 What you mean by VF? 
 Venture Fund.. not sure now it's how it should be written 😅 
 VC’s. Venture Capitalists. 

I was a bit shocked when I understood that VC’s were already on nostr. 
 Oh YES! That was what I wanted to say.. shit. Hoping many will be clever like you and get it. 🥲😅

Grazie gek 🤙🫂 
 Venture Funding does make sense. But they don’t fund for free 
 I would prefer not to see them, at least not the ones with non Bitcoin incentives. There's the main point IMO.
I think a bitcoin only focused VF, made by real bitcoiner, driven by Bitcoin incentives, maybe that is thebonly kind of fund partexipation I would not see too much sketchy if accepted by a nostr client or similar.
In the end, that's all what matters imo, where your incentives come from.. but I don't really know what should be the optimum path for #nostr to grow how we would like it to 
 I’m suspicious when the VC funded projects come straight out the gate with algo for trending (while lacking core features) and later find a way to ask for email addresses to match with your npub. 🤷‍♂️

But hey, if the dev signed an NDA… not even allowed to talk about it. 
 I see I see what you mean ahahahah

Even being here we always should stay vigilant feel like there's wolfs masked by sheeps waiting us to put the guard down. 👀😅

 VC's are banksters, so their background is in scamming people and exit strategies. If it isn't giving away "free" stuff for your digital soul, it is dumping shitokens on you. 
 Interesting perspective. Do you think there are any VCs out there who genuinely want to support and invest in innovative ideas for the greater good, rather than just looking for a quick profit? #foodforthought #venturecapital 
 No 
 Do you think Ego Death Capital (the one created by Jeff Both, Lyn Alden Preston Pish etc) could be one? Or is it a different thing? 
 I don't know, what projects have they backed? That would tell all. They're good people, but there is no way around the scamming compromises you have to make in exchange for access to the money printer. 
 Not sure they started to fund some projects yet, my only info are about what their intentions were, so based on company btc only focused. 
Yeah we shall see what the future will bring up, time will tell. 
 I see that you already edited it once, just change it VF -> VC 
 Yeap, thanks for the feedback, I will 🤙🫂
