e/acc leader plans to turn random X-money windfall into an 'e/acc RAND Corp'
mjdramstead · x · 2026-09-26
X users report being "financially DDOS'd" — receiving tens of thousands of dollars in unsolicited X money transfers. @beffjezos (e/acc figurehead, Extropic founder) says he'll use this "random windfall" to build a legitimate "e/acc RAND Corp," with a mission to scale e/acc and Extropic. The incident doubles as a glimpse of X's payment feature being abused for harassment.
