I was not even talking crypto but 'normal' CEOs. I mean a famous one was the guy (do not think he was the CEO but close to him?) from Groupon: he was a known scammer and yet, he gets bingo every time. And many many more.
Edit: whoops I never knew what became of Groupon but I see it was a massive scam altogether. Seems the investors could have known that from the first time they met the founders by just typing some names into Google. How does that work?

They almost always seem to get bingo; the companies and the people that rely on them take the hit. https://www.nationalobserver.com/2016/02/18/news/did-kevin-oleary-once-wipe-out-entire-industry https://www.nationalobserver.com/2016/02/18/news/did-kevin-o...

Things do not keep growing. Covid delayed the real crisis. I digress: yes people like this: how can you not do a basic amount of dd and at least ask some people about them?
