Ex-Manager’s Livestream Blunder: Nudes and Apologies Galore! 😂

by

In a turn of events that could only be described as a delightful cocktail of calamity and comedy, a former employee of the illustrious layer-1 blockchain platform, Near Protocol, found himself in a rather compromising position. During a public call, the chap inadvertently showcased some rather risqué images while sharing his screen, all while the native token NEAR was enjoying a rather splendid price bump. Talk about timing! 🎉

Our protagonist, the ex-business development manager, one Andrew Krynin, was engaged in a livestream with the esteemed Near core contributor, Cameron Dennis, when—lo and behold!—two rather saucy images popped up on the screen, giving the audience an unexpected peek into the files residing on his laptop. One can only imagine the collective gasp that echoed through the digital ether.

“The only thing that I wanted to say next was, uh… God damn it,” Krynin exclaimed, as silence enveloped the virtual room like a thick fog. After a brief interlude of two seconds that felt like an eternity, his screensharing came to a screeching halt. Bravo, Andrew! 👏

Near Protocol Responds to Livestream Mishap

As clips of this unexpected spectacle zipped around the internet faster than a cat meme, Near Protocol decided to step in with some sage advice: “Top tip: use one laptop for personal stuff, another device for crypto and work. Secure your private keys and also other things.” Wise words indeed! And just to add a cherry on top, they concluded with a cheeky “and never goon.” One can only wonder what that means in the grand scheme of things! 😏

Hours later, in a more formal tone, Near issued an apology, taking “full responsibility” for the incident. The video, of course, has been swiftly removed from their platform, much like a bad haircut after a night of revelry.

In a rather curious twist, Krynin took to social media to address the debacle with two posts that could not have been more different in tone. The first was a rather bold request for donations, sharing his wallet address with the world:

“For all ppl who made memcoins – share! Cuz I need some big-ass Valentine’s Day peace offering now and you guys aren’t making it easier…” Ah, the spirit of romance! 💘

Ten hours later, in a moment of clarity, Krynin posted an apology to “the ONLY person” he had wronged—his girlfriend. Yet, in a stroke of genius, he assured “all the women” that if a man has naked photos on his laptop, it “doesn’t mean he is disrespectful, it means he really likes you.” A true gentleman, indeed! 😂

Onlookers, with their usual flair for humor, took the incident in stride, with some cheekily suggesting that the real scandal lay in the other downloaded files on Krynin’s laptop. “This is such a bad look for Near,” one user quipped. “Why would anyone watch House of Dragons?” A fair point, I must say!

In a rather ironic twist of fate, Near Protocol’s (NEAR) token has been on a steady rise since the incident, up nearly 6% at the time of writing. Who knew that a little bit of scandal could be so profitable? 🍾
