SBF got a reduced sentence and his second trial scuttled because he agreed to keep his mouth shut about his “donations” to the Democrats.

@@lynchsc420 - There’s scant evidence that SBF actually donated to Republicans. You want us to take SBF’s word that he did (indeed) donate to Republicans when there’s a paper trail of $45 million going to Democrats? Hilarious. We know that Democrats accepted at least $45 million from SBF (who was their second largest donor in the 2020 election cycle). How much of that stolen money has been returned by Democrats? 2.2% (less than one million dollars). Democrats have kept at least $44 million dollars that SBF stole from investors. You’re going to attempt to deflect from that by utilizing whataboutism based upon the words of the thief that stole the money in the first place. Cite the empirical evidence that SBF actually donated anywhere near $45 million to Republicans (naming the Republicans), or face the fact that just complaining about Republicans is a cop out to make excuses for SBF and Democrat corruption.

Jessica, his pseudo hedge fund was called Alameda not Al-Maida 6:09 Different topic: Those politicians, which were Democrat and GOP, should be forced to return the donations SBF gave them to the receivership group who is making restitution to people whose money was stolen by FTX. Giving the money to charity is unacceptable. The receivership group has been working on returning whatever is left to people whom SBF stole from.

Really! Hes not going to get off on a deal?????
Running his schemes were one part genius and one part sociopathic. After 25 years, maybe he will develop a healthy set of social mores? He will again be enabled, after ruining many investors' lives.
Not your keys not your crypto. Don’t leave your money on exchanges!!!!

SBF did not defraud investors of millions of dollars. He gambled with their money. If the gamble fails then his investors will lose their money. But if the gamble succeeds they will get all their money back. Right now it is looking as though the FTX creditors are looking at a 100% payout!

It's true there is crypto attached to nothing. But there is also crypto attached to infrastructure and technology built for decentralization. Similar to internet, AI and even Pharmacy start ups growing or not and all the rise and fall within the markets. Blockchain and everything built around it is powerful technology and infrastructure that will become mainstream one day.

The U.S. government does not issue a significant amount of dollars, banks, through the Federal Reserve, a private organization does.

What a tragedy! I stand with Sam here, he was "reallocating" money for a better cause...arguing that he used it for a "lavish lifestyle" is ridiculous, he always was humble and prudent in money spending. 13 million mansion (for the WHOLE team) is not an exception. Granted he played the capital game to harshly but I sincerely believe that his effective altruism ideology is based and just imagine how transformative of a change somebody with his mindset could have brought to our society. What a loss!! I m also deeply dissapointed by the public perception only focusing on surface level missmanagement technicalities. Just look at his main competitor Binance...they essentially almost got caught doing the same thing! Also the fact that Caroline so cold-heartedly betrayed him in court is beyond the pale...
