    So if you bought say $100 of Bitcoin on FTX they would show you a screen with some BTC balance, but it was actually a ruse in which they just straight up stole your $100.

    Cool, so if they owe you $1000 at least you can get 60¢.

    Just imagine how much higher Bitcoin would be if they actually bought Bitcoin when clients purchased it….

    And people wonder why the BTC price didn’t break 100K. Nothing like those fake satoshis to push the price up lol

    FTX’s “Paper Bitcoins” is the reason that the top was short of what everyone was convinced the top was to be. Causing Stock To Flow and several other predictions all to fail.

    It also likely caused BTC to fall further down than predicted. It should have never fallen below the former ATH.

    Not only did FTX screw their own customers, but they screwed EVERYONE by “issuing Bitcoin” they never had.

    Wow, FTX really screwed up this time. Looks like their customers are out of luck and they’re not gonna get their money back. What a shame.

    Sorry, I opened the attached chart. Looks like a total of an 8.693 Billion dollar loss with BTC comprising 1.585 billion. What a cluster!!!

    Wow, FTX really screwed the pooch on this one. Maybe they should try their hand at a lemonade stand instead of handling other people’s Bitcoin.

    Binance could have transferred enough off the books to cover that!

    “In its latest backroom maneuver, Binance transferred $1.8 billion in stablecoin collateral to hedge funds, including Alameda and Cumberland/DRW, leaving its other investors exposed.”

    FTX is a catastrophe and we have known that since November. Depositors are unlikely to see much, if any of their funds back. Voyager and Celsius are similar stories.

    Yet Gary Gensler the most useless head of the SEC (and that is quite a feat to be that bad given the competition) met with SBF multiple times so he could help him rig regulation while refusing to meet with the people from legit projects. If you haven’t written to your politicians and demand they remove him, you are part of the problem.

    That’s about how much actual US dollars in cash their is vs made up electronic cash. If everyone closed all their accounts and demanded greenbacks, each person would get 0.06 cents per dollar if they were lucky!
