LA Renters Discover Their Landlord is a 19-Year-Old Crypto Influencer in Finland
Tenant complaints answered with NFT memes and vague motivational quotes.
LOS ANGELES — A group of LA tenants were shocked to discover their landlord is not a local real estate firm, but a 19-year-old crypto influencer named “Chaz Etherealm” broadcasting from a ski lodge in Lapland, Finland.
Chaz acquired the building during a GameStop short squeeze and has managed it entirely through Discord and meme-based governance. Rent is paid in Ethereum or “exposure bucks,” whichever has higher vibes that day.
When a tenant reported black mold, Chaz replied with a GIF of SpongeBob doing yoga and the message: “That’s just your third eye detoxing.”
What the Funny People Are Saying:
- “I tried to complain, and he offered me a limited edition landlord NFT. It’s a stick figure holding eviction papers.” — Ron White
- “He said he’d fix the plumbing with ‘blockchain integrity.’ I said, ‘It’s leaking, not leaking crypto.’” — Jerry Seinfeld
- “My bathtub has no faucet, but my rent comes with a free AI-generated vision board.” — Amy Schumer
Chaz’s management style involves livestreaming tenant meetings while gaming, and resolving disputes by spinning a digital Wheel of Dharma coded by a Swedish anarchist named Lörk.
