Alameda wallets funnel over $1.7M via crypto mixers overnight [just days after SBF gets out of jail for free, MORE assets are stolen from alameda & disappear down the rabbit hole!]
cointelegraph ^ | 12/29/22

Data negates the possibility of liquidators behind the fund transfers due to the use of mixing tools and extensive planning to hide transaction paths.

30 cryptocurrency wallets linked to Alameda Research, the bankrupt sister company of crypto exchange FTX, became active on Dec. 28 following four weeks of inactivity. These wallets swapped and mixed over $1.7 million worth of crypto assets through various crypto-mixing services.

As Cointelegraph reported on Dec. 28, the sudden movement of funds from Alameda wallets just days after Sam Bankman Fried was released on bail raised suspicions across the crypto community. Nearly 24 hours later, it seems the culprit behind these fund transfers used extensive planning to hide transaction routes.

apparently someone intimately familiar with ftx/alameda accessed backdoors undetected by the bankruptcy administrators and stole a bunch of assets just a few days after SBF drew a "Get Out Of Jail Free Card" from "The Game Of Crypto: Ponzi Schemes for Greater Fools" ...

One of the most convoluted and incoherent headlines and story ever.

Is a crypto mixer a cocktail party for cemetery workers?

No, the whole apparatus, was built for money-laundering (top to bottom). I would imagine Russian Oligarch guys used it....Chinese fentanyl gangs used it, and so on. This is why you don’t see anyone really hyped up and demanding justice much.

You might also find various PACs (Republican and Democrat) that had money from beyond the US border brought in, and they definitely don’t want a real investigation into this.

I seem to recall a lot of people insisting that cryptocurrency wallets were totally secure. NOTHING online is totally secure.

This guy and his hobbit girlfriend are going to get slaps on the wrist, serve very little time at a prison with tennis courts, declare themselves penniless, and yet somehow go on to live lifestyles that only the richest among us could afford.

And our government wants to bring this whole concept to your banking accounts. And they claim it is so secure and we promise not to mess with your money! Yeah right. This SBF crypto scam proves that crytocurrency is NOT a safe option, especially from the government.
