I do my own extensive due diligence before engaging with any project, as like many of you I am wary of the risks in the crypto space.
Here is my position on the points raised. /1
Kurapika was open about his past experiences in crypto with me from day one, totally unprompted.
He tried to launch DAO Nation, it was in a bear, it didn't work out, he didn't financially benefit from it. /2
He also did run a VC backed ICO ratings firm back in 2017/18 (I've verified this). The intention was to provide research to highlight both the risks and opportunities of various ICOs.
ICOs died with the last bear market and so did his business. It happens. /3
