anecdotal data point: more people texted me about the hawk tuah memecoin scam than texted me about bitcoin hitting $100k

What about it is concerning? That memecoins get more attention than the boring gold equivalent? :P 

To me that’s expected. I feel like people are too smart for their own good here and aren’t tapped into how normal people think

Ahh you meant the negative side of things

Yeah hawk tuah is just reinforcing the whole crypto-is-scam mindset. I had this mindset until I joined the industry a year ago. Now I know that is not 100% scams, but only 90% scams/pyramid schemes 😅

I’m biased, but I think a dope mmorpg could change a ton of opinions, but those take 5+ years and millions of dollars to make

it is expected, and it is still concerning — there are negative consequences to a bad public perception and narrative, even if the tech could provide outsized benefits.
