Fun revelations that SBF was going to try and invest in Elon buying twitter because he thought it would make money (lol), and was seriously proposing “put twitter on the blockchain” as his pitch. One of the dumbest ideas I’ve ever heard, right behind every other “X on blockchain” proposal

Jack also thought that twitter belonged on a blockchain, which is because he too is dumb as hell

If twitter did get put on the blockchain after Elon bought it, it really would be “X on blockchain”… ba dum tshh

Greatly relieved to hear from Will that he had no culpability & is just a victim in all this
