So, yet another stupid PR campaign playing out in real time.

Promoting a project that has connections to keet.io and tether.com

To an audience that is generally skeptical and hostile to fiat VC shenanigans.

Really, I'm just seeing noise in my feed and everyone engaging with it is falling off my follows. This is why I have a smol follow list - too many people are prone to giving the benefit of the doubt but hey, at least most here are aware of the doubt.

#nostronly for the same reason I'm a #bitcoin and #golang maxi. Not one single case in history of VC funded protocols being anything but a fad and eventually a dumpster fire.

And in every case companies fund work on open protocols with extremely loose decisionmaking processes and permissionless - or simply tech that makes it easy to build real, disruptive businesses. Nover need the amount of marketing these things involve.

I have a rule - if it needs advertising, it ded. Sooner or later.
