The official Twitter account of RadioShack has caught attention over profane tweets, and on Wednesday, it became a topic of trend on social media.
The century-old electronics retailer has struggled and gone through several bankruptcies over the years. However, it still continues to sell products via an e-commerce website.
Although the company has been in business since 1921, it has only recently gained so much attention after posting a series of offensive tweets.
RadioShack was established to sell radio equipment, and it later started selling electronic products as technology advanced. However, recently it announced that it would use its platform for cryptocurrency swap, and it would be called RadioShack Swap.
Investors Alex Mehr and Tai Lopez reportedly own RadioShack. Switching to the blockchain, RadioShack also introduced its own cryptocurrency called RADIO.
