Blockstream talks a big game about Bitcoin, but it's not contributing much in terms of Bitcoin software.

Saying Blockstream hasn't contributed to Bitcoin is a bit much.....

Yes, the author is clearly not a bitcoiner and has a strong agenda. Nonetheless, the treasury company hijinx aren't a good look.

This is a good question

And

Adam already have a lot of bitcoin so why being involved in this scam?

Now I see the departure of Rusty from Blockstream from another pov. Seems that he didn't want to be related anymore with this crap.

I read this. Its a great write up and I don't know what it all means. I don't know anything about blockstream mining... To me they were always a tech company that did lightning and hardware wallets and a few relatively small investments around liquid, nothing like what the article says.

People that according to the article buy that many houses and yachts... They can't even use all that crap so there are usually some serious skeletons and I hope its not as fraudulent and corrupt as the article implies.

The last thing bitcoin needs is another corruption scandal on its periphery especially one of this magnitude.

I have read the article and it really makes me worry... There are so many red flags...
