Sheela Microsoft (Jim Zemlin's Wife) Downplayed 'Volatility' Just Weeks Before the Cryptocurrencies Pyramid Schemes Collapsed (That's Her Business at Bakkt!)

Summary: The money-obsessed Sheela Microsoft gave a public panel talk earlier this summer, apparently in April 26-28, i.e. around the time of the cryptocalypse that happened just weeks later --- the time the pyramid schemes were collapsing (many empty seats in her talk by the way; only 21 views in YouTube after 3 months; maybe clickfraud Spamnil can help fake/game these numbers with the botfarms as his videos have 90-95% fake 'views'); few people are aware of Jim's Microsoft-connected wife (a glaring conflict of interest for the Linux Foundation), who is promoting financial scams based on misinformation/disinformation, just like her husband
