Shit place. Shit people, with very few exceptions, and that list gets smaller by the fucking day.

May karma fuck every last one of you exactly as hard as you fucked everyone who trusted you.

Liars, profiteers, useless parasites and self-righteous moral frauds performing virtue in public while behaving like absolute pieces of shit behind the scenes.

Everyone looks after themselves first. Fine. But then shut the fuck up about community, technology, app, freedom and changing "finance" or the world.

You do not give a shit about any of it. You drain people of their money and common sense while larping as builders of something meaningful.

Meaningful, my ass.

Go help in a nursing home, homeless ppl, a hospital or a psychiatric clinic.

Support the people actually fighting to make this space safer! Ffs!

Do something useful for another human being without expecting liquidity, influence, engagement or exit liquidity in return.

Perhaps then you worthless fuckers would finally understand what meaningful work looks like.

Instead, this industry is crawling with glorified JPEG shufflers, referral-link parasites, insider-fed gamblers, paid shillers and spineless liars congratulating one another for moving worthless shit between wallets.

Most of you have built absolutely fuck all. You created an audience to extract from without work and a fake public persona to hide the greedy, cowardly piece of shit underneath.

Your entire moral universe changes with the position of your bags.

Then you sit in Spaces for 6 hours talking about freedom, decentralisation, community, winning, and changing the world while behaving like the cheapest middlemen in a rigged casino.

No courage. No principles. No accountability. Just bags, screenshots, fake conviction and selective outrage.

A landfill of useless, inflated egos fighting over digital garbage while pretending history will remember any of you.

Most of you will leave behind nothing.

Nobody whose life was genuinely improved.

And somehow you still expect admiration for it.

You are a swarm of fucking opportunists circling the same exhausted pool of money while the people you exploited are left holding the wreckage.

May karma fuck every last one of you exactly as hard as you fucked everyone who trusted you.
