You'll be able to unload, but basically only into other crypto. Exchanges that deal with crypto will see crypto prices skyrocket, then shortly collapse, as people buy BTC or other coins then try to move to other exchanges to sell for r

This. There is likely very little USD in any of the major exchanges, they are all almost certainly running a fractional reserve given recent price hikes. When the Tether nonsense implodes there'll be a bank run on all exchanges and maj

How does the SEC not crack down on Facebook misleading investors around the number of "active" users?

CA grant is such a weird premise as you essentially need to be in a position where you've done the R&D (i.e. spent all the cash) but don't have enough sales yet. Having applied for $150k for another STEM related grant in NSW w

I'm glad you're playing devil's advocate, and you're not wrong in that a single player could have multiple accounts, this was especially true on the Ongame network, as it provided the platform which sites could whitelabe
