@aoTheComputer Sam says the other team didn’t give him enough notice. Fair question: when he sued people around him for didn't obey him, including friends, fired people whenever he wanted, and kicked them out immediately, did he give them two weeks’ notice?
@aoTheComputer Lol a legitimacy smear campaign framed as a public good initiative. Classic Sam tactic: strategically moralize the language so supporting his initiative feels like the ethical choice, while opposing it feels like defending something harmful.
@MichaelBouchier@samecwilliams@fwdresearch 10:45 PM EST, not 3 AM. You’d be surprised how many ultra-luxury trips he takes every year with the tokens he sold. Tweeting from his villa on a remote island.
@samecwilliams this is tasteless. you've already fucked ario enough why do stuff like this to prove you're a fuckin nerd who can do nerd shit? While completely stepping on the toes of your most loyal partners?
@moneyhippie@CryptosHaven@nirajhodler@onlyarweave@SanDisk Some context: Everyone left. Not just the team. Redstone completely left Arweave, ario abandoned AO and migrating to Solana. CTO, CoS, and more were fired, now only single digit people still at forward research.
Arweave current TPS: 3 to 4.57
Transactions dropped ~99.23%.

@samecwilliams Sam, have u considered there might be reasons people don’t trust you or believe in what you’re doing? I know it’s hard to admit, but the actions you’ve done behind the scenes are terrible. Perhaps just be a decent person and stop being so abusive toward others. People are people.
@jasondesante@samecwilliams He seems to cultivate a “technical/nerdy” persona so that if outcomes aren’t great, he can deflect criticism by suggesting others simply don’t understand the complexity of what he’s doing, and position himself as someone pursuing a bigger vision.
@wouter_burrea@samecwilliams Why not ask everyone he's worked with and all the people he invited to his penthouse. We all know he did, dude. Or maybe just ask Josh.
@aoTheComputer Coinbase delisted the Arweave perpetual futures contract on Feb 20, 2026. Binance delisted Arweave margin/perpetual trading pairs in late Jan 2026. Bitrue, Cointree, Gate/TR delisted arweave as well.
