There was a short period on the tftc pod where they were sponsored by compass mining when compass first started. 

After a while they cancelled the sponsorship because they said that they were concerned about the business model and ethical nature of it. 

Soon after they canceled sponsorship many plebs were rugged. Although I will say, Odell warned people ahead of time so they could sell or self custody their miners from compass. Unfortunately, many people did not heed the warning and quickly it was too late for them.
