I watched the original interview (2020) and I found it interesting, most of the things sounded plausible.

At some point during the second interview he starts to digress about current society, inter-human relationships (or lack of) and technology, the "dangers" of the meta-verse and so on. This is ok, but it is more of an informal conversation between two individuals that are not experts on those fields, and it has to be put in perspective as such.

It also shocked me quite a bit when he went into details about his financial situation and I felt a bit disturbed about his vigilante-like statements regarding his hacking activity to "protect" the people that needs protection.

At some point in this second interview I was not sure if he was talking about actual concerns regarding society and technology or if he was just projecting his own personal struggles and worries about human relationships, isolation, and meaning of work, life and everything else.

I also found it way out of character and not aligned with his narrative when he said how much BTC he has.
