"Today Ilya Lichtenstein is the co-founder of the Y Combinator backed Mix Rank,"

One of the first Google results for the names returns 'Get your first $1 million in enterprise sales with zero marketing spend' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DuIr5IFQ9Xg

Heather R Morgan

Serial entrepreneur SaaS Investor Razzlekhan = Surrealist Artist, Rapper & Fashion Designer with synesthesia Also Forbes writer

https://www.inc.com/heather-r-morgan/dont-hire-a-salesperson...

"As I build a sales team for my latest software startup, Endpass"

Endpass "Bringing you the delightful and secure Ethereum wallet that's easy enough for grandma to use."

Wait, so did Feds nab them for running Ethereum wallet startup and claim $3B in client wallets as theirs? Or did the pair start Ethereum wallet company to wash stolen coints?

Did Mix Rank take bitcon?

Were they married at the time of this interview?

I met Heather many years ago. It's a weird feeling to see a name you recognize in an announcement like this. We've lost touch long since so I have no comment.

But felt it was important enough to state that you know her? I'm not sure what your comment is supposed to be.

jeez man, not every comment has to be a profound statement. I thought it was pretty interesting.

It's good to add some value with your comment though. You can talk about how she was as a person or some other interesting anecdote

There was value, the person expressed it’s a strange feeling seeing a name you recognise in an article like this. Other people may find that enough to relate to.

Just curious, what did you think was pretty interesting about it? The fact that one human knew another? The fact that someone on HN knew this person?

Not trying to troll, is there something here I'm missing?

lol, man, just let the guy talk. We're just here hanging out. He probably thought it was neat that he knew someone who was attached to something this crazy. This is how a lot of humans operate.

Am I talking to a bot?

No they nabbed them for using stolen funds to create startups in the first place. They had no products (https://web.archive.org/web/20220113181658/https://endpass.c...)

She presents herself here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mWq7JgRknTM , I suppose you know what kind of person she is right ? The kind that use pipes as in "Economist | MBA | Serial Entrepreneur | Rapper "in their linkedin profiles but do nothing at all once hired :)

She was more truthful 7 years ago: https://youtu.be/NQAA2LlabUg?t=84 where she listed her main skill as copy writing.

To be fair though, you could have your cat just randomly jump all over your keyboard and Kitty would get herself published in Forbes. They're not known for their high bar.
