lol this is good for bitcoin or something
Unbelievable. I thought he alone would get away, since he seemed to enjoy the protection of higher powers. I wonder if the UAE will extradite him ?
He gonna give a bad rep to bitcoin
Bitcoin already had a bad rep since Mt. Gox.
Since day one and people could see what it really was.
paywall I sleep
$4 billion in fines? Let’s see how liquid Binance really is.
"friends with the UAE" level liquid, apparently
I hate you might be right.
Or use reader mode on Firefox or any of a bunch of browserd
Please, let his response be:
4
I don't get it
CZ would freguently post "4" in response to criticism or allegations. It was his way of saying all of the bad news about him was FUD.
Hopefully he lands in jail, but I don't think he'll be coming to the US anytime soon.
It's in the article. The guy uses the number 4 as a symbol of his innocence or something along those lines.
I see it now, thanks. Guess I skimmed the last half earlier.
At some point CZ outlined a bunch of "rules" for winning bigly in crypto (read: "getting suckered by his scam") and rule 4 was "Ignore FUD." Ever since, when bad news happened he would just reply with "4" as a shorthand.
So no more shitposting from this guy?
Does this mean we get to increase the block size and make bitcoin viable again?
