Hoping no one here on this fine forum got/gets hurt with crypto.

It seems a bit like a pyramid scheme to me.

Fake currency is a scam and you’ve been ripped off.

Who could have seen this coming? 🙄

Looks like that crypto-billionaire that was going to steal the 2024 presidential election might have to re-think his plans!

Recently, there was a cover story article about Sam Bankman-Fried in one of the top business magazines, excitedly praising him as the "Warren Buffett of Cryptocurrency." That implied Bankman-Fried would one day create a Berkshire Hathaway-like $2/3 Trillion empire just like Buffett.

So that cover-story article alone probably tempted lots of naive speculators and traders to pour their money into Bankman-Fried's FTX cryptocurrency exchange, thinking they'll all make huge cryptocurrency fortunes just like many Berkshire Hathaway investors made fortunes.

Reports now say that FTX customer assets of up to $2 Billion have totally "disappeared" and "vanished" into thin air. Nobody knows where they went. So if you wanted to buy in on the Sam Bankman-Fried FTX cryptocurrency gravy train, sorry, you're too late!

The modern finance business model is to create an commodity, the build layers upon layers of derivative commodities from it, ie a Ponzi Scheme.

I’m not a goldbug - it’s not something I invest in but I have never had a gold or silver coin evaporate. The land I own hasn’t evaporated either.

Well, if you bought $1000 in FTT a year ago, you’d still have over $50 left on paper, but it would be frozen and you couldn’t actually get your $50+ back.

This is all the justification government needs to shut-down or heavily regulate all crypto currency - and also to justify launch of a central-bank digital currency.

Expect someone like Chuck Schumer or Liz Warren to lead the charge.

Their website is still up with no message about this. Looks like business as usual.
