After calling bullsh*t on Luna, Celsius, and FTX well before any of them collapsed, I have a bit of credibility with the mainstream media. I want to use that credibility to call attention to the worst and largest of all the scam perpetrators in the "crypto" space, @a16z 🧵👇
Unfortunately, the formerly venerated firm sold its soul for quick profits and massive management fees. In this thread I'll compile some of the many, many tweets in which I've called out @a16z and their loudest partner pushing their fraudulent "crypto" efforts, @cdixon.
Here's the one where @a16z shilled Braintrust, a fake-decentralized staffing agency:

Here's the one where @a16z shilled Helium, a ponzi scheme pretending to be a decentralized Internet connectivity network:

Ever notice how all @a16z "crypto" projects deliver the same chart shape?

The ONLY way @a16z @coinbase @VitalikButerin and other "crypto" scammers can keep their grift going is to dangle millions in funding in front of the CFTC so they'll wrest oversight of "crypto" from the SEC.

Here's the one where @a16z shilled Axie Infinity, a ponzi scheme disguised as a game:

The SEC is finally paying attention, reportedly planning to force @a16z to disclose private comms related to their "crypto" "investing", according to @theinformation:

Here's the one where @a16z and the rest of the "Web3" charlatan industry get called out by Tim Berners-Lee, inventor of the Web:
https://x.com/coryklippsten/status/1588694949956313088
Here's the one where @a16z shilled Worldcoin, possibly the most evil project in "crypto" and "Web3" history, and that's saying something:
https://x.com/coryklippsten/status/1540853953155321856
I encourage all reporters and media with an interest in "Crypto" to take a closer look.
The ONLY reason @a16z is in the fraudulent "crypto" biz:

While you’re here, don’t think we Bitcoiners only have arrows for full-on crypto scammers.
We also don’t put up with orange-washing fake Bitcoiners here to line their pockets with ill-gotten crypto gainz, like @APompliano, shill of #FTX & #CryptoCom.

Poor Pump only fires blanks, then has to delete his tweets. Same as last time 🤦♂️ 
For those who've asked why I care, here's the answer:

This is ACTUAL signal, not the B.S. promulgated by crypto "VCs" like @a16z:

Easy to see how Ben and Marc could get sucked into crypto scamming, little by little, given their firm's approach to hype-driven investing.

History is written by the winners, and the crypto scammers bought their get-out-of-jail free card this election. Time to make peace, and enter The Age of Scambling!
On the plus side: if the "crypto" guys help fund the rollback of government overreach in all areas, well... 🤝

Let the retconning commence in earnest!

3 years later, and yep, @pmarca is still as gross as ever.
"Andreessen is at the nexus of all the ways society is decaying. He’s not responsible. He’s just representative. He’s the mascot of decay, the guy who’s always there when the negative trends accelerate, cheering them on and pushing things downhill faster."
