drat it's good to be rich. He stole more money than anyone in the history of theft, pissed off the judge, and torpedoed his own defense by inadvertently admitting to a bunch of crimes, and he still got a comparatively light sentence.

Madoff got 150 years even though he stole way less money and pled guilty. Guess he should have gone bigger, if he'd stolen a trillion he could have gotten a blowjob and a judicial apology for all the trouble.

Madoff never went to trial and the judge's sentence was likely to have been reduced on appeal if he bothered to ask. As it stood Madoff knew he was going to die in prison regardless given his age.

I am loathe to admit it but I do believe that bitcoin will at some point hit 100k. It will also meteorically drop so it's a land of contrasts. But articles like this border on sycophantic.

I live in Poland. Over here 25 years in jail is how much you get for murder (you can also get life). 25 years for financial crimes is already a tough punishment to me, if he got forty or life it'd be insane from where I'm sitting.

I saw in some coverage of the defense lawyers statements he said some poo poo like 'sbf didn't have fraud in his heart, only math in his head' which is loving hilarious and something he should be forced to disclose to all future potential clients as a warning

Bitcoin: it’ll either go to zero (25% but unlikely!) or to a million (75% you are rich) and that EV equation is positive. Never mind I don’t bother to consider you have to invest at least 70k and never mind that there’s probably more than these two eventualities for bitcoin. You can’t lose!

I love when people go on about how bitcoin is digital money, like I just got home, saw my pay cheque had gone through and paid some bills, all in like 5 minutes, and there were no armoured cars full of banknotes involved at all!

cruft posted:What the deuce is Blur and how did it finally trigger the value collapse of URLs on the blockchain? It appears to be another NFT marketplace that is decentralized. It took all the traffic from open Sea, and now the apes are worthless because there is no one shopping for them. Somebody correct me if this is wrong though because I don’t really care about any of this and haven’t researched it very much.

They also say "I have no choice but to sell my ape and retrieve some form of financial value before it trends to zero." So yeah, not sure why anyone would want to buy this if it's trending to zero.
