Let this be a lesson that the business comes first. Security is important - but the business is more important.

Sound security practices enable good business, e.g giving teams a paved road (https://www.slideshare.net/diannemarsh/the-paved-road-at-net...) that enables rapid and secure releases in place of gates.

At least from what few accounts I've heard from engineering in Twitter, it doesn't sound like Mr. Agrawal has much faith in this idea, but that just means he'll be the first to go in the event of the next inevitable breach.

Watch it be over something dumb like stolen NFTs.

It is often failure of the security leadership when security is not aligned with business goals.
Agreed, 100%
