well look at that. SDNY is actually using some resources on something important for once.

Democrat Maxine Waters just loves this guy!

interesting timing that he was arrested the night before he was supposed to testify under oath to Congress.

Ignoring subpoenas is cool again too, imagine that.

Strange coincidence literally comes days after YouTuber Coffeezilla tricked him into admittig to Fraud. Yet another case of the mainstream journalists not doing their jobs. In fact even until yesterday they were still in full support of this charleton. Just a young, naive innocent boy who mad made an honest mistake. LOL. No wonder people have lost all faith in the mainstream media outlets.

Democrat Maxine Waters just loves this guy!

I don't know why you say that? She has been a vocal critic of cryptocurrencies and has been leading a subcommittee within the House Banking Committee to study regulations of cryptocurrencies. Up until a couple of weeks ago there was little interest in Congress in regulating them but now it seems something from her subcommittee may go to a vote soon. It is Treasury Department officials such as Nellie Liang who are now walking back earlier comments recommending a light touch on cryptocurrencies

Situations like this are what keeps people wary of crypto

Like it's run by people who are in over their heads

Like it's run by people who are in over their heads.

Or its run by people who know exactly what they are doing and taking the money of "investors" who are in way over their heads?

Crypto isn't run by anyone. That's the whole point of the decentralization of the blockchain - no one can control it.

You are speaking of the exchanges, which are how most people interact with cryptocurrencies, but are not required, they are just a point of convenience. Of course, the convenience can result in collapses like this one, when they are run by people in over their heads.

First it was that the DOJ wouldn't touch him because he donated to Democrats.

THEN it was the DOJ only arrested him to stop him from testifying.

So, which is it? Get your wack-job conspiracy theories straight and come on back with a untied front of idiocy.

Because first he wasnt scheduled to testify at all then he was. Cant have that!

you do realize that the DOJ and Congress are different, don’t you?

So prior to a requirement to testify under oath he was freely talking to anyone about anything. Even being paid to do so.

then the.night.before he has to go under oath to Congress the DOJ swoops in to shut him up. Now no one can question him as he is “under investigation” (until 2025?)

how odd.

I see a malfunctioning jail cell camera and some sleeping guards involved in his future demise.

and yes I predicted that last time it happened too.

So you cant wait 1 more day to arrest someone who has already left the country? Has to be the night before he is scheduled to publicly testify, huh?

he sure has a lot of pictures with prominent democrats doesn’t he?
