      dont forget coinbase and how much Paul vouched for that awful grifter Brian Armstrong. some families out there are now fatherless because they lost money on the shitcoins promoted thru and offered on coinbase. imagine enriching yourself by having poor ppl transfer over their life savings and causing suicides. this is what Paul & YC/crypto proponents are okay with since its not illegal.

        Did Paul ask them to handover the money too? There is such a thing as using our brains and then living with the consequences of our decisions.
