Sometimes just one trigger word is enough to get a person fully engaged.
🎙 Former CEO of Signal Moxie Marlinspike was quite critical of Telegram in an interview. He stated that
— Telegram allegedly has access to a copy of the messages;
— the project was originally conceived as an unencrypted alternative to WhatsApp;
— and the creator himself is a "Russian oligarch" who managed to convince the world of the safety of his product.
The formulations are controversial. The context is sharp.
But the most interesting thing is the reaction.
Of all the accusations, the public response specifically followed the word "oligarch". Not on encryption questions. Not on hints of a lack of full anonymity. But specifically on the status and label.
Coincidence?
🧠 The psychology of public figures is simple:
technical details can be ignored, but reputation labels cannot.
And this is where the most curious part begins.
The interview itself, by the way, was watched by only about 2 thousand people over a few days. A small reach. Almost a "chamber" conversation.
However, the response post on X spread to hundreds of thousands of views.
It results in a paradox:
a person with a huge media resource itself amplifies the info occasion that would have passed by most without them.
Sometimes the ego is the best marketer for your opponents.
🤔 And another question:
if the reaction follows even on a niche interview, what is the probability that public figures monitor even small channels?
The world of crypto has long turned into an arena not only of technologies but also of personal triggers.
