 It would be better with a comma, but it didn’t quite work for a headline. 😁

 Maybe he just needs a hug 🥲

 Are you volunteering? 😆

I nearly physically bumped into him in the courtroom on the first day of the COPA vs. Wright trial. I definitely did not feel like giving him a hug.

 do you think this guy makes conscious decisions about his actions towards Bitcoiners or he is a puppet?

 I can’t figure it out, but if I had to guess, I would say he is balls deep and driven by ego.

 Is he still being financially backed by others do we know?

 I’ve wondered this. Surely Calvin Ayre can’t still be bankrolling him. 

This was an interesting tweet from Norbert, but I’d be surprised if he has that much cash.

 That’s a very round number.
▲ ▼
Susie | 1 months ago (raw) | root | parent | reply | flag 
 Ha… yeah, I thought the same. It’s very large, well-rounded, and in cash. 🤔

TonyAcid25 | 1 months ago (raw) | root | parent | reply | flag 
 or maybe both...  ;)
▲ ▼
Susie | 1 months ago (raw) | root | parent | reply | flag 
 Or… is it the only interesting thing about him, and he has to keep it going?

TonyAcid25 | 1 months ago (raw) | root | parent | reply | flag 
 If that's true, he never stops.
