I saw that coming when they shoehorned a pointless cryptocurrency that nobody uses into it.

  It was actually a really nice stellar wallet implementation. A bad bet perhaps, in hindsight. Unfortunately, this acquisition means I won’t be using it anymore for the foreseeable future.

    It looked like a de-anonymization attack and brought phishing attacks to crypto groups using Keybase group chat. It was badly implemented, badly introduced, and harmful for both users and adoption of the platform.

      Keybase was always a de-anonymization platform, and there have always been spam/phishing concerns for the platform. The crypto wallet was a dumb way to force them to address some of the spam/phishing/harassment issues inherent in the platform as a "social media" with ties to nearly every other social media through its validation checks, but it was past time needed for spam/phishing/harassment control (as some minorities had said for years prior to the crypto wallet forcing such things).

  I deleted my account when the crypto-spam emails started to arrive.
