SBF’s fall is almost forgotten already.

Most of the funds lost to SBF were recovered. And CPZ has a pardon. Crypto has evaporated about $2 trillion in assets since then.

  The funds in USD were recovered because bitcoins value is 5x higher than it was when he got arrested.

    And a set of fundamentally sound investments, including Anthropic iirc.

      This is painting a target around the arrow. AFAIK, they had so much money to throw around for a spray and pray, similar to VC firms

        No it’s not. This is not a moral argument. They made many investments that ended up having a positive ROI. Anthropic was one of them.

  I don't understand why you think it's OK to flagrantly violate financial laws for consumer protection, just because the bet got lucky?

I'm assuming Altman wasn't screwing his CFO and letting her post to 4chan about it, so probably not that bad.

  Altman was screwing / raping his sister so not quite sure who is worse.

    I take it back, what the actual f*ck.

      I'm no Altman stan, but 1) allegedly and 2) denied by the entire family as the words of an emotionally-unstable person. Don't believe everything you read on the Internet.
      - h2zizzle 11mo ago
        As the family black sheep who's statements are often regarded as the words of an emotionally unstable person, who's familiar with quite a few instances of such people being correct and ignored because they're inopportune (and completely preventable) trauma (if only someone had cared...) threatens the collective family bag/ego, I'm inclined to believe her.

Itll be worse. He is doing this for ego, not money from what I see.
