      @sebfox2194 2 года назад +36

      I don't blame the influencers this time, because SBF and FTX were thought to be legitimate by plenty of big name mainstream players. SBF was on the Cover of Forbes magazine, and was chatting with senators and testifying in Congress. And companies like Blackrock and Sequoia Capital were investing hundreds of millions into FTX. So, I don't see how you can be angry at some young RUclipsrs who also thought that he was legit.
      I agree that influencers should face consequences for promoting obvious scams, but this wasn't particularly obvious.

I'm usually not popular cause I have reservations with the hackneyed instruments and organizations that seem to have a lot of hype, but lack in substance. I'd be happy to be right calling how and when these will blow up, but everyone just gets on the bandwagon for the next lottery win.
