Thinking cryptocurrencies are a scam and then sharing a stage with Craig Wright at his own project's conference (after being warned by many people ahead of time) is a little like thinking Trumpism is a scam and then speaking at a QAnon conference.

It's just a completely nonsensical and baffling thing to do. As someone who generally likes Taleb, it made absolutely no sense to me. Craig Wright is essentially the most archetypal and most egregious cryptocurrency scammer in history, to the point of absurdity, and basically leads a Q-like cult full of delusional followers.

It's not about being negative towards cryptocurrencies. It's the completely contradictory behavior.
