You missed the VC firms that missed the fraud with their “thorough” due diligence.

Maybe this is just an example of the Greater Fool Theory[1] in action?

Care to support that claim? And maybe explain all the dark money SBF admitted to secretly funneling to the GOP? Any particular reason he would hide those 'donations'?

SBF isn't a reliable source.

Because it’s cool to support democrats but supporting republicans publicly will get you canceled.

I heard his convenient excuse too and I'm sure this known fraud and pathological liar trying to keep his criminal ass from going to prison was in fact telling the truth. SBF is just reminding the recipients he has the receipts.

there has been no evidence that those donations exist except the word of a liar.

I meant specifically the 'dark' money smb claims to have given republicans.
Re:Coinbase CEO slams media for treating Sam Bankman-Fried w... by INGSOCIALITE on Friday December 09, 2022 @12:05PM (#33923691)
Because there were no GOP donations. Why are the DNC donations all documented and above board, and the GOP ones are all undocumented and 'on the side' or 'secret'? It makes no sense at all.

How can people be so confident while being so utterly and factually incorrect?

>FTX co-founder Ryan Salame, who gave roughly $24 million to Republicans this past cycle

But some numbers for you even assuming that this was not the case

>$40 million donated by SBF to Democrats

>$2 billion of customer funds stolen by FTX

>FTX never had more than $1.5 million in crypto donation for Ukraine
