Can you point to a single YC crypto / "cryptocurrency-adjacent" company that is a "grift"?

Who determines whether it is a grift?

I would cite Coinbase. But if you don't agree that it is a grift, what have we shown?

I don't follow the YC applicant space that closely. Is every rejection posted publicly? Cryptocurrencies do have some true believers, but there are also some of those that aren't. Hence by sheer statistics, we'd be safe to assume they exist in the YC applicant pool.
