Literal shockedshockedshocked
The old line is trite and overused, but the Quadriga fraud is a literal copy of the original movie.
But as amateur sleuths and the auditing firm retained by the exchange dug deeper, inconsistencies began to emerge. The exchange refused to reveal the public addresses of these wallets. And when the auditors finally got them, they found that six wallets that were supposed to hold nearly $100 million in coins had been emptied months before Cotten's death. Weeks later, Bloomberg reported that a co-founder of the exchange who eventually quit had once been jailed for fraud. All of this came as a shock to the exchange's clients.Directly from the movie. Gambling in a casino????? Impossible! Why would you ever expect to find gambling in a casino? Who could have predicted that people would gamble in a casino???!!!??? Many people predicted it. I predicted it 6 years ago as soon as I heard the story of bitcoin. The setup is a classic scam. Lots of money sloshing around. Suckers are led to believe that the money will be theirs if they play the game right. Suckers are developed into a religious cult. The mythical founder stated OPENLY AND EXPLICITLY that he was CIA, but the cultists are zealously convinced that they are the enemies of Deepstate, the SOLUTION to Deepstate. The cultists are convinced that they are "solving" the "problem" of fiat currency with a non-thing that can't possibly be used as a currency. The cultists are serving Gaia with a system that uses 1.5 days of an average household's energy for EACH meaningless and useless transaction. The cultists believe that running every transaction through NSA's servers is the epitome of "decentralized" and "private" and "outlaw". Bitcoin has managed to gather into one system a truly record-breaking pile of craziness and idiocy and INSTANTLY DISPROVABLE nonsense, mixing together all the swindles and Prosperity Gospels in history. ¶ 11:34 PM
