A bit outdated. Now pitch "transforming real estate with AI" and you'd have $10m in startup money. No need to play penny slots.

That doesn't work as well since you want people with crypto wallets you can steal. People applying for a blockchain company are far more likely to have this.

  • It's likely to work. It's the same dudes.

    Scroll back through any AI evangelist's twitter (if they are still on Twitter, and they are) and it is better odds than a coin toss that you find they were an evangelist for either NFTs or crypto.

    I mean the CEO of OpenAI is also the CEO of a shitcoin-for-your-iris-scans company, for one.

    (Prosaically: these things are usually spear-phishing of some kind anyway, are they not?)

"We are an AI startup using the best practices in AI and ML insights"

Looks under hood. Linear regression. Many such cases.
