Makes sense. In that case it's basically activist investing; trying to fund projects you believe in while hoping to make a return at the same time.

I've just been burned enough by "anons" to be wary. Not sure if you were in the scene back then, but I lost a few BTC to TradeFortress back in the day. That's actually one of the factors that went into me selling out of cryptos for several years.

Oh I did mine some BTCs back in 2010 (or was it 2009) then I completely forgot about cryptos until ethereum came along, so yup, kinda missed a lot of the early day shenanigans. But i dont think such attempts are going away..

Yeah, I'm pretty wary of anonymous players at this point. I think that Bitcoin is the future and that regulation still has some part to play in that future.
