Rambling, pointless article is rambling and pointless. The author has a clear ideological axe to grind and if you read his other articles, he makes the same arguments over and over again ad nauseum as if he's a broken jukebox that gets kicked every time he writes another article.
- robertlagrant 4y agoThis is just ad hominem.
- bambax 4y agoI disagree. This article is extremely poorly written and is in fact rambling; it's hard to understand where it's going and what its point is. The only (mildly) useful part is the extract from the interview with Terry Duffy.
- smcl 4y agoThis happens after events like this - people show up after the fact saying they told you so. There's usually news clips, articles or even tweets where they loudly and clearly claim "I am saying that X is going to happen". And they're often getting laughed at or being described as hysterical, so I don't begrudge people if they want to get a bit of revenge and indulge in a bit of schadenfreude at their erstwhile tormentors' expense. But to try to claim credit with "my friend privately said X would happen" is a fairly bizarre brag, I don't think second-hand dubious clout is worth much. In any case, a good number of people have been loudly pleading with the world to be not just skeptical of FTX, but of all of these insanely valued crypto companies - they're often dismissed as haters.
