Really wish I'd spoken up about this one earlier. Had that gut feeling—the whole vibe screamed extraction scheme, sketchy team dynamics, everything about it felt off. And yeah, turns out those instincts were spot on.
It's the classic crypto lesson though: you can't always trust what you see on the surface. Sometimes a red flag is exactly what it looks like. Hindsight makes it crystal clear, but catching these things in real time? That's the hard part.

I've long smelled that fishy smell, but I never had the courage to say it. Now I'm filled with regret.

Intuition... is the same for node validation. Data doesn't lie, but people do.

It's the same trick again, the red flag is flying high but some people still rush headlong into the gun barrel.

I fucking knew it all along, and nobody believed me back then.

Intuition is truly amazing; you can see through those trash projects at a glance.
