A crypto ceo jumping on the latest fad in an overdramatic way to generate clicks??! What will they think of next!?

Seriously, why anyone listens to crypto ceos is beyond me. Modern day snake oil salesmen.

What's telling is that, even if his story is remotely true, his target audience for this tale are people who won't blink at potentially destroying peoples lives just for corporate point scoring or, worse, terrorising surviving employees into blindly obeying questionable actions. Anyone with an ounce of empathy would think how terrible it would be to be fired and maybe lose your home or end up in debt because your insane boss bought into the latest fad.
