Crypto space is the hub of extraordinary stories and unexpected events, and the crypto community recently witnessed something fascinating from a remote corner of the globe. American YouTuber and online streamer Addison Pierre Maalouf, known as YourFellowArab or ARAB, stumbled upon a story that sounds like a plot straight out of a satirical comedy: Taliban fighters trading meme coins with the same enthusiasm they typically reserve for military operations. Addison Pierre Maalouf has taken the internet by storm with his latest series featuring none other than the Taliban fighters of Afghanistan.

While interviewing a Taliban fighter, he uncovered a hilarious revelation—these hardline militants are not just interested in geopolitics, but also in the crypto market and memecoins. The entire vlog can be watched here on <a href="https://youtu.be/6D94TTjylVU?si=xvNMXfkyckUL7gBq" target="_blank" rel="noopener">YouTube</a>. 
One person from this group hilariously shared his meme coin trading experiences, describing how he had made “good gains” with <a href="https://www.cryptotimes.io/2024/05/24/dogecoin-and-shiba-inu-inspired-dog-kabos-is-no-more/">Shiba Inu and Dogecoin</a>, only to lose it all through the classic crypto trader’s mistake: buying high and selling low. 
When the Arab posted this clip on his official X account his video clip get some humorous reactions from the crypto community. Users like Steven.SOL quipped, “Didn’t expect this part of the cycle,” while another user Jawi sarcastically noted, “Imagine spending years in the deepest of bear markets just to get outtraded by the Talibans.” 
The story took another turn when opportunistic internet users began creating meme coins inspired by Maalouf’s documentary. After knowing this&nbsp; Maalouf warned followers about these speculative tokens and raised his concern. 
<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow"> 
 Maalouf said, “We need to talk about something, Internet. People are creating random tickers based on my Taliban series, which was purely journalistic and adventurous. It’s hilarious, but if you’re not a crypto expert, be careful. You could get scammed and lose money, like I did. If you’re making money off my series, send some to my Coinbase address. I’ll pay my US taxes because I love the USA.” 
</blockquote> 
In a final post, Maalouf ended this drama by writing, “I’m paying my ransom next time with meme coins” and “Crowdfunding my next kidnap to save my life”—a darkly humorous take on this incident.
