spoke with a serious crypto vc who said he's sick of seeing pump & dumps, that he wants to invest in meaningful apps that leverage useful innovations like USDC (his specific example) i then asked about recent investments he could share and he unironically replied: Catizen ... this is Catizen: https://catizen.ai/

Every "serious crypto vc" that says they want to "invest in meaningful apps that leverage useful innovations" still ends up doing the same thing as always: demand token warrants they dump on retail. I don't know if they've gotten so used to saying the line that they actually believe it or they just enjoy lying to founders, but either way the malignancy on the industry needs to be excised, and the only way to do that is to stop giving them the time of day. "But our LPs demand it!" they cry. But to issue a token that fulfills the warrant also triggers securities laws, meaning it will never happen, or at least not accessible to U.S. residents, so they're either lying to their LPs too, or they're okay with stripmining other countries' retail populace.

I think many start that way and genuinely believe it but the reality is that so often these scenarios quickly devolve into eat or be eaten. After awhile it becomes second nature. So in a way founders are equally liable for the current meta. It is what it is.
