Sam Bankman is now fried
But seriously, it's a very convenient end to this whole situation that there's now a big "THE END" sign hovering in front of a clusterfuck of financial crimes, with one very prominent face behind bars. Are we supposed to believe that this is it? That there's not dozens of other professional money whisperers getting away scot-free, and already planning their next move?
Naturally orange hell site is busy explaining why 25 years is too much because since his crime is so big he obviously cant repay anything or learn anything. That means any prison time is just revenge to them.
EDIT: They even admit that they can lose tens of thousands to the guy and still think mugging is worse and they would want to see them punished worse.
Show
lol literally just admitting they only care about being robbed if its a poor person doing it
So if I personally rob them I'm sure I'd be granted the same latitude by them.
No because robbing is for poor people when you are rich its called fraud. You see if you lie to someone and then take their money its different than threatening them and taking their money.
It's alright that they took my money because they don't even need it.
You people just don't understand, this is good for Bitcoin :cryptocurrency:
Seems like kind of a long time for finance crimes, but then I looked up Bernie Madoff, and he got 150 years and died in the clink in 2021
This dude deserves it, but the only reason he's actually doing time is that he broke the cardinal rule of "don't fuck over institutional investors". Did any CEOs go to jail for doing mass mortgage fraud in 2008?
no, in fact they just changed the rules of the game affecting the whole rest of the world
that's what happens when you're part of the club
Exactly. He’s just the new bernie madoff: don’t steal from the rich is the only lesson here.
good he's been devastating to the curly haired man community (me)
A guy dressed as Sheldon from the big bang theory tried to make fun of my friend on Halloween because he has hair like SBF (so do I for that matter)
Let me reiterate: A guy dressed like fucking Sheldon
It's been a nightmare out here
brother I can completely commiserate with you my coworker shyly asked me today if I was planning on getting a haircut anytime soon and I had to hit them with a stern "no I actually like my hair this long" (and because it is naturally a way curlier fro than SBF's, the weight of it has unfortunately caused my curls and hair to look EXACTLY like his does in this pic)
Cool, now put all the dipshits that mistook his ADHD for genus in jail. If you're big business boy and you can't even tell when a loser is playing you, you don't deserve to be a big business boy.
You can't just throw every MBA in jail like that. Who's going to funnel the maintenance budget into stock buybacks at my company?
Don't forget screwing up Boeing. They went from making incredibly good planes like the original 747, to the 737 MAX variants which constantly get involved in accidents. All because the MBA bean counters got to be in charge instead of the engineers.
Rooskie, I suggest you don't mistake his grifting as "ADHD"...
Glad to see that Mr. Some Banking Fraud is finally going to jail. Deserves a longer sentence honestly.
Wonder what's going to happen to all his business partners, including his girlfriend. Surely this is a green light to go after them too?
This is autistic discrimination, probably.
In like 150 years they’ll be as appalled at this as we are at when they put like disabled people on display in the circus.
It’s actually not. It sends like there is something really off with the guy. Some type of neurodivergence.
Also i don’t care that he scammed rich tech and crypto bros.
