> any person or company that has ever incidentally done anything with cryptocurrency

But Filecoin IS a cryptocurrency. It's not merely "incidental".

Of course it is. Cryptography libraries can be used for lots of things. If one of his clients uses them for cryptocurrency, it is incidental.

Look again at the logos prominently displayed in the blog post. There's nothing incidental here and you don't get to make that kind of money otherwise...

That still doesn't make him a "crypto bro", any more than those companies using cloud providers makes the cloud providers cryptocurrency specific. They require stuff that's pretty universally applicable.

Or change my mind and show me which of his projects is cryptocurrency-specific.
