It's an asymmetric win-win situation for him, provided you have a couple hundred million dollars of legal fees it's going to consume here, right?

Because we are litigating over $100 billion.

And then the other thing that happens is, and he's lived through this on the Twitter litigation.

Deposition and discovery is a sucky process because you write down stuff in your email, in your diary, and then it suddenly comes out and it's always embarrassing, right?

The truth is that if I spewed out your last 10 years of emails, I'd find some embarrassing stuff.

It happened to Elon in the Twitter litigation.

I mean, some of those texts just look juvenile.

You just, oh, wow, you're the richest man in the world.

You sound like an idiot.

That sucks.

In this case,

They were able to, I mean, if you look at already what they've got on the record, they've got poor Greg Brockman, who kept the diary to 2017, you know, writes in his diary, as one does, what does it take for me to get to a billion dollars?

And now that's come out, and now they're doing some version of, hey, you were cheating me all along.

You wanted to do a for-profit.

I mean, can you imagine, Harry, having to get your diary from eight years ago?

And then you had Ilya who had to do a 10-hour depo.

And this comes back to the whole Murrah thing, right?

He had to do a 10-hour depo on the 2022 CEO, it was 23, CEO drama, which is not really relevant to this because the quote-unquote alleged fraud happened in 2017 or 18.

But again, it's just a fun chance to get all the mess out there.

So they depoed Ilya for 10 hours and we finally got to hear what he thought about the great fiasco.
