You seem under the delusion that investment / acquisition etc happen based on merit.

More often than not, it's just about who knows who, back room dealings and favours.



In this case, you're wrong. This team is easily the highest IQ concentration in Bitcoin history.

No other group comes close; in fact, I would have said their only possible weakness was that they might have been too nerdy to raise a round. Luckily, I don't know shit about their fundraising skills. This is easily the most bullish news Bitcoin has had in years, in my opinion. Great team, fantastic tech and theoretical track record, and a technology that will build Bitcoin value and usefulness. What's not to like?
