I think they could have made more with just better ad copy. Send 1 get back 2 just stinks so much like a scam, most people wouldn't do it. What if you just asked for a donation in some good cause, and frame it as a contest between Elon and the other billionaires?
Also use different addresses per account. Should be really easy.
- recursivecaveat 6y agoI think the hacker has to be some insider who knew their window was closing quickly, because the ad copy does seem incredibly lazy. Like if you had Musk 'crowdfund' the next Tesla, while Biden announces that the USD will be pegged to Monero if he's elected, and Apple takes 'deposits' for the next iPhone, it seems like you could have done much better. Maybe we're overestimating the relative value of the big-name accounts though.
