"The trustee says that Synapse doesn't have enough to pay for an outside firm to reconcile the ledgers, estimating it would cost between $2 and $3 million."

After a bankruptcy, the bankrupt party loses financial privacy. Someone should ask the court to release the raw data. Put that in an AWS bucket and someone will probably figure out what happened.

Let's not forget Synapse has investors like Andreessen Horowitz sitting on untold billions of dollars who are totally fine fucking over the common-folk so they can hoard that much more wealth. $3 million is a rounding error to them. These people are monsters and should be named and shamed.
