When it comes to money if you don’t have something tangible
that another human can touch, it is not real.
I have a degree in computer science.
I get my pension and social security via
computer every payday.

But I know that can be destroyed by any number
of occurrences.

My backup is stuff I can touch and bargain with.
be it paper money, bullets, guns, cattle, tools
or what ever.
These things don’t get obliterated by a hacker, or electrical failure.
Y’all keep that in mind when you plan for disasters.

An inside job? I can see the owner of one of these crypto joints, telling a hacker how to steal $200 million dollars. Then splitting the proceeds.

What, has to be fake news.
We have been assured over and over again that “Blockchain” and Crypto are impossible to hack.
Ususally on the same day as another breathless announcement on the wonders of AI, and Quantum computing.

>> “We can cover the loss,” he said.

Translation: “We have pocketed the loss. Sayonara fools!”

It looks to me that “money in the bank” is lot safer than crypto.
So many crypto hackers, they beat all the bank heists in history!

“Inside job?” is always a fair question.

Charles Ponzi said the same thing.
