Reply to comment by Sm00gz in FTX coach says executives were ‘UNDERSEXED’, denies rampant amphetamine use by Science_421

To add to the above, FTX offered "tokenized" stocks, meaning that a token was the same as a share of the company offered. I came as no surprise when it was discovered that none of the underlying securities had actually been purchased. He was just taking money and doing what he wanted with it.

This is part of a greater scam going on where all kinds of regulatory hoops are completed skirted in order to maintain a system that is more fraudulent than your worst nightmares have imagined.

Makes me wonder why there weren't any safety guards but i don't know much if anything at all on the subject.

The "safe guards" in place don't really exist to protect retail investors.

This will come across as hyperbole, but it's not. What you see going on in the world right now, the chaos, the blatant display of corruption in politics and business... that's nothing compared to the irredeemable cesspool that is the US financial system. It won't be much longer before that's laid bare for all to see.

The amount of blatant fraud, counterfeiting, and theft is staggering.
