[@ThinkLascivious]

Oh damn, 25 years is a long stretch.

[@nectarcream8353]

Thats bull @#@ he should have gotten the 50 plus years! 25 years is not right, if it was anyone else... you can see what Lobbing can get you.

In early 2022, investors valued FTX and its U.S. operations at a combined $40 billion.

[@tomdobbs2733]

He doesn’t feel risk I bet he feels a hard back hand from another inmate at his new house

[@user-qu8lt3hf7e]

Thats what he gets

[@AB608052]

It's a crypto sentence.. it's 25 now, six months it's 2.5.. but if you don't get out its back to 12

[@AB608052]

I'm not really joking.. the amount of wealth in the company blew up with the Solana price. I'm late, but, what WAS Alameda doing.. My guess would be throwing money into new coins, which apparently have a nearly perfect failure rate.. and he says, she didn't hedge what she was doing. How would you? What goes up when tiny coins go down?

[@AB608052]

You could do it. You're going to dampen your profits by buying cryptocurrency on a performance basis

[@Piratemurf]

It’s funny crypto is up right now lol
