The reality is that Coinbase through their due diligence process had to have known about these ties and how they may have been perceived by the media/crypto community and yet proceeded to buy it anyway because they are desperate to list new tokens to shore up declining revenue.
The deal was already signed...Coinbase can't just back out because they miscalculated the backlash despite the background of the founders being well known. The acquired team probably just gets to vest immediately and leave Coinbase without having to work for them.
- simonebrunozzi 8y ago> because they are desperate to list new tokens to shore up declining revenue. This exactly.
- beaner 8y agoAgree with the criticism of the acquisition but neutrino isn't product that helps them list assets faster
