Alex,

Given the timing of this you can make a very credible argument that this was a Wall St. takedown (a la my Fed v. Davos argument) of a pillar of control over crypto through the use of leverage. If we're in a deflationist mindset here then it makes sense that blowing up these leverage factories is in the strategic interest of those trying to regain control over the financial system and counter the push towards fully digital money.

What I am curious about, will this wretched loaded criminal and companions be caught in Argentina and brought to justice, or not? Any way, he will surely get his 'reward' in this or his next 'life,' probably in one of the many slums the world can be proud of. Now a rich man, then a beggar ... which makes me think, why are there so many so poor off?

Nevertheless the story is a good read and hats off to you Sir.

Yes, I remember during her trial in San Jose which was postponed & disrupted by Santa Clara County’s Covid rules, the twisted surreal irony of the whole situation. Here is a woman on trial for fraud, who was on every talk show and magazine cover a couple years before. At the same time she is on trial for fraud, you see “experts” on daily news conferences on TV, unelected county health commissioners, all over the media, same messaging. Wear a mask, social distancing etc..It was very strange

Can't help but wonder whether this epic meltdown is (also) part of an apparent strategy trash the reputation of BTC in order to drive off retail investors and eventually bring it firmly under corporate control whereby it can be wholly "financialized."

It says she was supposedly sentenced to 11 years, but I'm not sure I buy it (my gut sense is that these politically/deep state connected folks go in the front door and out the back door).

I also had the same sense about John Hinkley Jr. (alleged shooter of Reagan, family friends of the Bushes, father was with World Vision, which is some kind of CIA front). I'm a clinical psychologist and used to live in DC and had occasion to visit St. Elizabeth's once. I believed the story about him being there until I actually visited and then my immediate reaction was no way.

This guy, Russ Winter, also doesn't buy the bringing the perps to justice stories for these deep state connected folks:

Found this comment over at ZH--seems like these fraudsters always have interesting connections to government criminals

Elizabeth Holmes' father, Christian Rasmus Holmes IV, was a vice president at Enron when it later went bankrupt after an accounting fraud scandal. Christian later held executive positions in government agencies such as USAID(CIA front), the EPA, and USTDA.

I am not buying any of this. Do not be surprised if we don’t hear real soon that he suicided himself. This entire story stinks and I am convinced the entire thing is a flat out lie. The reason???? I am still contemplating what is going on but I do know for sure it is not what anyone is telling us and it is not what the good guys like the author of this article think
