Many of them were even sponsors!
Of course.
Three VCs - Sora Ventures, Tally Capital, and Fenbushi Capital - are investors in BTC Inc itself, the parent company of Bitcoin Magazine and the Bitcoin Conference.
It's VCs all the way down.
I always assume any VC funded company (rather than a grassroots community project) is never "uncompromised" as it were.
If there's a potential to make profit by shilling scams, and it's at least kinda-semi-legal, the VCs who probably have more board seats than the founders will make them do it.
I mean, it's founding by the most wanted shitcoiner was probably a bad omen too.

I honestly don't know much about it, but looking at the Crunchbase profile of BTC Inc and seeing it's been funded by three VCs and has acquired three other companies is all I need to assume it's just the same as any other company backed by big money - no ethics, just profit.
