UBI gives people the ability to follow their dreams without risk of homelessness and starvation. Some of those dreams will be blockchain-enabled blah blah, some will be writing novels, or starting bands, or making community gardens, or teaching, or whatever.

Perhaps there are VCs who advocate UBI only because they think they can make money on the small subset of people whose dream is to start a venture-funded company and take it public. But UBI helps people follow whatever dream they have, so you'd have to hate VCs an awful lot to oppose UBI for that reason.
