So much that could unravel here… but I’m sure it just all gets swept under the rug. A few scapegoats spend the rest of their life in White collar prison and everyone else gets off free

Pat Flood (@rebarcock) passed away 9/21/25. Pat played a huge role in encouraging the devolopmemt of this site and donated the very first dollar to get it started. Check the thread at the top of the board for the obituary and please feel free to pay your respects there. I am going to get all the content from that thread over to his family so they can see how many people really cared for Pat outside of what they ever knew. Pat loved to tell stories and always wanted everyone else to tell stories. I think a great way we can honor Pat is to tell a story in his thread (also pinned at the top of the board).

SBF alluding to the fact that he's going to bring down Binance and CZ Zhao:

But there won't be. People in power involved with this won't let it happen because it would be bad for them if the truth of what was going on came out.
Did that the other day. Didn't have much but figured why risk it.

I saw a post tracking his plane to Venezuela yesterday.
Lots of people got screwed but I find all of this shit hilarious
It is kind of funny.
You could say in the end it was their fault, but FTX was cooking the books ( on the scale of billions) behind the scenes.
But still everyone should know that crypto is a high risk investment. Especially when you move off of Bitcoin or Etherium
And a couple brain cells could tell you that FTT ( the ftx token) was basically kohl’s cash
Wouldn’t out too much (or any) stock in this, butWhat about HBAR
