Purely a planned operation to usher in fed digital dollar. Whether they purposely told him to do it, or they allowed him to do it - this will bring digital currency and more control. Good luck everyone.

The MSM dealt with SBF the way they deal with any left leaning politician spouting what they feel are the correct talking points. They never fact check, investigate or ask tough questions of them. There are very, very few investigative journalists, who dig deep for the truth. That's why most of us are here on Unreported Truths, we were starving for facts and real journalism, not just the same prepackaged "information" that is repeated on all sites.

SBF just admitted that FTX didn't buy bitcoins for clients but just took their money. Why isn't this guy in jail already?

What I can't stand is all of this talk about him "lending" FTX customers $$ to Alameda. He didn't lend anything - he took (aka stole) it. He can claim he was going to pay it back but he never had the right to to steal it in the first place.

Let's say I'm $150 in debt. If I break into your hourse and take $100 and go down to the casino and lay it on black and it comes up on red, no one would way I borrowed your money. I stole it. What I would or would not have done if it came up black doesn't matter. It's still theft.

Considering Madoff got 150 years, I was hoping this guy would get life. My cynical buddy disagreed and said, "You don't understand how this works. I will bet you right now he never spends a day in jail. Look who he has donated to."

We agreed to bet. He only gets paid if it's zero days. I get paid if it's more than 20.

This is good work by you, Alex. If anyone trusts and relies upon CNBC or Bloomberg they are deluding themselves.

I’m not a fan of the term investor when referring to cryptos. They are speculators.

Aside from all the money he ripped off...

I can't help but think SBF has a pile of super-secret money stashed somewhere. Maybe it's gold coins? Perhaps diamonds?

Is anyone checking the Cayman Islands and Switzerland?

For that matter, given the corruption of the FBI, has anyone checked the glove compartment in SBF's Corolla?

Calling the media the media is a horrible insult to an actual news reporter. I love reading articles from organizations such as the Associated Press so I can get the “reporters” feelings on the story instead of the facts. Much better.

Closely related to Alex's relationship with medical establishment and Big Tech leaders, I will venture that SBF is evidence that our world is sorely lacking in attributions of guilt and shame. This man has taken little responsibiity for the obvious disaster over which he was primary author. It is sobering to note the incompetence and blindness of so many of these young financial pseudo-gurus. It reminds me of the arrogance and blindness of Tony Fauci. SBF needs to go to jail, for sure. Why has he not been extradited? I would like to see investigative journalists shed light on this question.

Please read or listen to Whitney Webb asking very probing questions. One of the big ones is “Was this a money laundering scheme and fraud or was it just an intelligence operation that was outed too soon? “ Seems there are interesting connections to so many players in the covid scam , Ukraine and US politicians on both sides.

Once again, the little guy gets screwed. MSM seems to be fulfilling its role by not investigating. Do they even know how anymore?

Is there anything that the Legacy media Democrats don't do that is corrupt? You speak about the Media why is the media ignoring Hospital Medical supplies this started shortly after Uncle Joe took office. And it's only getting worse and nobody is addressing this serious Problem. In India Pharmaceutical companies are not making certain Medications Putting People lives in Possible dangerous situation. There's so much going on really bad in our own country when we can't take care of our own citizens here in America 🇺🇸 Manufacturer items went from 1 to 3 months up to 3 to 6 months Possible waiting time. Can people who need a new battery for the brain wait 6 Months Uncle Joe? The elite media is involved in the scam they even might have insurance for the lose who knows and who cares they are all nuts and liars in my book.

Thanks for this - it helped me understand the whole fraud a great deal better.

I learned. Why hasn't the media. I watched the Big Short 6+ times as an instructional video and M Cohodes quotes almost verbatim is right out of Big Short: "Bloomberg said if we go to him with these questions, we’ll lose access, and then they said it’s bad for business…". When the business media admits to preferential treatment that's the time to go short...and big. Every 20 years someone invents another Ponzi scheme and the media SHOULD be screaming it, but it doesn't, they're first pigs to the trough.

"Everyone failed everyone huge." That's not quite correct, they didn't fail themselves.

I'm sure the DNC, RNC and other political hacks are lining up to return funds sent to them by SBF so others can be made whole.....NOT!

It is just like Ukraine. If you believe the half of what is being said on this issue, I have a bridge to sell you!

“If the world never decides that we are wrong about this in like a coordinated way, right? Like you're kind of the guy calling and saying, no, this thing's actually worthless, but in what sense are you right?”

This passage brings to mind the criminally-insane Harari and his inane mumblings about 'imagined' realities.
