligence services.
Journalists managed to find out that the desperate criminal invested in ICOs throughout 2018, losing considerable money. According to the wife, “One project turned out to be a scam, another was a hoax, and the third looked like a real business - physical address, telephone, everything was as it should be, until it closed after a call from these dudes from the SEC.” In addition to Bitcoin, he could agree to Ripple, but his wife is not sure that it is suitable for his MetaMask wallet.
Cranberry demands 1 Bitcoin to return the lost funds. Such a small amount puzzled everyone, but Cranberry replied: “Last year at this time, bitcoin was worth twenty times more, which is exactly what I lost on all these damn ICOs.”
The press service of the North Pole government is faced with a difficult choice. On the one hand, the ransom for Santa Claus, on the other, the investment in the XYO cryptocurrency, which the government made and is looking forward to profits, especially after the conclusion of a partnership agreement between the developers and SpaceX.
So far, negotiations for the release of the hostage have not progressed and the holiday for two billion children on the planet remains in jeopardy. Cranberry declares his endless patience and willingness to wait as long as necessary, right up to the start of the ICO main sale of the EQUI project.
