Maybe, but cointelegraph also has no sources (best guess) in law enforcement, IC/fincen, etc. The others very likely do, and it's been long enough that anyone who'd care has long ago adapted to the crypto space anyway. It wou

I don't want anything; I have no intention of working for stripe. But in the face of fundraising headwinds, a decision to cut costs like this only improves (or stabilizes anyway) their ability to raise at a valuation closer to what the

That's how they're supporting their employees, but this would've already been accounted for anyway (the vesting, potential bonuses, pay through Feb 2023, etc), so this isn't accountability so much as it's "we&#

Eh, the last budget surplus we had was in 2001 (a hair over 100bln). And while it'll be impossible to sustain that without politicians carving out what they want out of it, the 90s were a period where we sustained or crept our total de

There wasn't hate, at least not broadly. There was anger, sure, but not hate. At the time the focus was on making sure the vaccinations were taken seriously so as to protect those who couldn't do it, and plenty of people instead m

Actually that's probably the most likely case lol. Still hoping for a public autopsy and case study just for the sake of the science.
