In related news: yesterday, Block announced it was firing half its engineers to make a "big bet on AI."

Block used to be called "Square" and it had a very successful business as a payment processor. It changed its name to Block when it went all in on crypto.

Block's mass "AI" layoffs coincide with a *50%* drop in Bitcoin, with concomitant collapses in other cryptos. AI market watchers warn that the industry is so overleveraged that this could lead to total collapse.
