I remember VCs were saying the smartest people they know are quitting big tech to go work on crypto & NFTs and I was like “nah”.

By definition quitting your job to go work on NFTs disqualified you from being the smartest person anybody knows.

I suppose it depends on the nature of the “work” and how the compensation was structured.

Something with minimal effort that let them cash out first long before the suckers, that might have made sense. Though probably not ethical.
