I wonder too. In a game of “Spot the Patsy” between Sam and Caroline, I’d go with Caroline being the patsy, and Sam the mastermind. Between Sam and almost anyone else, I’d pick Sam as being the patsy.

Sam looks just sharp enough to know there was a patsy, and think it wasn’t him. Caroline looks like she thinks Patsy is a girl she knew in junior high.

Last time I checked, Receiving Stolen Property was still a FELONY in every jurisdiction, Absolutely NOTHING prevents a State AG or County DA from criminally Charging and prosecuting any person in their jurisdiction that received these STOLEN FUNDS

This has always been the biggest threat to crypto

Yes, biggest threat. AND the collapse of this Ponzi Scheme gives Biden and his goons an excuse to 'nationalize' the idea giving THEM control and regulation.

AND as icing on the cake, the scam ALSO BENEFITED DEMOCRATS BY FILLING THEIR COFFERS will billions of donations at the expense of scammed private citizens. What's next? Biden working with Nigerian 'prince's' to shake down the gullible or elderly? Or maybe for the big bucks to work with cartels and China in exchange for a cut?

Like epstein’s list, the names of creditors won’t be released:

“Fast forward to Saturday when in a surprise twist, the Enron liquidator is now asking the judge to keep the names of the company’s creditors and customers (which we assume have been identified), confidential in order to “protect the estate or any entity in respect of a trade secret or other confidential research, development or commercial information.”

Most people should just say no to crypto for now. Too much counterparty risk.

From the Kunstler blog:

Mr. Bankman-Fried is still scheduled as a main speaker for Accenture’s Nov. 30 DealBook Conference in New York ($2,499 for a ticket), along with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen. Odds on him showing up? Or even being alive elsewhere on this planet then?

Accenture sure does show up a lot on the backdoor deals ... And to correct the blog, The New York Times Company is the host.

DealBook

And SBF is still listed (as of Sunday Nov 20) as a speaker.

One doesn’t have to believe it’s religious in nature, just sociopaths wanting to control the entire globe.

These people are worse than Bond villains.

I think Sam is above Caroline in the awareness, but both are patsies of MUCH higher minds.

This was well thought out, and Sam was just the paid actor “Zelensky” in the scheme of things. Smart enough to pass himself off as the financial wizard iconoclast, NOT smart enough to conceive of it all.

This operation existed on several levels for different time durations.

1. The insiders funneled money out, via cutouts, to their own pockets.

2. The “Zelensky” regime got to launder money, sending a % back to the originators (aka “skimming). Some of this Ukraine money actually bought a bullet. Most went into the Ukro elite bosses, much back to the USA as kickbacks. Some of this went into political hands, (congressional no-oversight, SEC looks other way)

3. Top level / long term: The entire fiasco, having run its course and been burned, (but the stolen money is still stolen!), will be used to discredit crypto generally as unsecure. “This is why we need laws to outlaw people having secret crypto wallets with no oversight.”

If they can’t control crypto, it will be outlawed. Stings will be set up to make examples out of “unregistered crypto outlaws.” Ten years in prison will make crypto unpopular. Folks will get out instead of comply with registration/regulation.

4. Finally, and the ultimate goal, the whole thing will be used to help usher in a national CBDC. It will be sold just like Trump Russia Collusion, the Covid Pandemic and mass vaccination, Ukraine, you name it.

“All good Americans support one safe and secure digital currency!”

Just hold your hand over the chip reader, and you are good to go.
