Yet another “brilliant” scheme from a cryptobro. Naturally this caused a gold-rush for scammers who outsourced random people via the gig economy to open PRs for this yml file (example)

It’s sad that a lot of the username come from Vietnam (my country). I remember when the Stellar airdrop announced there were people trying to buy GitHub account for 3-5$ for “their company’s project”. Many people do the thing that called “MMO” like that here, that doesn’t realistically provide any value. They just want to get rich as fast as possible with only simple jobs such as copy and paste.
I greatly respect the way Vietnam has put things like stable rice prices over Western money. As far as I understand it, this allows for a society where nobody lives in abject poverty. But it also prevents people from getting rich quick by milking their own people. So if I got all of this right, it’s not surprising that some people encountered the idea of getting rich quick through the Internet and try that now.

lol… no… not at all
Damn, I guess there’s multiple ways to do that.
@flying_sheep probably yes, but if you are looking for a country where people are not living in poverty, where the state takes good care about them or where scammers can’t get rich quick, then Vietnam is unfortunately not it.
