What’s clear is that Yupp’s recent $33 million seed round – led by none other than a16z crypto – is much more than another funding announcement. It’s a really big red flag, a flashing neon sign pointing towards the collision course Web3 is hurtling towards with… well, reality. We’re referring...
$600 million. Let that number sink in. That’s less than what Donald Trump just announced in net-negative income for 2024 – just for that year. The figure is truly mind-boggling.

That perfectly chaotic and free digital Wild West that is Web3 is having something of a reckoning. Nike’s now deep in a class-action lawsuit over its RTFKT NFT collections, and frankly, it’s about damn time. Never mind the so-called “rug pull.” The true tale behind this case is what it...
