Conor McGregor has a knack for making money. From becoming the highest paid mixed martial artist in history, founding an alcohol empire, to becoming a fight promoter, the Irishman just has a head for business. However, surprisingly, his latest business venture—a memecoin cryptocurrency called $REAL, which was launched earlier this month, has failed.
The coin was put on pre-sale by the developers with a target to raise $3.6 million. However, on April 6, the developers of the coin informed the public that the $REAL coin had raised only around $342k, and failed to meet even the minimum raise of $1 million, let alone the target raise of $3.2 million. They promised to refund the buyers whatever money they had put into the crypto coin.
Of course, the world of crypto is pretty shady with sundry new rug pulls and pump and dumps a regular feature of the industry. However, the Irishman did not go that route. It seems ‘The Notorious’ and the devs have come through on their promise and returned all the money to all the investors of the $REAL coin. At least that is what Conor McGregor has claimed.
“This is $REAL!” the Dubliner wrote in a quote tweet where the devs claimed all the money invested in the coin had been returned to the investors.
