Sam Bankman-Fried was Found Guilty.
Was found guilty on all 7 counts. Will probably spend decades in jail. Well Sam. See you in about 50 or so years, or probably never...

He should. Getting shanked and all that? That's prison life.

Yea, SBF has lived a very good life. Now, he is going to be sharing a jail cell with other criminals. And taking showers with other inmates who are going to be eyeing Sam.
Doubtful.

He'll probably get sent to rich people's "prison".

Minimum security
Ability to leave during the day
Lots of amenities
etc

I do like the crypto coins. They jingle in my pants pocket better than real metal coins.

That doesn't look like what Sam will be facing according to this article.

According to this article, it looks like Sam will be in a medium-security prison but the medium-security prisons in CA aren't that great, and will pose a threat to Sam's welfare.

Good. The SEC needs to regulate the cryptocurrencies and get rid of all these clowns and bad actors that give the space a bad name. It's about time for some maturation, legitimizing the asset class once and for all and cracking down on all these shady businesses and people that try to exploit the lack of regulation

The DNC and GOP will still find ways to get their money under the table. They wouldn't have thrown SBF under the bus if they didn't have other ways.

What you're proposing just allows the government and corporations to further monitor and regulate people's lives. It's why there's such a push to abolish cash and to add 87,000 IRS agents.

*drama sense* I think it's not that simple. Probably 20 CEOs decide to share all that money and agree to only leave 1 company in trouble. His face looks slightly happy. It felt like he took the scapegoat offer, going to jail for $XX million.

Cryptocurrencies didn't exist a little more than a decade ago. The DNC and GOP have their ways regardless. They had their ways before crypto existed and they will continue to do so. Not all but most cryptocurrencies are more traceable and harder to use for under the table operations anyways versus the USD

Stocks, bonds( Treasury and corporate), commodities, money market funds and everything else that's traded on the New York stock exchange is regulated by the SEC. So why not regulate cryptocurrency? Regulation brings clarity, Consumer protection and will at least reduce the number people using these assets for nefarious purposes.

They don't even have adequate clear tax laws encompassing cryptocurrency and it's seemingly purposefully left ambiguous at best for the betterment of the IRS, not the taxpayer/citizen.

Regulation doesn't mean that you have to enter into the government "monitoring and regulating people's lives" as you say. The stock market is the greatest game there is to be played, but that doesn't mean you're required to play it. You can feel free to sit on the sidelines and not put your money into it. Just like in the future after regulation, you have the freedom to not purchase any cryptocurrency or regulated funds that include cryptocurrency.

There's not a downside to regulation and clarity, unless you are a speculator or using cryptocurrency for illegitimate purposes.

"why there's such a push to abolish cash and to add 87,000 IRS agents"

Countries are going to continue issue sovereign currency. I do agree that a digital dollar that is easily tracked is on its way and inevitable. That's why more than ever it's important to understand the alternative options that we now have. Something like bitcoin for instance, that is not a sovereign currency and the government cannot control despite their best efforts. It's the best chance at financial freedom we have currently

KYC regulations are applied to every asset class that is traded on the NYSE. Basically the IRS and the SEC know what you're buying and who's buying it. There's no way that due to taxes alone they are going to let cryptocurrencies circumvent that regulation for much longer. Uncle Sam just wants to get paid and once they're cut. It takes money to make money and investors know that you got to pay Uncle Sam and accept that reality. Cryptocurrency is going to be no different eventually. Doesn't mean they're controlling your life, They just want to peer into it. Unless you are a person that's not a citizen and without country, you're going to be subjected to eyes looking in no matter where you are. Might as well make it safer at least.
