Firstly, the "Mr Nice Guy" media persona.
Now start from the base principle that people don't get on the front cover of major magazines, nor are pushed by the mainstream media WITHOUT it serving THEIR agenda.
And SBF and FTX was everywhere. 2/n

Firstly, Joseph Bankman is a well regarded tax lawyer from Stanford.
An expert in taxation and has written numerous books on the subject. A great asset when performing fraud for $ billions. It is reported that he worked for FTX in some capacity. 8/n

Barbara Fried is also a well connected tax lawyer from Stanford.
She is a massive Progressive, and 'enemy' of free market capitalism, going so far as to write a book named: "The Progressive Assault on Laissez-Faire". The exact opposite of crypto. 9/n

Now, more notably, she has big connections with the Democrats, and set up a rather secretive Super PAC called "Mind The Gap".
The purpose of which was to funnel money into Democratic Party candidate campaigns. 10/n

Conveniently, FTX launched a mere 13 days after Biden announced his 2020 Presidential campaign.
This allowed SBF to become one of his biggest donors...

So here you have SBF's two parents, both tax lawyers, both Progressives, both anti-free market capitalism, and who have a Democratic Super PAC.
They support their son in the BIGGEST FREE MARKET experiment in modern history, and subsequently become a huge Biden donor. 12/n

SBF repeatedly spoke about giving away his wealth to better causes. FTX is registered in a tax haven in the Bahamas.

So far, regarding the "was he a FED sent to destroy crypto?" question, we only have some evidence that at the very least, he saw crypto as a great way to make (steal) and redistribute money from the system into the hands of the Dems.

FTX is (was) a member of the World Economic Forum. 15/n 
The WEF want you to own nothing and be happy.
SBF helped them with that endeavour.
More progressivism and more redistribution to the elites. 16/n

SBF often spoke about regulating DeFi.
What is DeFi? The greatest technology ever invented to give regular people full sovereignty of their money. Financial "freedom" in the truest sense.
SBF wanted to regulate it, and thus was against it. 17/n

SBF worked closely with regulators, in particular: Gary Gensler. 18/n

Why Gensler? Well, Gensler is a Biden appointee, to whom SBF and his family are a main donor.
But also, the father Caroline Ellison (the CEO of Alameda), Glenn Ellison is VERY well connected with Gensler. 19/n

Suspiciously, Janet Yellen and Elizabeth Warren spoke similarly, immediately after the LUNA collapse. It is widely believed that Alameda were behind this also.

Aside from being warmongerers and 'foundation' money launderers, what is first thing you think of regarding Blair and Clinton?

In summary...
It's clear that SBF isn't just a regular kid who made a mistake. He's exceptionally well connected, he stole vast amounts of money, pushed regulation, and everything he did regressed the crypto space.
The End. Share it around. Thanks. 31/n
