I personally don't think so anymore. Capital is flowing into Bitcoin, and the major players driving its price don’t seem interested in the altcoin "casino." Back in 2021, you had people like SBF shorting BTC and pumping alts, all while everyone was stuck at home during COVID. This cycle feels completely different — there doesn’t seem to be much appetite for altcoins at all.
Most of the CEOs like him,SBF are remorse-less liars,
Yup, agree with you there. The $5k limit to transfer off is annoying as hell though. I started moving off RH after they finally implemented their wallet to wallet transfers, got a bit lazy, and then SBF hit. I was in Mexico trying to move 3btc off RH. Took me 3 weeks lol.
I mean look at some of these crypto billionaires Do Kwon, SBF, CZ etc. do any of these people look like they could put up a fight?
There is no shocks until there is. If there is paper sold to these big buyers then there will be point where they see that more is being sold than exists and it's game of who pulls their coins before it's too late. There will be big dip again like SBF times but then it will be corrected and some extra when we are closer to the real value in supply.
It will freeze and it will need SBF to unfreeze them
I still think $100k would have been possible if SBF wasn't selling off everyone's coin behind their backs.
Rian Salame explicitly said none of his donations were on behalf of FTX, it was entirely his own money. And SBF lies about everything.
Wowwwww €80?! Lol Arbitrage pricing across exchanges is a thing, that’s how SBF got started. But you need capital at both ends, to consider the fees and a few other factors. Long term you won’t be profitable
Damn, SBF had a ton of girlfriends
he will get out in a shorter time than you expect. His kind protect themselves and each other and he "technically" to their laws didn't cheat nor deceive anyone. him a SBF are going to get out so fast.
Clearly,if you spend more time in blockchain/web3 as a developer, maybe your standards will change instead of following some man-made kid dream that forks endless shitcoins. When you realize that eth can be rug-pulled by VB, whereas btc is a virus email that has value everywhere in the world with everyone and everything, you become infinite, especially when there's a limited supply. Honestly, VB isn’t Satoshi, so maybe compare everything like eth, polygon, ada, xrp, hex, xlm, xdc, tether, litecoin, so many other shitcoins made by people like Tron, SBF, Do Kwon. Nobody cares about stacking their baskets with eth etf eggs just the uneducated exit liquidity that likes shitcoins like doge. A bunch of Russian brics nations shit memes forked by some meth-head dev named VB who can rug you at any point with overwhelming gwei. Btc is so much more. You clearly asked a question below what I see. The minute you stated btc maxi, I could tell you have no idea what you are talking about. How many times has eth stalled out crashed? Vs btc ahhh 😌 4 huge difference ethereum pipe dreams, honestly xrp is better they all have a purpose especially with layers stacked on layers but nothing compares to bitcoins scarcity halvings use cases volatility adoption community development regulatory environment . These day traders Moniker is CM
I cannot wait to see him get thrown into prison for a long time. If SBF can get 25 years, Karony the Klown boy should get at least 15.
Did they find anyone for SBF's GF role yet ? I'd like to make suggestions.
SBF : Leonardo Dicaprio Caroline Ellison : Margot Robbie
I'm shocked Trump hasn't pardoned SBF yet, and thrown him $50 million to startup a new company.
And they had a massive investment in Anthropic and Robinhood. If Binance hadn't shoped them, SBF would probably be one of the richest peeps in the world right now.
Scam Altman is truly an evil alt of SBF
Is the founder anything like SBF?
I’ve been out 4 years, awesome! Let me check my FTX account. I was good friends with SBF, hope he’s doing well!
Its a piece of shit chain lol, full of flaws and cant handle any load. Its used for scams, and pumped and supported by the scammer of scammers SBF. So i hope it dies a slow death, rip bagholders.
You created a website with three static web pages and a bunch of promises. Woo hoo. Your tagline is "Invest Without Fee's". I'll bet you don't even know why that's wrong. Below your tagline is "Making FIAT Exchange Easier and Reliable". I'll bet you don't even know why that's wrong. Your copyright statement is "©Copyright. All rights reserved." I'll bet you don't even know why that's wrong. You're promising to charge pennies while operating a platform that will cost tens of thousands of dollars per month to operate. You have no business model, no business plan, and no liquidity. You're less prepared for this than SBF was, and we all know how that turned out. Be honest: you're just hoping to get the contact information for a bunch of naïve, wannabe traders so you can pitch them a pump and dump scam. Am I right?
Because people are stupid. You had people simping for Tiffany Fong and she wanted a very lenient sentence for SBF cause "he didn't kill people so why should he get 25 years" & "my boyfriend wasted my time so does that mean he should be in prison too for 25 years?". These are the dumbshits that vote with this type of logic. The rest of the FTX crew got out with no problems, didn't have to pay the victims back,etc. Hell, most of them would have got real time if they had only stolen from 1 person. In the USA we usually give lenient sentences if you rob a lot of people. And also if you're rich .
Lock him up alongside SBF, Do Kwon and all the other crypto scamming cunts.
I went hard into BTC after the FTX fraud. Realized the SBF was the poster boy for the vices of shit coins and the virtues of self custody and the crash in Bitcoin had nothing to do with fundamentals. My average cost is 24k so I have pretty much 4'xed. Still hodling.
Only for a while, if they sell, then we'll be BETTER OFF not WORSE because those Bitcoin will no longer be essentially held hostage. Seriously, people talk about it as if it's better for them to be hanging out there. It's like saying it's better for Bitcoin if SBF wasn't caught. Yeah, the price would be higher today, if he was still out there, but Bitcoin is healthier today with him gone than before. The Bitcoin network woukd be healthier AFTER Satoshi sells, thus spreading his coins around. If you are worried about Satoshi, now is the time to worry sbout him, not after he sells and leaves People selling if Satoshi sells would literally be selling the biggest buying opportunity of ALL TIME. Bitcoin wouldn't have changed and now those coins would no longer be a threat.
I bought solana when SBF crushed it. About 150k worth; my life savings. I peaked at 6M before the tariff war. That really fucked me… as well as everyone else i know. But i didn’t sell; hung on. Went down below 2M and now its rebounding. But i still work; i have been promoted several times since. Wonder if its a confidence thing or i literally had more time to pursue things i otherwise wouldn’t. Other than that; i have a lucid for my commuter car. But i stay fairly grounded considering.
That was easier for me to buy then when it was sub 20k last bear. All of the macros were favorable. People were just in a pure panic. Back in 22, with SBF, Do Kwon deploying capital, and Elizabeth Warren I was more scared.
Getting out of Blockfi 6-9mo before the whole bankruptcy thing. Honestly, there were warning signs the whole way down. I have one friend who lost a few thousand in it, but he was also not paying any attention. The episode where SBF and Alameda swooped in to provide liquidity to Blockfi acutely should have been, not the canary in the coal mine, but the final call to anyone who was following the news in any shape form or fashion.
SBF gave the same advice to prison guards apparently lol
Typical BBC…telling normies that crypto is evil and not to even think of it. Why does every article got SBF in it? All until tradfi has their products ready to milk the normies with meagre 1-2% returns.
Yeah but SBF has already made his right wing pivot when he got interviewed by Tucker the other month
When you're getting transported in the feds Victorville has a holdover facility. SBF was never designated to Victorville, he was just waiting for a bus to Terminal Island. I spent a month at Victorville holdover in between MDC LA and Lompoc.
Tbf, he would have done so already if he wanted to. Also SBF was probably closer to dems than Trump.
I don't really want to defend SBF because he is a thief who ruined the lives of a lot of small investor and deserves to be BUT Elizabeth Holmes committed considerably worse crimes than SBF and got sentenced to only 10 years in a minimum security prison while SBF is doing 25 in max security. Then again, don't want to defend him but it doesn't look proportional.
SBF getting pumped and dumped all around the national prison system like a rag doll
Do NOT chase this. I had .25 BTC and I lost it when BlockFi cratered because of SBF shenanigans. I didn’t even know that was the exposure. That was in 2022.
Yes, and there's even a version of FTX - gambling the customers' deposits - which won't attract a fraud conviction One half of this is to not have investors if they're not needed. SBF didn't need investors' money. He agreed to bring investors in because of the credibility they added. Unfortunately, 3 of the 7 fraud counts were for defrauding investors
lol, SBF managed to get money from those VCs while he was playing video games instead of answering their questions. It's not like their vetting process is that sophisticated.
SBF's girlfriend's (Caroline Ellis) dad was Gary Gensler's colleague at MIT. They were both econ professors. That's why Gary Gensler gave SBF a pass.
I’ll take it one step further: Every single crypto investor should be very concerned that there no longer exists a popular supporter of crypto that isn’t an asshole. The entire space has become exactly what so many [wrongly, at the time] said it always was: pump and dumps and schemes perpetrated by scumbags at best (Jake Paul, etc) and criminals at worst (SBF, etc). I honestly fear that the entire space has been irreparably tarnished…
Yes, sure, reminds me of the reassuring posts of Do Kwon and SBF.
I think it actually does. The hash rate hit all time highs when it crashed to $15k after SBF, that showed me that bitcoin wasn't dead and it would be back in a few years with a vengeance. Imo the hash rate indicates a few things; increased investment infrastructure for mining, more security and overall greater interest in longevity of bitcoin. The price is a bad indicator I find because it mostly moves short term from hype.
I guess SBF was a few years early running his scams.
I'm very surprised he hasn't been pardoned yet since Trump is running the country a lot like how SBF ran his business. For sure thought he'd have a government job by now
i agree that american prisons are disgraceful but i am perfectly ok with someone like SBF, whose psychopathic narcissism and greed ruined lives all so he could have orgies with goblins and jerk off politicians, suffering violent abuse in prison.
He’s morphing into a certified badass. Don’t drop the soap or SBF might pound that stink hole.
I hope SBF gets passed around as the prison btch he fully deserves to be.
Bruh I thought it was an AI generated photo of SBF
Do you know any billionaires (who aren't idiots like SBF) in prison?
tbf, I did not say that SBF was a smart man... Just that "speaking to the SEC" is not evidence that they were planning something illegal.
If you lose your seed phrase then your BTC is gone, too. Looking at the past, I seem to see way more Bitcoins lost through carelessness in direct ownership than through government expropriation or collapse of a proper, US regulated ETF. In fact, I think the sum total of the last two is exactly 0 at the time of writing (think Blackrock, not SBF or Mickey Mouse exchanges).
Sure he had SBF come out right after this. Future of the crypto world.
It's wild that even the crypto "experts" thought Trump saying pro crypto things and shilling his own memecoin meant he would be good for crypto. That's like saying SBF must be good for crypto because he ran a fraudulent crypto exchange.
correct :) though you missed the second ref [https://x.com/SBF\_FTX/status/1591989554881658880?lang=en](https://x.com/SBF_FTX/status/1591989554881658880?lang=en)
Trevor Milton scammed investors. He's now a celebrated, pardoned MAGA loyalist. Trump literally minted shitcoins to scam his supporters. Celebrated. Any attempt at regulating scams and rugpulls is labeled "fascism" or whatever. Now we just have to wait for the SBF pardon. Tucker Carlson already laid the groundwork to promote him as the victim of liberal persecution.
Who‘s next? SBF aka Scam Bankrun-Fraud?
He's gonna eat a lot more bananas in the joint with SBF
I hear SBF will be boxing against Elon Musk if his mom approves.
Does this mean that the SBF-Vitalik boxing match is back on?
Actual banks 🤣 coinbase an actual bank? Or you mean the actual banks that caused all other financial crisis in the history of the world? There will always be people who push the envelope, or like subprime mortgages the whole industry pushing the envelope. What happened there? Why didn't the interest cover their losses? SBF's downfall was not that he lent too much, its was that the hedge funds he lent to stopped paying back their loans. Most of this was due to those hedge funds losing their ass on the GBTC arbitrage as the market started to turn.
SBF gave money to Biden and still got prosecuted, Justin Sun gave money to Trump and the case against him got dropped. Republicans like Tucker Carlson are at a point where they believe that not giving kickbacks and protection for political donations is the real crime. [Sam Bankman-Fried on Life in Prison With Diddy, and How Democrats Stole His Money and Betrayed Him](https://youtu.be/dN1CR2dyfo8?si=nS-FRhzFlbL1GdxH)
100% SBF is going to end up looking like the devito as the penguin in 8 years
SBF donated just as much to Republicans just not publicly.
the ONLY reason he won't is because SBF donated to democrat superpack so he chose the wrong team. If he has donated to him he would be free & rich by now.
I am still laughing about the fact that people trust Tether, Binance and Coinbase more with "really backing stable coins with real USD" than they trust the FED... I'm sure the opinion totally wasn't created by propaganda from these for profit corporations and is just what everyone knows to be true... That governments that you can vote out are not to be trusted, while for profit corporations that by definition only want to make as much profit as possible, would never sell you out. But sure... You exchanging your CBDC-Stablecoin for free independent crypto gives the government the ability to track you, while you trading on a CEX where you don't even own crypto is you being a responsible crypto owner... Keep telling yourself that. So many here seem to want to cuddle with SBF... it's hilarious.
SBF still breaking rules even after being sent to prison.
I wonder whether this corrupt administration would have prosecuted SBF had FTX blown up now. My guess is that a political donation to the fascist in chief might get him off the hook.
tldr; FTX co-founder Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF) has been transferred from Brooklyn's Metropolitan Detention Center to FTC Oklahoma City via 'Con Air' after an unauthorized jailhouse interview. SBF, convicted of defrauding FTX users, is serving a 25-year sentence and is expected to be moved to a minimal-security facility, possibly in California. His trial revealed a scheme involving billions in misused customer funds. SBF maintains his innocence and is appealing his conviction while his parents seek a presidential pardon. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article. As always, DYOR.
More than likely they gave each other colonoscopies. Remember SBF used to have freak-offs too... now he learned from the master.
Once Sun is in, SBF and Sun could hold a crypto summit.
They’re guards not millionaires. How much $$$$$ would you it take for you to “smuggle” a phone in for SBF.
Where were the same people under Gensler? He regularly met SBF.
For the longest time, Do Kwon, SBF, and 3AC seemed like they knew what they were doing too.
What if it’s someone like SBF playing with other people’s money?
Anyone else getting weird SBF energy from Saylor? The Sword of Damocles type of deal where he's gonna cause the next bear market.
Michael Saylor will be the Do Kwon / SBF of this cycle.
To be completely honest, it's just a travesty that SBF got more jail time than Elizabeth Holmes.
SBF has to play his cards right. He has to immediately thank Vance, tell Trump he found Jesus and converted to Christianity in prison. And the second he leaves jail he's swearing an oath to defend the Constitution from Rosie O'Donnell as a member of the United States Marine Corps. That's how you get a pardon.
my first bag was solana at 8 dollars during the SBF scandal.
The SEC accused them of using more customer funds than SBF did to do their own trading too.
Well yeah, but SBF isn't just some "poor peasant". Yeah, he lost most of his wealth but he was still part of the elite and he went to the prison for defrauding investors - which is still mostly "rich people" crime Donald pardoning him send signals that these kinds of crimes and scams will be tolerated under his watch - just do it, get sended to jail and then get pardoned by him.
I hear SBF is going to be their HR and ethics manager.
The Trump voters will tell us how SBF was a victim of a democrat conspiracy, how he’s a hero and how the pardon was 100% deserved.
This entire administration has been screaming about a mandate to eliminate waste, fraud, and abuse form Government, all while being perhaps the biggest practitioners of government corruption, abuse of power, and conflict of interest we’ve ever seen in this country. They can tell you one thing and get away with doing literally the exact opposite thing, because they know a large part of the country doesn’t know their mouth from their ass enough to stop it. This guy is gonna pardon CZ, SBF, every other crypto scammer willing to line his pockets, and rug pull as much money as he can before the whole house comes crashing down and the sad part is, there will still be people wondering “how did this happen?”
If SBF doesn't have money, he is not getting pardoned by Trump and this sub is not loosing its mind.
Two Felons working together, might as well gets SBF and Do Kwon out and assemble the Avengers of Pump and Dump.
Does SBF have money to bribe ?
Can't remember the specifics but it was admin or regulatory failure for Binance US.. like they failed to implement KYC or other AML measures or something. It wasn't anywhere near the level of SBF
Why would anybody suggest that Trump would pardon SBF? SBF was the No. 2 largest donor to the Democrats in 2022.
$DIDDY, $EPSTEIN, & a big bag of *checks notes-* [HarryPotterSonicInu10 (BITCOIN).](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/harrypotterobamasonic10inu/) I’m also long on the FTX token now that SBF is out and I’m shorting the U.S. dollar. Am I gonna make it?
True but FTX was everywhere remember Tom Brady was even hyping it up with SBF! Like the GOAT of NFL really? The stadium in Miami, all the love they were getting from Biden vice versa, I think SBF was the biggest donor to Biden or something like that right? The Larry David Super Bowl commercial was the best crypto commercial of all time still! But yes thats a lot to not be even nudged a bit lol.
I'd like to see that happen and then SBF start some new crypto project where he gambles away people's money again. The part I'm interested in is watching him trying to rationalize it all.
