Repurposing random shit from the cryptocoin world since those projects mostly failed, and by god will they find a use for these things.

A creepy looking billionaire isn't totally in charge of ActivityPub and can't get more power out of politicians by lending favors to them using it.

I have still never bought this reasoning. A far better approach would be to propose an ActivityPub 2.0 as an RFC.

In my opinion, as long as it is not an RFC, it will go nowhere.
