Suddenly this story changed a lot and it seem like Caroline is throwing SBF under the bus. Plea bargain for Sweet Caroline while SBF takes the fall after all the people will still be blaming him for what happened to the funds under his watch. You are right. But considering she'd be testifying, that can count as something. Granted, he can deny these sayings as just mere sayings on her part, but a personal diary can contain relevant evidence which can be discoverable. Her notes seem to detail meetings with herself and SBF where he disclosed some issues about the company to her and this can serve as evidence, right? Well I'm not an expert. I guess we'd find how it all went down
This is another news story. In the US, there are 2 types of lawsuit. In the first version, Sam Bankman-Freed agrees with all the charges, cooperates with the authorities, and the trial takes place in a fast procedure with a minimum sentence. If Sam Bankman-Freed refuses, and agrees to a jury trial, then if found guilty, he may receive a long prison sentence or be acquitted. The jury will decide whose testimony is more honest. Too bad for the kid to have mixed himself with the worse crime organization. Somebody has to fall anyway and it wouldn't be Carol nor Gensler or anyone else from the ones SBF had bribed. SBF used to have access to media where he can be interviewed and even attend conferences, it is different this time. Do you think that this guy did not understand that he was engaged in criminal activities, as a result of which many people and commercial organizations lost their money? But to be honest, he still has a chance to get a small prison term. I think that he is still needed for high-profile revelations before the US elections, so his criminal case is in progress.

If ... And only if it was someone like Me, then they wouldn't look at it as 4,500,000USD - they would see them as tokens ONLY. Which is the whole point of the imitation and design of Crypto in the first place. The owners of this World have made Crypto as an 'Asset' to the FIAT System - and EVEYONE has followed. So Tokens they are and they have been burned - no matter what the 'Price' of them is, and that is that. #crysx #cwi The millionaire continues to burn his assets after he burned 2500 ethereum and expensive NFTs. I can understand the NFT burning because it's a possible scam, but I have questions about the rest. "The guy who burned 2,500 $ETH($4.58M) transferred 36,188 $GMX($1.78M) and 311,003 $GNX($1.52M) to a dead address again an hour ago." https://twitter.com/lookonchain/status/1689654885162385408

@zasad@. If the SEC offers a settlement to avoid a trial by jury then this should be very bullish not only for Ripple because it will imply that Gary Gensler is not willing to fight a battle that they can lose. Ripple's lawyers are ready for all of the SEC's legal maneuverings, I reckon. CZ, other exchange CEOs and DeFi projects' teams should learn from this.
I think you will agree that it is difficult for a project to develop if it has unclosed legal problems with the SEC. Therefore, it is not always profitable to litigate for a long time. Legislation will appear, it will either be case law, which legislators will be required to take into account, or new laws will come out earlier that will put an end to this very long court case.

I think that is a double-edged sword depending on the person they run into.
The difficult thing with cryptocurrencies is knowing which area has jurisdiction over the case in the event of a scam. If you deal with someone via p2p and they have scammed you, depending on where you are staying, then such is enforceable against them. In contrast, if they have dealt with someone who prohibits the utilization of cryptocurrencies, then they cannot enforce such action against them.
Small amounts appear in p2p exchanges, I think that even in Europe it is no more than 10,000 dollars for a bank payment, but most likely these are small amounts of 200-2000 dollars. Unfortunately, due to such damage, it makes no sense to contact the police. I perceive such losses as payment for the lesson.

Did the US Department of Justice collect little evidence on this fool? The problem here is that these 2 main drug addicts and their team did not act independently, and they had their patrons in higher authorities. Therefore, next year we will see even more vivid rhetoric of some American politicians before the elections.

Ребята из Новосибирска решили, что а почему бы и не быть в России если не оплаты криптой, то хотя бы для начала более удобной торговли криптой и создали фирму «Байсейл Экчендже» для легальной торговли криптовалютами. Торгуют они, правда, «совокупностью электронных данных (цифрового кода или обозначения), содержащихся в информационной системе, не являющейся денежной единицей РФ, денежной единицей иностранного государства и (или) международной денежной или расчетной единицей», но это формально, а по факту USDT. Думаю, вы догадались, что легально заниматься подобным без проблем просто не могло получиться. По очереди «Газпромбанк», «Абсолют Банк», «Сбер» им блочат счета, запрашивают дополнительные документы и намекают на статью 115-ФЗ «О противодействии легализации (отмыванию) доходов, полученных преступным путем, и финансированию терроризма». Пока счета не забанили только в «Уралсибе» и «Альфа Банке» (и я бы предположил, что лиха беда начало!). Вообще, при всех особенностях законодательства и заявлений чиновников РФ, лезть в крипту фактически прямо об этом заявляя (и, видимо, без соответствующей крыши)... отчаянные ребята! Но результат во многом ожидаем. Пока не только оплаты криптой в России не предвидится, но я бы сказал, что и сколь-нибудь белой торговли не ожидается. Нельзя в эту ситстему приплетать банки. Вводы и выводы можно сделать через партнеров бестчендж и курсэксперт только наличкой, чтобы дураков не заблокировали в банках.

Было бы идеальным,если из 35 постов 2-4 поста допускались после 15 страницы как исключение, но как говорится если что то не устраивает, то кампаний очень много. У Бестчендж такое же условие, после 5й страницы - посты не считают, за исключением нескольких. Не вижу в этом проблем.
Посмотрите несколькими постами выше, это обсуждалось, посты после 15 страницы могут быть засчитаны, если ваш пост достаточно хорош. Это очень субъективное мнение, чтобы определить какой пост хорош а какой не очень, и мы приходим к тому что нравится и ненравится.

Да, Микстум неплохо задрал планку по подписным на форуме. Нет минимума постов, не подталкивают к избыточному постингу и есть засчитывание локал постов, что хоть как-то работает на авторитет русской локали. Ну и максимум по оплате. Неизвестно только, сохранятся ли все эти плюшки при вхождение битка в возможный новый медвежий рынок. Ну и немного странное условие по незасчёту постов поле 15-ой страницы. Чем это обусловлено? Какая тут логика? Что, после 15-ой страницы в топике идут посты уже низкого качества или они не так хорошо видны потенциальным клиентам миксера? Как по мне, если топик пользуется популярностью и туда часто заходят, то подпись будут просматривать на любой странице. А если топик проходной-одноразовый, то и до 15-ой страницы он никому не будет интересен. Было бы идеальным,если из 35 постов 2-4 поста допускались после 15 страницы как исключение, но как говорится если что то не устраивает, то кампаний очень много.

the McHenry bill is passed in the US, will it strengthen the dollar as the world's reserve currency?
The USD stable coins are backed and pegged mostly with fiat USD, that means as more people are buying the stable coins, the company that are offering the stable coins will buy more USD fiat. People across the world can buy the stable coin easily on exchanges and this is increasing the strength of USD as a foreign reserve. Unfortunately, it is not. Stablecoins are virtually pegged to the dollar, but technically American treasuries are backing the coins. China and other countries are slowly starting to get rid of treasuries, and there is no one to sell treasuries. And here companies with their stablecoins are forced to buy these obligations.

You know that PayPal has already launched its own stablecoin. The company Circle and Tether uses a dollar stablecoin, which is used not only by American companies. If the McHenry bill is passed in the US, will it strengthen the dollar as the world's reserve currency?

It really depends on the nature of the scam. In P2P trading, fiat is usually involved. So regardless of whether crypto is involved or not, it can be taken up by the court of law. Even in my country, crypto is not recognised in any way legally. Still we often face bank freeze issues and it can be taken up with legal enforcement team.
Can op please be specific what kind of scam you are referring to?
This can only be taken up in country where crypto activities are allowed, otherwise no way. In my country there is not outright ban of cryptocurrency activities but there is a prohibition that you trade crypto to fiat through the banks. The banks doesn't accept this, unless you are using the false CEX p2p where you still use the bank but not putting narration relating to crypto in the transaction. So, let's assume there is a legal confrontation, on mentioning that you transacted cryptocurrency with a particular bank, it is a problem to the bank and they will even freeze your account and the remaining balance. The only people to solve the problem is the central authority controlling the p2p In Russia, the situation is similar. Cryptocurrency is not prohibited, but banks are required to verify payments and prevent illegal commercial activity on accounts of individuals where this activity is prohibited. According to Russian law, there are no clear criteria for blocking bank accounts, and therefore each bank chooses its own policy. The bank can block any transfer of money on suspicion, and you will not sue for business damages because you have an agreement with the bank that prohibits commercial activity through this bank account. There is a maximum transfer limit, which is 600,000 rubles ($6,200), about which all data is automatically sent to Rosfinmonitoring (a large government agency that controls citizens' financial transfers, among other things). But banks also need customers, so they usually say what requirements they have for transfers between individuals and which accounts will be blocked. This is an excess of monthly limits, this is an excess of the number of payments. Until there are laws that will regulate this activity, any p2p trading in cryptocurrencies will remain in the shadow zone.

@zasad@. The second quarter on 2024 is also when the halving for bitcoin occurs and after the trial if the jury rules a favorable verdict for Ripple, then it appears that the maker of the matrix really wants to give us a bull market hehe. Also if the date of approval of the spot ETF's are signed close to the date of a favorable verdict, I reckon we should ask ourselves if we are living a simulation hehehehe. Is it supposed to be as easy as this?
I think that the trial may be a little delayed and there will be no jury decision in the second quarter. SEC can hold out with a spot ETF's verdict before the bitcoin halving, but I have another question, how to get hamsters to sell bitcoins before the pump? If your scenario is correct, then in autumn and winter there should be maximum negative on the crypto market so that hodlers sell cryptocurrencies, otherwise the pump will be unprofitable for the manipulator. How long are these types of trials before a verdict is given? If it starts during the 2nd quarter and it continues for 3 to 4 months then the verdict might be know during the middle of the 3rd quarter or in the beginnng of the 4th quarter. This is okay. If the spot ETF is approved on 2024 close to the halving's date, this will pump bitcoin and the whole cryptospace will follow. However, similar to the excitment of hype in the news, the pump stops and the market begins to wake up to reality. I speculate that it will be a favorable ruling on Ripple that will make the cryptospace pump to all time highs again. Ripple can settle the issues with the SEC and pay the fine sooner. In 2024, the US presidential election and news about Ripple will be in the background. And most projects won't be able to take the SEC in court because they don't have the kind of financial resources that Ripple can spend. But the regulation in the US is not yet complete and there will be more interesting developments next year.

In the US, you are required to declare your purchases of cryptocurrencies and pay tax on capital gains and tax on the sale of cryptocurrencies. But I know that in Miami you can exchange cryptocurrencies for cash dollars without asking private money changers. Therefore, not everyone is afraid of the tax, or only tourists do it. I don't know.
Apart from bitcoin and cryptocurrencies, trading amounts of more than $10,000 falls under anti-money laundering laws and sometimes leads to closing your bank account, it does not require special legislation for each state, but this amount varies according to the type of your account and according to the state or country. https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/understand-how-to-report-large-cash-transactionsThree years ago, there were more than 5,000 banks in the United States, and now there are more than 4,500. Although the number of banks is declining, it still provides excellent conditions for fraudsters to issue a lot of bank cards for drops and not exceed the exchange limits in each bank. For successful work, it is enough not to exceed the limits on a bank account.

@zasad@. Agreed and it appears Paypal's entry in the stablecoin market might encourage other leaders in the traditional payment processor industry to create their own stablecoins also, which will certainly be enough to take away the influence of Tether and takeover much of the volume in the cryptospace market.
I have speculated that Tether might bring the crypto edition of the Big Short, however, should we really celebrate if Paypal and other traditional payment processors have taken over the stablecoin market? This might be a similar situation as Binance and the take over of traditional finance, the real criminals.
I have studied PYUSD. https://coinmarketcap.com/community/articles/64d3a7987491e75ef9a15c6dThe prospect is very doubtful due to the risk of high fees for ERC-20 tokens. USDC capitalization has fallen by 30 billion over the past year because the crypto community does not trust the American regulator and companies. Tether looks more secure, but they will also have problems due to new regulations. ___ 💩💩💩 https://twitter.com/pashovkrum/status/1688591468498239496It might be why Paypal has entered the stablecoin market. They know stricter regulations are coming and uncle Gensler might begin cracking them down. We should research on Paypal's latest hirings in the legal department hehe. They might have hired exgovernment employees and experts in regulatory compliance. Also, with Paypal being one of the biggest and well connected companies in America, they might be exempted from uncle Gary's crackdowns because of fear of long legal battles that they might not win. However, agree on ERC20 and high fees but this is very easy to fix, very much similar to Tether when it transferred from Omni to Ethereum and presently now in Tron. It is a normal practice for all large companies in the US to hire former high officials who know how to promote the interests of the company, or in other words, how much to give bribes and to whom. I will wait for the first audit of this stablecoin, but I am sure that most of the users' money will be used to buy US Treasuries. Without this condition, no company in the United States will be allowed to make their own stablecoin.
