And yeah, I start to believe that somebody is just using his name there, I've seen no reference about this "wonder" token on his twitter.
It's been on CNBC, so it should be safe to say that he at least consents to the use of his name:
https://www.cnbc.com/2020/12/04/apple-co-founder-steve-wozniak-is-starting-a-second-company-efforce.htmlWhat I found funny with that article is, Bitcoin was mentioned, praised, and then it went on with the story that he launched a new “cryptocurrency company” called “xxx”. I went to the website, it shills a “xxx” token.
It's not funny, it's a way to promote something of your own, but to attract an audience you have to tell them first what they want to hear, and when the co-founder of Apple says Bitcoin is
"the most amazing mathematical miracle", people are thrilled and sure will take a look at his project. In other words, "
Bitcoin is a miracle, but I have something even better."
By the way, Steve Wozniak has become known to the crypto community in 2018 when he fell for a cheap trick and lost as many
as 7 BTC, which does not really portray him as an intelligent man - because if he had the attitude he has today, he would certainly have acted differently.
To be completely fair, I can't find any reference of him talking about his token on that event. The article just decided to promote that on their own. Woz is probably being genuine here.
But yeah, I'd say it's likely that Efforce is just using him as a figurehead. It's not much better than active involvement, but that's something at least.
