Imagine how the HN users who disagree with that feel. It is beyond fatiguing. I’m frequently reminded of the companies who added “blockchain” to their name and saw massive jumps in their stock price, despite having noting to do with blockchains¹.

I don't mind the companies that got a temporary bump from adding blockchain to the name.

I'm more concerned about the Twitter hype-men and women adding '.eth' to their name and singing DeFI praises all day long....and then quietly removing it without so much as a word, once the hype is dead and keeping the '.eth' makes you look like a sucker.

BTW a lot of influential people were on that train, current CEO of YCom being one of them.
