Do obvious scams and people that went for them deserve any attention?
yes, nobody calls Odell out, he grifts millions of dollars in the space, he took all the money earmarked for Nostr that Jack Dorsey gave OpenSats and made sure it all went to his friends to make useless fucking trash and centralized services. He’s a persistent, continuous poisonous threat to Bitcoin, to Nostr, to peer to peer/decentralized rights, all the things he claims to represent he consistently sponges up all the social support and venture capital for to line his pockets.
In the above post, it is especially relevant, because he was raising money for Samourai supposedly to defend the rights of tool makers and users for Bitcoin privacy, but they never went to trial. Meanwhile, Sterlingov was actually appealing and will determine the law for us all, and the money that Odell stole could have gone to the actual case that was going to judge what our rights are.
You would know all this if you read the post.
