I think part of the “bitcoin IQ test” is eventually understanding that the need for advertisements is fundamentally driven by the scammy nature of these other projects and the need to exit quickly. Organic adoption doesn’t need mass advertisements and IMO they could actually hurt bitcoin by making it seem more like the other projects that are just hunting for quick exit liquidity. Bitcoin is the long game and it’s advertisement needs to be through actual use for it to be fair and successful. These companies should act like what they are - for-profit companies. Running ads for themselves but explaining that they are built on bitcoin tech is probably better than trying to shill people to buy bitcoin outright.
