People act interested/surprised that a credible VC like Variant would shill Lens & BitClout in a positive way. That is the curse of interest bearing assets. Everyone was shocked in 2015 with the emergence of the Bitcoin Maximalist (term didn't exist yet). My boss back then told me: "U know they call them >maximalists<"

More context? Where/how we're they shilling them?
