I mean, if I, as a crypto critic, saw an opportunity to suddenly make hundreds of thousands or millions on a fully legal but shady crypto scheme - purely by piggybacking on some other loudmouth (Yegge) - I'd be very hard pressed not to take it.
Perhaps, I can't say with 100% certainty that I wouldn't if offered 50k+ just for writing a blog post. But in doing so I would also have to accept being labeled a "crypto shill" instead of "crypto critic" for the rest of my life.
