Flagged. I don't really think it's appropriate to say that Paul Graham "endorses" bitcoin just because his company has funded a startup that's going to try to work in that space. That's putting words in the man's mouth. Maybe he only thinks it has a 10% chance of working, but it'll be big if it does. Maybe his team is convinced that this will work, but he is not. Saying someone endorses something is making a pretty big claim about their thoughts on an issue. That claim does not have sufficient evidence behind it in this case.

Interestingly, Paul Graham's name is in the screenshot on the frontpage of the YC endorsed website (coinbase.com)

Probably a fake account made under his name on their test system. But perhaps not. It certainly doesn't count in my mind as evidence that PG endorses Bitcoin.

that said:

endorse 1) to approve, support, or sustain

it might not be exact, but I don't think it's that far off
