I've been spending a lazy few hours surfing the web, and I thought I would snoop around and see what two guys I can't stand have been up to lately. I wondered about Benjamin Lawsky, architect of New York's infamous Bitlicense. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BitLicense

Turns out he left NYDIG and has now joined Norm AI, a legal compliance firm:

He went from writing legislation to making money helping entrepreneurs try to navigate the onerous law he created. Maybe now he'll do it all in reverse. Leave Norm AI and go back to "public service" to challenge the LLMs with more ridiculous regulation.

Meanwhile Barry Silbert has recovered from his humiliation at DCG, and he's now working at Yuma:

It might be tough to defraud people in this type business, but I have faith he'll figure something out.
