All the more reason to be skeptical. These VC/Crypto boys live in a bubble. https://a16z.com is hard crypto!

No, but it does mean that someone (e.g. the authors company) might just put money into the idea.

They don’t even need to BS very hard if they are a partner in the firm, and sponsor a “vetted” team that they think can pivot from something stupid to something profitable.
