JRI: Just Read It

here's how it went from my perspective:
> shadi worms her way into my feed
> starts encouraging me (softly, but persistently) to get hyped
> keeps trying to get me hyped (I don't lol)
> finally shares the website; as promised, I read it
> ask Shadi to remove Degen iconography (hats everywhere)
> she seems weirdly desperate for my approval and for DEGEN's participation; I decline, pending an actual product and not just some ponzu with extra steps
> she removes Degen logo (mostly) from website
> I promise to revisit JRI once they have a... product... and not just a dubious financing mechanism.
> fast forward a couple of weeks, the project is doing well ostensibly (ie, the token price is up only for /reasons/)
> shadi circles back around to me for an "investment of 10k"
> I decline, again. Something is... off. Either they're incompetent or...
> they rug

…. is it a good or bad sign that this is my first time hearing about “JRI” (and still don’t know what it is) 🤣
