OK- now at sentencing of #OneCoin money launder - and more - Gilbert Armenta. Inner City Press filed to unredact Armenta's sentencing memo; got some but not all. Now will live tweet, thread below
All rise!
Armenta's lawyer: There is no proof here that OneCoin significantly harmed more than 25 people.
AUSA: In the Scott trial, Linda Cohen said she couldn't retire. There was WIllian Horn... The defendant was dating Ms Ignatova, so he knew the scope
AUSA: Victims went to see Mr Armenta in Florida...
[That was used by Armenta's lawyer to oppose Inner City Press' motion to unseal, that unsealing would put Armenta at risk]
AUSA calls the guideline sentence "astronomical;" US is asking for downward to 7 years

Co robiłbym dzisiaj jako osoba wchodząca dopiero do świata krypto?

 ⬇️

1/ jeśli chciałbym zakupić swoje pierwsze krypto nie zaczynałbym od żadnej innej giełdy niż Binance. Żadnych DEX-ów, krakenów itd. Skupiłbym się na starcie tylko na Binance.
2/ zakupiłbym jako swoje pierwsze kryptowaluty Bitcoina czy Ethereum, nie skupiałbym sie zabardzo na innych coinach na starcie. Po zakupie ETH czy BTC obserwowałbym przez jakiś czas jak to wszystko działa. Badałbym zmienność ceny, dynamike cen, po prostu uczyłbym się podstaw.
3/ dołączyłbym do jakieś ze społeczności Polskiej na telegramie czy to kryptonaród @Mikey_Satoshi czy grupa @cryptoroast_ , i starał się rozmawiac z ludzmi o tym co ma wpływ na cene krypto. Zadawalbym pytania, nie bałbym się zadać nawet najgłupszych: "co ma wpływ na cene Bitka?".

AUSA: We have requested a stay, to try to work out a disposition.
Greenwood's lawyer: Correct. Plus, we're going through a lot of discovery material. Meeting my client is difficult, given the circumstances. I don't know how the jail permits who gets visits
Greenwood's lawyer Barket: I had a few visit, then they stopped. I have three or four other clients in the facility and I can't meet any of them. We speak on the phone - once - and setting up the video conferencing has been difficult. It was easier in the summer
