India has been encouraging global tech talents to visit and invest in its growing blockchain and artificial intelligence sectors. The B-1 visa Tony received is a business visa often given to visitors attending conferences, business meetings, or tech events.

His post gained attention especially among Indian and desi social media users, who found the contrast both amusing and interesting.

One user commented on the viral X post, saying, "Being honest, studying and working with brilliant Indians at top US universities, I truly believe India has some of the most intelligent minds in tech, AI, and engineering. If that talent is directed toward building and innovating within India, the scale of progress could be incredible. I'm confident that in the next 10 years, at least one or two Indian companies will rank among global giants."

Another user added, "This is a temporary non-immigrant visa for short-term business activities."

A third user warmly welcomed the individual, writing, "Looking at an Indian visa for the first time. Welcome! You've got 1.45 billion chances to make friends here."
