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)

    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.

          @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.
