Thanks for your reply! I get that same crypto spam, too. I'm now getting way more spam than legitimate customer DMs, so if it keeps up, I'll probably close my DMs and link to my company contact form.

I mostly just think it's funny that through a series of automated flukes, this is Google's top search result for "Chicago cults". The first fluke being that Yelp's SEO factory backend generated a page dedicated to t

Coinbase was part of the YC Summer '12 batch. What are the odds he's referring to Brian Armstrong? It may be a long shot, but that would at least explain why the concern from his friend is noteworthy.

Any thoughts on why SBF lied to the Vox reporter about it being a hack? https://www.vox.com/future-perfect/23462333/sam-bankman-frie... Maybe he just didn't want to have to explain some breaking news to her.
