here's mine on their foray into smart contracts https://davidgerard.co.uk/blockchain/2021/09/06/news-the-eos-ico-was-a-fake-pump-cardano-smart-contracts-fail-cycling-vs-nexthash-microstrategy-de-indexed-el-salvador-live-tomorrow/

cardano is a shitcoin for traders to trade like a shitcoin and it pretends being written in Haskell by a mathematician who failed to get his degree, lied about going into a Ph.D program and claimed to have worked for DARPA but did not makes it very interesting and not just a shitcoin. this turns out not to be the case.

tl;dr UTXO was always fucking stupid if you wanted a system that did more than be a basic shitcoin

if a family member is into cardano nothing will get through. charles is a mathematical genius you see.

yeah. it's important to remember that in general, charities are fucking incompetent and suing them for being useless MFs tends to do nothing useful.

Someone who really hates you can try to make trouble using the statements, but it's mostly trying to get the IRS to pull your charitable status. But the IRS is also aware there are a lot of dumb assholes who try to make trouble. Depends if someone serious can make it stick.

The main issue is if the IRS thinks it's a scam in charitable clothing and not a genuine charity. But I think that our friends are very sincere in their charitable purposes and generally incompetent, and the IRS is extremely used to that combination.
