Reply to comment by Yarddogkodabear in Russian Charged by US With Running $700 Million Crypto Scheme by WhoIsJolyonWest

Our future? America's present already has crypto and other financial scams that dwarf this penny-ante Russian stuff.

If Enron or Bernie Madoff had only stolen $700 million, you'd never even have heard of them. Enron stole $74 billion, and Madoff stole $65 billion. The Savings & Loan scandal took Americans for $160 billion, and that was way back in the 80s.

Russia wishes they were at our level of financial scammery.
