Crypto being the solution to the bot problem is the most techbro take I have seen so far.

At this point cryptocurrency has a bad enough reputation that they have to try and ease readers into it.

(insert clown getting dressed meme image here)

1. It's new digg!
2. AI is bad (but also sexy and all powerful)
3. so captchas are hard :(
4. let's make a real fancy captcha!
5. With... Zero-Knowledge Proofs :D :D :D :D :D (all non cryptocurrency people flee at this point)
6. Also like NFTs for products you buy so when you shill them people know you're at least a real person doing so (maybe, kinda, sorta)
7. So anyway I was thinking if only there was something else as dystopian cool as Sam Altman 様's orb thing and we smeared it across the entire internet
