Vitalik has been involved in earlier scams before the ethereum scam
He actually duped people into giving him bitcoin for "quantum mining"
Even Homero didn't lie that much

I didn't know anything about that. Tried to find some more infos and found this:

To be honest: I'm surprised! In my opinion it's about just two possibilities:
1. Intended scam?
2. "Just" naive?
I don't know of any other rational possibility here. And both of the above would be negative.
