Taylor's ICO Tweetstorm
This is part of a series where Taylor pulls sweet comments she has made or found over the years in the hopes that they can be useful, searchable, remembered, referenced, and/or aid in the creation of future knowledge base posts. Many are unpolished & contain typos, specific references to previous discussions or the user, and gratuitous cursing.
1/ Alright Crappy Token Creators listen up. I am 100% out of patience. It's 10am. I haven't slept. And you are going to get to hear me rant.

2/ You do not provide support for your investors. You do not protect your investors. You do not help educate your investors.

3/ You do not help this community before, during, and only occasionally after you raise millions.

4/ You chase a goldmine of stupid money instead of helping Ethereum become what it should become. You promise lots, but deliver lost funds.

5/ Fake addresses, scambots, phishing, exploits, domain takeovers & phone hijacking have been happening since day one yet you don't prepare.

6/ Stupid mistakes (not validating user inputs) no extra effort (0 tutorials / 0 support) & lack of consideration for long-term is ???????
— MyEtherWallet.com (@myetherwallet) July 17, 2017
7/ You've been "working" on fancy marketing & cranking out DNS records on a pile of free services like there is no tomorrow. Game over.

8/ Don't think you are off the hook investors: You get some blame too.
— MyEtherWallet.com (@myetherwallet) July 17, 2017
9/ Throwing money at any address, clicking like theres never been a Nigerian Prince & not demanding more from investments is a problem too
— MyEtherWallet.com (@myetherwallet) July 17, 2017
10/ Step up your game. 2000 unique addresses in 2hrs fell for the same scam that's been taking money for years. Time to grow up.
— MyEtherWallet.com (@myetherwallet) July 17, 2017
11/ Quit the ICOs. More education. Tutorials. Guides on being careful. More legit wallet providers on more platforms. More tools.
— MyEtherWallet.com (@myetherwallet) July 17, 2017
12/ More due diligence. More research. More fear. More skepticism. More warnings and watching and recon. More security. More best practices.
— MyEtherWallet.com (@myetherwallet) July 17, 2017
END/ But most of all: more fucking teamwork & empathy. Get out of your silos. Help each other learn, protect, build, grow & grow up
