@matdryhurst pondering how it could be used in a fantasy world not exclusively governed by billionaires feels like wasted time while we're literally getting fired and social services are being eliminated.
@matdryhurst this is an annoyingly reductive and smug take. how it works is almost irrelevant in the face of how it's marketed and deployed, by and in service of whom.
Wondering why SBF is doing interviews?
The @MarioNawfal space makes it clear: the ppl asking questions are so dumb it makes Sam look good
-Inappropriate Caroline comments
-Not understanding margin/MMs
-Cutting him off
-All arguing
SBF is running circles around these guys
There are functions in scam contracts that can let the deployer control who sends the contract’s tokens (or just make it look like they did), no matter what the addresses are
Here is the spoofed “CRO Next” tx, in which someone bought .1 ETH of this token and set the recipient for the tx to the ftx drainer wallet:

And here is the spoof Ukraine tx, also for the CRO Next erc20 token

The former could have been done by anyone, because you can set the recipient of a uniswap tx to any wallet other than the sender, but the latter was almost definitely performed by the contract deployer, as it spoofs a send from the ftx drainer wallet to the Ukraine wallet
@1badimport1 Good! I didn’t know he was making these idiotic claims. He’s creating the largest possible podium right now, and standing at it spreading dangerously false misinformation
This is the guy running those endless FTX-related Twitter spaces. This is the biggest problem with this space: traders and investors speaking out of turn about code and tech
@zachxbt@icebergy@nansen_intern We had 3 chain analysts verify it over a period of time before we tweeted
So obviously they messed up. DM me and maybe we can send you reports and you can verify and tweet it before we announce it

Well I guess I hesitate to say this is the biggest problem, but it’s certainly the biggest one when something huge is actually happening. They’re the first to run their mouths about wild bullshit made-up scenarios to their frightened audiences of millions
Does anyone have tangible proof that FTX is pushing a Trojan Virus via website / mobile app?
Seeing a lot of sensationalism and “sources”, but nothing concrete yet
the only evidence currently available at the moment is that which is on-chain. And if you’re having trouble understanding that, reconsider investing so deeply in this sector until you do!
Maintain skepticism about the veracity of the “hack” claims. The basis for nearly all “””reporting””” is this community admin post in the official FTX telegram channel. Note that his citations are a tweet saying “rumors of a hack at ftx”, and another tweet from AutismCapital.
The whole situation is obviously very fluid and very fucked up, but stop believing every harebrained technical theory invented by professional day traders who know fuck all about cybersecurity
@thejaopao@0xfoobar some shitcoin deployer created a token called fuck sbf and sent this wallet a couple thousand of them. the wallet had no agency in this transaction. No funds were sent to a contract called fuck sbf. Completely normal, and very common.
