The year is almost up, and the world's most exciting currency is only worth roughly 36% of what it was on January 1st. Whaddaya mean BTC isn't a viable investment? FUD! FUD!!!

Rememeber the social network where zuck went into a meeting with a robe? Now being slovenly is now apparently a positive signal IMO, I'll forever be on team "if you're a billionaire, you might as well dress nicely and have a decent hair cut," but some goons had a problem with me saying that last time. Even if it's just jeans and a t-shirt, there are plenty of companies that have cuts and styles that will better suit different body types, and most of them are affordable even to the average joe. They don't even need to get anything handmade in Italy. However, these goony grifters always look like everything they wear is straight off the rack from Grocery Outlet.

PITY BONER posted:For us plebes, how we dress at work, interviews, meetings, dates, events, etc., can make or break our success. For billionaires, I guess it's proven to investors that the money is there and that's what matters most, so nobody gives a poo poo how the person dresses. In a society that keeps believing the horseshit that billionaires are just boot-strapping their way to the top and have proven themselves, their value is tied to their money rather than how the present themselves, act, dress, are as people, and so on. Elon is a good example of a total idiot who gets a pass every time because of being a billionaire. They're trying to countersignal.

Silly Newbie posted:Literally though you can't actually just sit in jail until that poo poo gets figured out, legally speaking, and letting it happen to absolutely ANYONE is a bad precedent to set. Our legal system is entirely built on precedents, so "we knew this one dude was guilty as hell so we put him in gitmo until we had a sufficient body of evidence to prove it" starts with using it on SBF and ends with using it on some person who made a big use of investor funds right before Bernie Madoff got caught because they're an idiot. Or a person who walked past a crack house one time.

About laws and bankman. I had a cousin who was on a board for a charity. One day she s on the phone with a chase customer representative reviewing her accounts and they decide she has too many account and merges a few. Turns out the chase dude didnt understand that one of those account belonged the charity so turns out she just closed it out and made it her account. The issue was discovered and corrected. She would never be charged with stealing because the bar for criminal behavior is set really loving high for good reason. you have to show that SBF did it on purpose. I would say having self deleting messages is proof enough. Also he gave to both sides coozed up to regulators and is now doing the apology tour explaining his mistake....

I would imagine because someone could hypothetically steal while claiming its a "bank error", thus a rule/law/guidance was put forth to catch said behavior.

NoDamage posted:Why would she be charged with stealing for what sounds like a bank error? All of the charity's money went to her personal account without being approved by xyz.

Ups_rail posted:About laws and bankman. Well it's not a binary choice between throwing your cousin in jail for a bank teller's mistake and not prosecuting any millionaires for fraud unless they look into the camera and say "yes I did it I did the crimes", and imo the laws are skewed a bit too far toward making it too hard to convict white collar crime (for example, the only guy who went to jail for all the financial fraud banks were doing ahead of the 2008 collapse was a single middle manager who wrote an email to his girlfriend bragging about knowingly selling toxic securities, which is absolutely ludicrous) Although in SBF's case I don't think any of that will even matter because he has dangerously high levels of main character syndrome and keeps admitting to crimes in interviews despite his lawyers' pleas to shut the hell up.

I feel fairly confident in claiming every single NFT purchase that was in the news was some king of wash trade, and the only reason they were in the news was because journalists were tipped off that a big NFT sale had happened or was about to happen. Also, the person who tipped of reporters of these sales was almost always the person selling and buying the NFT, or someone connected to them. Either that or some fairly basic agreements between crypto idiots were they bought each other's NFTs for large sums to drum up price and publicity.

Also I feel like he probably just did a whole lot of lying about how he secure he was keeping peoples money and what he was doing with it and what not, which should be pretty easy to prove was intentional, and which could lead to criminal fraud changes.
