It's funny how big-brain techbro-types discover someone else's whitepaper and suddenly think they're the smartest person in the room.

What do you base this comment on? To me this sounds like a guy that believes in an idea and wants to make it happen. It's not relevant that it's not his whitepaper.

I base this comment on being a Bitcoin speculator since 2014, and knowing the exact same 'nerd-fuzzies' feeling that Dorsey feels right now. He'd be better off spending that money on food donations if he wants to be remembered positively.

You can't have fuzzy feelings about another man's whitepaper. ;)

In all seriousness though, Jack Dorsey got involved around 2017 I think so it's not like he just discovered bitcoin.

If he's really been involved for 5 years, it's absolutely mind-boggling that he's ignored all the other projects in this space that have failed. It will be a shame watching his project join them, but I guess that's your prize for failing to loop the community in on your community-based crypto platform.

all other projects that have failed on Bitcoin you mean? web3 landscape has been growing steadily on Ethereum in recent years.
