I'm also not sure why people are super surprised about Nic's investments. If you're at all aware of Castle Island and the things he's said they invest in, you'd know.
However, it does seem like he's relatively shy about admitting the shitcoin alignment when he's on Bitcoin podcasts or discussing Bitcoin/stables. I think this is the main reason folks are upset with him, and perhaps also why he is being so defensive. He was misleading by frequent omission.
That said, I still think Nic has great Twitter game and is super thoughtful/articulate about the space.
truthfully, if you were unaware of nic's firm and investments, thats on you.
we say we verify, seems like some people didnt.
honestly thats the more surprising thing, so many people being caught off guard, or astonished.

Really like him as well. I suspect he's playing to the audience when on Bitcoin podcasts. This predictable overreaction for failing purity tests is probably why.
He'll be fine after laying low for a bit. These cancel culture mobs move on quickly. Breedlove seems to have made a decent comeback.
