Former Ethereum employee jailed for talking at North Korea crypto conference about dodging sanctions


https://www.pcgamer.com/former-ethereum-employee-jailed-for-talking-at-north-korea-crypto-conference-about-dodging-sanctions/


Virgil Griffith, a former employee of the Ethereum Foundation, has been sentenced to more than five years in prison and fined $100,000, after pleading guilty to conspiring to violate US law: specifically, US International Emergency Economic Powers Act (thanks, BBC). The 39 year-old was accused of having "participated in discussions regarding using cryptocurrency technologies to evade sanctions and launder money" with the North Korean authorities, per the charge sheet, and had he not cut a plea deal could have faced up to 20 years inside and $1 million in fines.

Griffith had travelled to North Korea's capital city Pyongyang in April 2019 to give a presentation on blockchain tech at a crypto conference—despite applying for and being denied permission by the US State Department to attend. Prosecutors said that Griffith understood how crypto could be used to evade US sanctions on North Korea, "participated in discussions regarding using cryptocurrency technologies to evade sanctions and launder money," and quoted parts of Griffith's presentation:

"The most important feature of blockchains is that they are open. And the DPRK can't be kept out no matter what the USA or the UN says."

FIS Partners With Fireblocks To Bring Crypto Trading, DeFi, And Staking Services To Its Global Client Base.

As the crypto industry continues to attract mainstream attention, institutions are looking for ways to get exposure to the emerging asset class. However, too often they run into friction when it comes to transacting, custodying assets, and getting onboarded at exchanges and prime brokers.

A new partnership is looking to change that.

Announced today, FIS, a publicly-traded $62 billion fintech company that offers everything from payments services to wealth management, has joined up with New York-based infrastructure company Fireblocks to provide its more than 6,000 capital markets clients access to a full suite of crypto trading and lending services.

“Globally, we are making it really easy for our client base to procure and take advantage of the Fireblocks platform,” says John Avery, FIS’s Global Product Head for Crypto and Digital Assets.

Starting today, all of FIS’ more than 6,000 capital markets clients will have access to Fireblocks’ offerings, starting with its 1,000+ partners onboarded to its network that allows quick, secure, and cheap transfers across the world 24/7/365.

What a delusional fucktard (not saying much about a shitcoiner, I know).

5 years in a US prison is a vacation compared to this: https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-northkorea-detainee/u-s-student-held-prisoner-by-north-korea-dies-days-after-release-idUSKBN19A2TW

hmmmmmm yeah, still seems rather harsh....

No doubt 5 years in US prison would be a better proposition than time in a NK prison, which is really a prison within a prison... but I do not fancy either....especially for making sounds with my face hole, and repeating perfectly readily available public information.


Oh and are BTC maximalists still a thing? I thought they all died.

As long as your face isn't firmly planted on communist dictator's ass when doing that, you'll be fine. Although I wouldn't mind if millennials moved to NK en masse to confirm their ideological beliefs in practice.

They did. You're obviously in the "shitcoin price movement tracking & discussion" thread.

I’m sure they have visited the WO thread before publishing this study. You guys are responsible.

This study was done by a goddamn psychopath who has never invested in Bitcoin.

Luckily enough I am not a millennial, nor am I planning on going to NK... though putting somone in prison for repeating publicly available info  , is the kind of behaviour I expect from.... the north koreans.

In the USA, "the land of the free" and in much of the west, it seems you only go to prison if your face fits.



If you have a face like this guys, you can do whatever you want...

I have noticed a trend in the west of late, of creating laws or enforcing laws, where really there is not a whole lot of problem... and at the same time fragrantly ignoring the actual problems..  I mean, thank god they outlawed lynching recently in the US hey ? thank the lord.


So there ARE still BTC maximalists? how quaint , that is just adorable .....

Ahhh another trick to Dominate ..

Well we are stubborn here we can't change our mind
Security of the the BTC is all about the POW proof of work here thats the Matter directly manipulation done by the VEO of the XRP here.

XRP ceo is continuous to try to dominate over the BTC network by making it an environment issue and energy consumption here..

Welp, we should be starting the long climb up the wall of worry soon.

Stonk market analysts are already talking about "peak inflation" and saying that the S&P 500 is on target for new ATH end of second quarter.

Translation: Markets are going to go up, because they have to.

The big secret: The Fed doesn't give a shit about main street inflation; they only care about how rates hikes impact the equities market.

You know, their handlers.

She didn't even last a week? She literally said she will get Bitcoin as a legal tender in Mexico in the Bitcoin Conf 2022. LOL

From getting Bitcoin as a legal tender to make a CBDC.
