Almost certainly a shit memecoin project. The Enron trademark was until recently owned by The College Company, [https://tsdr.uspto.gov/#caseNumber=88914633&caseType=SERIAL_...], a t-shirt and knick-knacks vendor that previously capitalized on the Birds Aren't Real meme (news coverage: https://archive.is/vZvup). It looks like the trademark was handed off to a new entity this year, whose address aligns to 'Ground Control Business Management', which appears to be a firm specializing in financial planning and 'family office' type investment management for wealthy individuals.

Further, Enron.com is currently hosted on Shopify (IP resolves to Shopify; page is stuffed with Shopify web assets if you inspect the source). This makes no sense for a proper corporate web presence outside the retail industry. The College Company's other pages are also built on the Shopify platform.

I might be wrong, but wasn't Mr. Robot's E-coin logo stylized like the Enron logo?

Art imitates life imitates art?
