I don't like "conspiracy theories", but that move was so obvious. The fanboys aren't capable of thinking in too much depth, but I'll lay it out:

If you have a twitter account that you hardly ever use, and you then visit a conference for something you're genuinely a fan of... why would you:

a) Only record a minute or two of the presentation?

b) Post your short clips to your twitter account that you hardly ever use (rather than youtube, for example)?

c) Only ever talk in the slack channel on that ONE occasion?



Clearly a PR move. And following on from there, I'm quite happy to believe that they've pulled similar stunts since.

The jury is still out on how Daparski (the thread mod) fits in. He was more than happy to ask a multitude of questions during the ICO and shortly after, but now he's suddenly their biggest fanboy, and seems to have lost his critical mindset. He's either drank the kool-aid, or he's working for them in some capacity. I'm leaning towards kool-aid, but who knows?
