The Rise and Fall of FTX Cryptocurrency Exchange

FTX Cryptocurrency Exchange was once thought to be a pillar of legitimacy in the Cryptoworld. Sam Bankman-Fried, the company's former CEO, is now answering to over $3.1 billion in unsecured claims. The company filed Chapter 11 bankruptcy earlier this month. Our team at Motherboard dives into what exactly happened, and what this means for the future of the company.

[@cbgg1585]

What an !diot. KZbin has scams and spambots, does that make KZbin a scam product as a whole? People hear the word crypto and immediately have negative connotations, start talking about get rich quick schemes and all that BS. How about the current banking system? Banks are more of a scam than what crypto is. You put your money in the bank, the bank lends out your money for interest and in return you gain basically nothing on an annual basis.

[@cbgg1585]

Crypto was NOT designed so we can have devs rugpull a video game, ape paintings to sell for millions or centralized exchanges screwing over its customers. Crypto was created so the entire financial sector can be revolutionized. The rise of crypto technology like XRP signals a fundamental market need for a frictionless finance system with on demand liquidity and instant payments (evidenced by the fact the biggest banks in the world such as DBS, Standard Charted and the Bank of England etc) all positioning themselves for a modernized banking system.

[@cbgg1585]

Banks already have the scale, infrastructure and decent levels of trust needed to deliver the crypto-vision to the public at large. Crypto ultimately won’t destroy banks, BUT banks will need crypto to accelerate the entire banking system. Like it or not, bank are no longer fit for the purposes of sending money efficiently. Assets like XRP replaces foreign exchange fees aka nostro vostro accounts in the course of sending money overseas in mere seconds.

[@cbgg1585]

So, unless you never use money again, crypto will be an essential part of your life. You see the irony here?

Establishing its headquarters in The Bahamas SHOULD have been a red flag for investors, and I use the term "investor" loosely when I'm talking about crypto. All of these fad investments: crypto, NFTs, and anything else that is not what Warren Buffet calls a "productive asset", anything that has no intrinsic value, are doomed to failure at some point because there is nothing to prop up the increase in supposed value. In other words, you have to depend upon someone paying you more than what you paid. There's no other way for crypto to increase in value, aside from someone's willingness to purchase it. And when people decide they are no longer willing to prop up crypto with their money, you are left holding a digital token that doesn't even exist outside of the blockchain. It's ones and zeros in the cloud.

[@asleepawake3645]

This argument works for anything with a capital value. What people don't get is that crypto DOES have intrinsic value, and that value is inevitably tied to the level of human activity around it and how it is used. It is DESIGNED as a currency, which is basically a tool to TRANSFER capital value in the most LIQUID way possible. Warren Buffet's.BNF can lose value as much as crpyto does

[@zeitgeistx5239]

The problem is crypto is a scam as it’s a highly speculative investment with no utility besides laundering money. Thus, all exchanges except Coinbase are off shore. With Binance openly bragging about lying to US gov. Both Binance and FTX encouraged US customers to use VPN to access them.

[@poneis88]

You could say the same for any tradicional currency. It is just a piece of paper with a picture of a dead guy on it or just zeros and ones, as most of the value of a currency is created out of thin air by the government and is stored as digital numbers on banks. Nonetheless, us dollars or euros are sought over as a safe, solid currencies. Cryptos have more desirable properties, besides being a currency, like the hability to store and execute a contract or do instant transactions with anyone in the world without the need of banks or governments getting in the way.

Hey vice, long time fan, can we go back to this island they unearthed on some tumblr blog. In 20 years time are we gonna get a vice documentary???

[@xfrex1837]

BRO WHY ARE YOU NOT TALKING ABOUT ON26AM

[@sanjartuymuradov9018]

ON26AM gang in the house! Thanks for the analysis!

[@tadiafoster4460]

Go big or go home- straight to the Big house with bright orange lol 😂

[@nohypocrisy]

the mind, the soul, idea, intent, reason, fear, health, reality, universe

[@phreyblessng]

Nice conversation. Please research on #Paw and tell us more

[@michaelshirley3042]

when the "house of cards" falls.. who picks up the cards??

[@scarpfish]

Good lord, this entire comments section is nothing but crypto bot spam.

[@peterc6559]

the amount of bots shilling in these comments is insane

[@tinetannies4637]

The comments section is FILLED with scam conversations between "people" (read "bogus accounts") recommending various traders and financial advisors. People, be smart, NEVER fall for "advice" from anonymous people on social media.

[@yashwith100]

I really hope vices doesn't cover sbf as new york times and wall street journal did !

[@aoxhkqjskqjdks2749]

I've had the feeling BTC would be going to 3k as well. Clearing out all my Alts going into BTC and ON72AMonly, maybe a little BNB.

[@Goldsavergamer]

Hard wallets folks… use exchanges to buy crypto but never use them to store crypto.

[@twitchyt2321]

My ON26AM shorts are doing pretty well and I plan to hold much longer.

[@cmmnsenserules4339]

One of the largest?

[@emilmmmdov2058]

Look like Algorand has the same chart then Amazons ON26AM

[@Medine_01]

What about ON26AM

[@bakkanal3458]

Will you make any research videos about ON26AM

[@coreykvoa4773]

This good of been done way better for visuals....

[@sailpro2001]

Hmmm… good article … but the fundamentals of the article are a bit wrong… we still do not who he is… why all went this bad and the intricacies of FTX

[@vejet]

Moral of the story; Never trust a leg shaker 2:42/2:49

[@ZLO901]

There is no money without labor. Adams course…😮

[@wayneflint8077]

Man I feel your pain.

[@sprinterx]

Crypto is a curse on the financial system of the world. It will all end in tears.

[@LuckyChuck795]

Can we go ahead and give the staples center its name back yet 🤣

[@sadeceadamlk8892]

Best utility so far in whole crypto space

[@samrob]

Asset like #PAW that have their own custodial wallet is the best in the space

[@johncellustand]

Okay why didn’t he just stick with creating the exchange and just eliminate the hedge fund part of his company

[@ifycynthiaamoke2520]

CEX should have a protection funds to guard against investors funds... big lessons learned from FTX.... the best way to avoid this is decentralisation.... join and invest in #paw, a decentralised digital currency... one of the top Gems that will perform greatly during the bull season.

[@warrenpeece1726]

SBF was close to politicians and media types, which no doubt helped facilitate his scam. He contributed tens of millions to politicians and was a media darling. A big part of the puzzle that is ignored in this video.

[@softiesnisa4461]

ON26AM, ETH, and more would be great.

[@hotdogwithketchup1843]

I feel great trading on Bitfinex and now I realize that I did the right thing by choosing this exchange instead of FTX or anything else.

[@rodezno6164]

People please be aware of bot comments. A lot of them read like this: , I’ve been doing crypto and never lost any money ( why do so many start with a comma ? )

[@benjaminwokoma]

How about #PAW. It does have all the required energy to pump real hard

[@occidentalinstitute8388]

Sorry Eddie! I don't know where your coin is. Hope you're rich as hell. Stay warm.
