One thing really pops out to me about the SEC v Silvergate case: all of the defendants — similar to SBF and his publicity tour post-collapse — went out and made very specific claims about the health of their bank, publicly, and often. The SEC wants repercussions for that.

Reminder for everyone: While SBF was sentenced to 25 years he'll probably only serve 12.5 because of the First Step Act. Similarly, while Salame was sentenced to more than 7 years he'll probably serve less than 4.

What the fuck did Sam Altman think would happen after he asked for permission and Scarlett Johansson said “No” and then he ignored her? That it would be laughed about and everyone would move on? Is he a fucking moron?

Scarlett Johansson says she declined OpenAI's ChatGPT voice offer and was “shocked, angered” that Sam Altman would pursue Sky, a voice “eerily similar” to hers

The “Her” actor released a statement following OpenAI pulling its “Sky” voice from ChatGPT, which many people said sounded like her.

A US jury finds Terraform Labs and Do Kwon liable for fraud in a US SEC lawsuit, boosting SEC's efforts to assert greater control over the crypto industry

Personally — as someone who didn't get hurt during the collapse and simply an outside observer — I find this judgement to be fair. He'll get out of prison in about 20 years, a fifty something year old man, and never work in finance again. Seems appropriate.

And I'm not saying this as though the government should get involved. The fact Zhu Su, Kyle Davies, Mark Lamb, and people from FTX can fuck so many people over so recently and then immediately get funded again speaks volumes about crypto and finance.

Former crypto billionaire blames lawyers as court hears first snippets of testimony without jury present

2023-10-26
I noticed a lot of people asking about Trabucco and why he isn't testifying. This might be wrong, but I've heard his name was entered into the witness testimony because they knew he would be mentioned, not because he was expected to take the stand. Think he's still on the run.
