He has chosen to monetize his podcast through the traditional sponsor model. No value for value. Both BlockFi and Compass were sponsors. I wouldn't go so far as to say he has been wrong about everything, but he's made mistakes.
It sounds to me that his monetary incentives inform how his information is going to be presented, which informs me as to why the show should be ignored in its entirety. I can be advertised to anywhere. I don't want someone to make the advertisement more palatable for me.

I see your perspective, but his guests don't kowtow to him. Matt Odell pulls no punches with him abour BlockFi, and he's still a frequent guest. In fact, in the latest episode I heard this morning Odell is still giving him shit. Peter is honest about his motivations and fuckups.

I mean, that's a perspective you can have of course. More fruitful conversation happened as a result of BlockFi advertising on his show than happened anyplace else. I think Pete has done more for the space by engaging with these issues directly and publicly than any podcaster I can think of.

I agree, and I'm sure yesterday's episode with Matt Odell about blue check twitter changed some minds besides Peter's.
