Caroline (CEO of Alameda Research) has a tumblr account called "worldoptimization."
Her kink is men who control most major world governments, low risk aversion, responsible for important scientific discoveries
No kidding 😂
FTX had $1.4bn in BTC liabilities (~80k BTC) but didn't own a single #Bitcoin on their balance.
Yet, the BTC they "issued" absorbed buying pressure from real BTC as people trusted them, essentially expanding the M2 supply of BTC. FTX was a crypto central bank.
Essentially what’s needed going forward is #ProofOfReserves from every centralized crypto exchange or a crypto fund. If they don’t show their reserves, just treat them as scammers & fraudsters. There’s no more second chances in crypto.
Sam from FTX made a global impact for good alright… he woke every one in the world to take #ProofOfReserves seriously. If there is any centralized entity with out it, it’s a fraud 🤷♂️
Warren Buffett & Charlie Munger on crypto currencies in 2018.
Crypto attracts a lot of charlatans trading currencies and starting exchanges… it will end badly
Who knew… they were right 🤷♂️
#ProofOfReserves is a must for centralized entities handling crypto going forward. Even with proof of reserves, there are shady things happening behind the scenes like once you get a snapshot, moving funds to other exchanges for double counting.
Hong Kong based AAX crypto exchange today suddenly announced the suspension of all operations, including trading, withdrawals, etc - promise that they will try to restart everything in 7-10 days.
How to launder money 🤷♂️
How come all the corrupt scumbags care about the planet & humanity so much that they guard against pandemics, hurricanes to save y’all 😂
Minnesota was big in fraud including daycares, transportation, Medicare autism… but California is even bigger... @nickshirleyy and team uncovered over $170,000,000 in fraud as these fraudsters live in luxury with no consequences.
We ALL work way too hard and pay too much in taxes. These fraudsters have been able to defraud American taxpayers for years without any consequences.
For decades, vulnerable British children, predominantly young girls from working-class backgrounds, endured unimaginable horrors at the hands of organized grooming gangs. These predators, often operating in tight-knit networks, targeted preteens and teenagers with calculated manipulation, luring them with gifts, alcohol, and false affection before subjecting them to repeated sexual abuse, trafficking, and violence. Cities like Rotherham, Rochdale, and Oxford became epicenters of this nightmare, where thousands of victims were passed around like commodities, their cries for help drowned out by a culture of denial. The scale was staggering—reports later revealed over 1,400 cases in Rotherham alone, spanning years of systemic exploitation that shattered lives, leaving survivors with lifelong trauma, addiction, and shattered trust in society.
The police played a complicit role through inaction and willful blindness, often dismissing victims' accounts as unreliable or fearing accusations of racism, as many perpetrators hailed from specific ethnic communities. Investigations were shelved, evidence ignored, and arrests delayed to avoid stirring community tensions, allowing the abuse to fester unchecked. Politicians, particularly in local councils and national parties reliant on bloc votes from immigrant communities, turned a blind eye for electoral gain, prioritizing political correctness and vote banks over child protection. This toxic mix of cowardice and self-interest meant reports were buried, whistleblowers silenced, and justice delayed for years, exposing a profound failure of leadership that betrayed the nation's most vulnerable.
In response to this madness, the Reform Party has emerged as a vocal force pushing for radical change, advocating stricter immigration controls, enhanced child safeguarding measures, and accountability for authorities who failed. By championing policies that prioritize integration, border security, and zero-tolerance for exploitation, the party aims to dismantle the conditions that enabled such gangs to thrive, rallying public outrage into actionable reform. Their platform seeks to restore faith in institutions by demanding transparency, tougher sentencing, and community-led prevention, positioning themselves as the antidote to decades of neglect and political expediency.
The implications of mass immigration without assimilation ripple across broader Europe, fostering parallel societies where cultural clashes erode social cohesion and breed exploitation. In countries like Sweden, Germany, and France, unchecked influxes have led to no-go zones, heightened crime rates including sexual violence, and strained public services, as unintegrated groups form insulated enclaves resistant to host norms. This fragmentation fuels populist backlash, economic burdens from welfare dependencies, and a loss of national identity, ultimately threatening democratic stability and amplifying divisions that could spiral into widespread unrest if not addressed through enforced integration and controlled borders.
We’ve had the definition of "philanthropy" wrong this whole time
People get caught up in the perception of goodness rather than the reality of it
Elon Musk is right: if philanthropy literally means "love of humanity," then building companies to ensure our survival is the ultimate philanthropic act
Look at Elon Musk's playbook:
• SpaceX = Ensuring multi-planetary survival
• Tesla = Accelerating sustainable energy
• Neuralink = Curing brain injuries & mitigating AI risk
• Boring Co = Solving the everyday hell of traffic
• X & xAI = Enabling free speech & maximally truth seeking unbiased AI
Writing a check will not solve these problems. Engineering does
Engineering the future of humanity is hard. That’s real philanthropy
