Celebrities and influencers, including Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak, endorsed Reece Lewis as a strong leader for the HyperVerse. ... Wozniak said in a video that he supported "Steven," proclaiming, "I can’t wait for the HyperVerse.”

In 2022, a writer for the British tabloid called The Mirror, Andrew Penman, attempted to raise a red flag, noting that all three of the celebrities (Wozniak, Chuck Norris, and Lance Bass) who endorsed Reece Lewis declined to confirm ever knowing him.

Oh Woz. How the mighty have fallen. Whatever they paid you, it wasn't enough. Also you're filthy rich already FFS.
