Did you already forget about FTX?

Don't you think that this holds as a warning for other much bigger exchanges?

No I don’t and what does todays announcement have to do with FTX? Aside from showing that the US government is proactive at investigating irrelevant exchanges while failing to protect anybody from mismanaged and systemically important exchanges.

Always funny how crypto-bros espouse the joys of being free from government regulation while also whining that government regulation didn't protect them from crypto grifters.

Is that what you read?

I read that people keep using mismanaged companies that happen to broker crypto assets, and then I read you conflate that with "crypto".

The best analogy to me is seeing a hardhat incident at a construction company, and deciding that "buildings" are a flawed concept, along with everyone that uses them, and perhaps lumber as well. When you should just criticize the construction company.
