These billionaire ghouls just don't know when to stfu
I honestly cannot imagine being THAT rich, being able to do anything, and still being such a massive piece of shit
I don't think they can afford to, if they're betting on this technology. They have to use their public influence to convince as many (important) people as possible for as long as possible to squeeze as much money as possible. After all, if these successful CEOs say it's good, other CEOs may be swayed as well, and they're the suckers that'll end up deciding to spend the fruit of other people's labour on infrastructure and tokens.
Oh sure they have to influence, but I would expect them to do so a bit more on the down low. If they have a whiff of self awareness, they know this will just do more harm than good to their interests.
