On a practical note, is anyone here a member of Friends With Benefits DAO? (yea not what you think if you haven't heard of it before!).
Curious to understand the value people are getting from being part of that network which at the time of writing costs a sizable ~ $7800 to join for full membership.
- DyslexicAtheist 5y agohighly recommend the missing cryptoqueen podcast. the parallels of the motivation/aim between the people behind OneCoin and things like the Ethereum or IOTA is very clear.
- monkeydust 5y agoHave listened to it, It is excellent and anyone investing or building in the crypto space should listen to it. However I don't buy that Vitalik Buterin = Dr Ruja.
- DyslexicAtheist 5y agoI don't think Ruja / Buterin are the same. But I do believe there was a point when Ruja believed that she could actually create a currency. Once she invited MLM grifters to peddle something they didn't understand and were hugely successful in it, it became an opportunity to continue the grift. The parallel is that both started something that has become too big to fail in the eyes of the founders. Ruja is 100x the grifter that Buterin is but both used an approach where they have been promising something for so long that it's hard to walk back on that "promise". That type of personality is very common in Tech I think
