From the quotes in the article, they didn’t just “not disclose” so much as “lied”. Regardless of subject matter, when someone cares enough to make sure something they don’t want to be associated with isn’t involved and then they find out it actually is, they have a right to be upset.

They didn’t lie, though.

The quote you refer to said:

“Aware of the crypto thing,” he tweeted. “We were told there was no NFT/crypto component but looks like that may not be the case. Waiting for responses to our emails/phone calls like others.”

Which is true: blockchain ≠ crypto. While it is the technology that crypto and NFTs are based on, blockchain can be used for a wide variety of different purposes.

  Coincidentally there is no use case for blockchain a part from crypto…

    Not so. There are plenty of use cases that already have better solutions.

    Coincidentally this article is about a use case that isn’t crypto. Clearly you didn’t read anything more than the title.
