Whatever system you're in, you have to do a little grift from time to time, and the promise of crypto is a huge reward for very little work. That's how SBF's parents, respected academics one of whom is an ethics professor, got caught up in a multibillion dollar fraud. It's simply too hard to turn down. https://slate.com/technology/2023/09/sam-bankman-fried-paren...
