What does this have to do with Pied Piper (or the "Silicon Valley" show)? Am I missing something in the article?

I read the article for the same reason, but I assume he's referring to the original Pied Pipe of Hamlin (ie encouraging everybody to follow the lead)

It's suppose to relate to the original childrens story about the pied piper.

But I don't think the author wanted to kill the children with bitcoin.
