I guess ?
Just received a mail from Coinbase that my account is now flagged for suspicious activity, and I can only transfer my coins out. Nothing else.
Now I'm truly curious what is that suspicious activity! I stopped using coinbase in 2020 except for Coinbase earn.
I wanted to ask the support wataboutit ? But their bot just close my live chat. Their subreddit is filled with people with blocked accounts telling that coinbase never answer, or if they do, it's with "won't tell for security reason"
So yeah, just laughing at the absurdity and I wanted to share my incredulity.
Now I'm gonna transfer out my hard earned 258 GRT (~16 USD). Definitely the bounty of a money launderer or whatever they think it is
One certainly can argue that financial privacy aka a Swiss bank account on your mobile phone is nothing corrupt clown-world-governments would want "their" citizens to have access to. That's why the will try to "regulate" it out of existence or outright state attack it*. More on that below.
One may dream
In another world where people are free to choose their destiny and are not herded into certain government "certified" and commanded trades the same headline could sound like this: "Monero has delisted most CEXs & is banning EU regulators next."
* Must read paper on how to treat different cryptocurrencies from a government/regulator perspective:
In this paper the authors are specifically talking about three coins: Bitcoin (good, but likely not GDPR compliant), Zcash (good) and Monero (bad, because not AML/KYC compliant). They haven been classifying those three coins along the talking points in this article.
Monero is the coin that is seen as a risk to public safety hence deserves to be state attacked. Quite a few mechanisms are described in that article that many here suspected for a long time (e.g. price suppression, network attacks,...).
"A set of tools to combat privacy-coins may include means of a different technological, regulatory, economic (fiscal) nature, also including state attacks on underlying privacy-blockchains. The letter tool, as possible regulatory access points of the blockchain space, was already mentioned by Finck [16], however, without further analysis in that domain. The AML/CFT measures should concentrate on the cryptocurrency of indicated networks, instead of targeting the people who are members of their communities. The tools can and should aim towards reducing the particular currencies’ value, consequently inducing a voluntary outflow of their users."

Never listen to this guy Kevin, he's delusional. Sam had access to all trades, liquidations, insider info, listings, pumps dumps. Got commissions, Got into project that gave him free tokens, printed billions out of thin air with FTT and somehow he found a way to make losing trades and have shit risk and scam all his investors and customers.
And Kevin is sucking him off, wishing to work with him again?
I've seen some stupid stuff this year but I literally was lmao at this. If you have anything invested in Kevin's company you should exit ASAP.
He seemed so risk adverse in that stupid show but here he is showing not an ounce of risk management before, during, after this FTX thing.
Just remember this idiocy the next time he shills you something on his show or interviews.
Hopefully this is enough characters. This is comedy, I'm pretty sure.
Don't forget how stupid Raul Pal is either (telling people how great Luna and Sol was). I can't wait to see Jonah Hill play SBF in the stupid documentary
Just remember in 2024ish when guys pull the same playbook.

I'm tired of all articles and SBF face all over, on all sites I visit. It's still like half the articles on this sub.
Setting aside how investors who have funds stuck there will be made whole again, I don't care about this shitty company and the 'smart' hack of a prick and the 'layers' to the story.
We need an Extension that replaces SBF's punchable face with puppies from r/aww and replaces any mention of FTX, SBF, etc. with articles from r/UpliftingNews.
Please nerds, do it.
PS: May as well add CZ and "binance" to the list.
im sitting here eating taquitos and drinking coke and was wondering what everyone here would do if moons mooned? mooning can be mean different things for everyone,and depending on the amount of moons in your bag, reaching different price targets could also mean different things as well. regardless, it’s the future, moons have mooned (enough for you to do ____) what are you doing? personally i would probably find out that moons mooned by coming on this subreddit one morning to 1000+ posts about the lift off, and I would spend my immediate time basking in the moon glory with strangers on reddit, before proceeding to light a joint in the office. yes you read that right I would go out to my car because I forgot my coffee, grab my jar and roll up king Kong’s finger, return to my desk and spark this beast. in this moment I have none of the usual fear for my floor manager that I usually have and when he comes over to my desk to immediately inform me that I’m fired I look at him straight in his eyes and tell him “well Jerry that doesn’t matter at all, you wanna know why? because the moons i got from shitposting on reddit are worth more then your salary from the last 10 years!� i then gather my belongings and turn to him and blow smoke all in his face before security forces me out of the building. what would you do if moons mooned?
Its almost poetic that this all started with a Coindesk article. Of course it goes deeper than that with the likes of SBF and Do Kwon who are the real perpetrators who got us where we are, but the real catalyst was that Coindesk article (will refer to it as the article).
FTX is big fish but the Lehman here is DCG with an estimated AUM of $50B, so they got a couple spendys they playin with. Its unlikely that DCG goes boom because they still make money (Grayscale makes shareholders a pretty penny through management fees, even if its at a discount). Unfortunately they have that deformed child that they keep chained up in the attic, Genesis. It looks like theyve YOLO’d the last of the leverage they had and are prepared to file for bankruptcy this week since no one wants to pay the yard theyre asking for, we shall see. They’ve brought shame to their family by:
Big exposure to 3AC by virtue of lending them $2.4B (daddy DCG came to the rescue and paid half, they filed the other half in the claim)
Took a big bet on the genius of our hero Do Kwon, paying him $1.5B of hard bitcoin for $1.5B of hard UST
Decided to play it safe after LUNA collapse so trusted $175M in the safe hands of FTX…oops.
This is all knowledge we have thanks to the blessed and omnipotent article. In this sub we have lately been critical of journalism, what we should do is honour the heroism of things like the article. As owners of Coindesk and therefore the article, we must commend DCG for allowing them to commit the ultimate crypto seppuku by publishing the exposé on Alameda/FTX, and by proxy Genesis/DCG/Coindesk itself.
