e: One of my clients when I was doing e-commerce consulting was literally just importing cheap sunglasses and accessories from China and selling them at a 10-20x markup because they had a 'luxurious' logo with a diamond on it printed on the side and they were making money hand over fist :psyduck: This is what 90% of new online-only "brands" are.

God, that sunglass spamwas really bad for a while. It was hilarious to see how much money people were willing to spend on cheap garbage drop shipped directly from aliexpress.

China: bans all crypto

Also China:

quote:

China is Getting a State-Backed NFT Marketplace on New Year’s Day

Two government-backed entities in China and Huaban Digital Copyright Service Center are launching an NFT marketplace in the country on Jan. 1 2023.

[...]

Chinese private firm Huaban Digital Copyright Service Center and government-backed entities are set to launch a non-fungible token (NFT) marketplace on Jan. 1, 2023, according to a report by China Daily. The two state-backed entities behind the marketplace are China Technology Exchange and Art Exhibition China.

[...]

While NFTs have been gaining popularity in China over the past two years, cryptographic tokens haven’t witnessed as much interest as in the US and the rest of the world. Chinese traders are still not able to buy NFTs via crypto because of the country’s laws. In addition, they are not even referred to as NFTs but rather as ‘digital collectibles.’

Moreover, these collectibles are currently not traded on open platforms in China. Instead, they can be bought and sold only through closed, highly regulated marketplaces.

As if these Chinese haven't been rugged enough by their government during the past 70 years.

So does he not realize that specifying 'legit legs" implies that he has knowledge that there are legs - of his own company - that aren't legit?

Presumably he realized this when he and his top employees were arrested for financial crimes, but you never know with crypto guys.
