I mean, to really make bank, what you need is for those digital assets to be worth something, right? So here's the plan, we just make a game that's really fun and market it so that it becomes super popular, trick people into playing it, you know? And then every day those rubes will be paying us money for digital assets we make for free, and for a 30% cut Steam will deposit it right into our bank accounts - clean, laundered cash. After five years or so, when they're starting to catch on, lose interest, we end ongoing support and just disappear off into the sunset with the money...

Hahaha sometimes it does seem like scams are so clever and involve so much work that the people involved would be substantially more successful in almost any business.

There's an added benefit in that sociopaths get to hurt people in scams.

Count me in! I’ve got a bank account we can use to funnel the money

They'll never know what hit them.
