 Holy fuck, were you there for that? Josh Garza was one of the first major con artists I encountered but what I always remember was Stuart Fraser from that wall street firm giving him legitimacy.  
 I recall calling out Garza and getting a ton of flack from folks who were getting scammed claiming it was legit. Same response as when I called out bitconnect. 
 There was a cult like following on the forum - I looked because I wanted to explore remote mining and post GAW some of us managed to make it work for a while, but since then, lesson learned. I had to kick a load of bitconnect shills from several meet ups and was very unforgiving given what happened with GAW
