@philsteckny.bsky.social - is there someone from your office I can chat with about ao8966?

You keep citing it as if that’s the actual use case?
It’s not and many people working on web3 things dislike it as well

Pretending like crypto is only used for mlm is like pretending like e-mail is used for scams.
It happens, it’s bad, but that’s a function of people not the tech.
