Yeah, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with people trying out cool blockchain ideas in a personal capacity, as long as you avoid getting sucked into the speculator orbit. And I wouldn’t object to someone donating lottery winnings, so I similarly can’t object to people who just gambled on memecoins and donating the winnings or whatever. (I can advise against crypto investment on the grounds that there’s a good chance you’ll lose your money, however).
Where I draw the line is in encouraging other people to jump into the speculator bubble, which FTX undoubtedly did with it’s atrocious superbowl ad. This goes quintuple for charity orgs, where reputation is everything.
