Rich folk have platters of cocaine, razor blades, and straws. Alcohol is only a while before you leave, so you can drive home drunk to cover for the cocaine overdose.

the dead canadian exchange with the dead canadian founder was QuadrigaCX. this happened right before the panamanian "not technically a financial institution" financial institution than handled their real money transactions was targetted by the doj and a bunch of people got arrested/indicted. doj says that crypto capital was/is a front for laundering by/through crypto exchanges apparently crypto capital was the "financial institution" bitfinex used for the original shell game with tether, when they were still claiming that tether.io was a separate entity that was stepping in to cover bitfinex's shortfall after the "hack" and 30% haircut thing

Someone mentioned a story earlier about a guy who tried to peddle Bitcoin as the way of the future to a forum for sex workers? Does anyone have more info on that? It sounds familiar but I'm having a lot of trouble looking it up.

Like, what the gently caress,” Beeple recalled, recalling the day he received the money in Miami, where he flew on a booked private jet to celebrate. “I’m not remotely a crypto-purist. I was making digital art long before any of this poo poo, and if all this loving NFT stuff went away tomorrow I would still be making digital art,” he said.

Of course there are; coiners are cultists, and their dedication to their religion actually bothers me as a Christian because many times in my life I have not been as evangelical as I see them act
