Supposedly she's dead now but who knows. The current biggest news scam is the FTX shit. That was a crypto exchange. They stole like a billion dollars. Is it better because he didn't disappear after fleeing to the Bahamas?

This is what I love about you crypto techbros. You just claim everything that doesn't support your beliefs isn't real. Please invest all your retirement savings into digital currencies. You'll show us.

You misunderstood what was being discussed completely, we were talking about the technical side of the lightning network, not whether or not people kill each other for money. Yes, absolutely people murder each other to take what they want, but believe it or not this happens with every currency in the world and happened even before currency existed. I can't even imagine what must go through the head of someone to think that murder/theft is something that bitcoin introduced to the world.
