Right, and then she gets less time than people who shoplifted a few times.

Yes, I meant this post more as 'doesn't a16z get he is being scammed here?'

Anyway this reminds me a bit of 2005 when there was an Asterix and Obelix comic where there was an invasion of space aliens, one of who was called the Nagma. Which went over a bit badly as it read as a weird freakout about how popular manga comix suddenly were. (So good job VCs you are not only behind the times, but 20 years behind the French! (I mean this as a light ribbing, I love the French/Belgian comics))

Sure in digital monopoly money, but how much was that in real money put into the system?

Ah yes the advertisement which causes T&S people (who have seen some things) to go on long rants on why you should never put pictures of your kids online publically.

The question (which doesn't matter) now is, does he really understand crypto? Or did he get at the right conclusion because he thinks that everybody else, like him, is just scamming all the time?

Kudos to Robin Guo and Jonathan Lai for managing to trick a16z to pay them for writing and researching this kind of shit. Turn your hobby into your work and you will etc.

I wanted to make a joke about artisanal mining, but then I saw it was a thing and how mostly horrible it was.

If there is an elevator in the apartment, the driver has to take the stairs, contractually. Of course people who order that don't live in high rise apartments where the driver can reach the door, so everybody wins.

I hate how it is called mining, like it is digging up some resource from the earth. While it is just an advanced calculator.

Imagine they found a hidden iron ore mine (That is what I recall being mined in Sweden, if anybody knows something more interesting, like some precious stones, please inform me (looking at this gold/silver could also work)) under a hospital. But nope, just a hidden datacenter.
