They should make an nft of it.

Hilarious all the Metamask support bot scams this person is getting. Twitter should clean that up!
In the video he actually talks about how important memes are to the crypto/NFT crowd. 
sweet watch
Incredible.

Can someone explain what aWETH, and Armstrong ETH vs. Aave’s aWETH mean here?

Also what’s going on here?
These are all fake scammer accounts.

Seems like they’re workshopping through the idea that giving a random NFT the ability to drain your whole wallet is maybe a little too much power.

it’s not the nft, it’s this website’s supposed staking contract they tried to get the guy to sign that was malicious. shady websites are the problem, therefore all websites are scam negative sum ponzis

Simmer down. Just trying to understand everything. I’ve been reading about this all morning. Shit is wild.
Just make sure to tell the NBA stars never to visit any shady websites. Because if one of them gets scammed like this, they’re going to tell the rest of their peers all about it and then poof - no more NBA money.
Oh, I don’t really understand your point then unless it’s that social media platforms won’t police this bullshit. It’s like what @ChrisV was saying earlier about email being even less secure. If I’m not mistaken, Apple just rolled out something called “Email Privacy Protection” in iOS 15. I have my inbox set to only filter a through things I’ve whitelisted these days and rarely check it. Have DMs turned off from every discord server except UP and some others that’s just friends. Then there’s the T-Mobile thing you posted about. These tech companies are fucking terrible at protecting people.
Just think it’s hilarious that in a thread about being scammed - a significant % of the replies are low effort scam bots keying on terms like “metamask”, “trust wallet” and “atomic wallet”. I can’t think of a time I’ve seen that on twitter outside of Trump bots.
You’d think twitter would clean those up at some point. I’ve been reporting them all morning as I read all the replies to that thread (a lot of replies can only be seen by clicking on each post in the thread).
The novelty is the only reason you find this interesting. Replace crypto with credit card and everything’s the same but you don’t care.
me: hey my broke friend from online said you nba players are too dumb to handle your shit
kevin garnet, a close personal friend: he sounds racist
me: yeah he does, now that you mention it. thanks kevin
kevin garnet: hey, call me kev
me: sure

Man you guys just love to put thoughts in my brain.
Yes new things garner more interest than old things. That’s why it’s called “news”.
Sure credit card scam is around. But that’s largely call centers in Thailand reading off scripts. And I’ve watched a bunch of those videos too because I wanted to see how they operate.
This stuff seems a lot wilder. That was a really involved social engineering scam because they could see he had $129M sitting in a public wallet. And yeah that seems to be the biggest mistake. But that’s always been the whole point. Not everyone is going to make the right choice when public ledgers are the default.
A lot of the people in the twitter thread who seem fairly knowledgeable about crypto are asking similar questions about how not to get scammed.
