Yeah, and if he had taken all that money, bet it on black, and won in roulette a couple times, he'd have also made a killing. Didn't mean it was the right strategy or a moral decision with people's savings.

That's exactly what the US judging SBF said: those shares were acquired will stolen funds.

Not only that: it's obvious, now that we know that the Amodei behind Anthropic are from that same despicable EA movement as SBF, that these were EA-bros helping each other (with stolen funds).

Like EA's guru who acquired a 15 million pounds mansion in the UK with Alameda/FTX stolen funds "gifted" by SBF. This mansion, AFAIK, hasn't been clawed back yet but I know for a fact that misappropriated funds in the "Hermes" fund in the Bernie Madoff ponzi have been clawed back for more than a decade after the fact.

These things takes time: so hopefully at some point this little EA clique gets this mansion seized.

P.S: as a sidenote it's interesting that they didn't effectively altruistically handed that mansion back when they "learned" (as if they didn't know it) that SBF was scamming users.

P.P.S: the returns promised in the Alameda leaflet, before FTX even existed, were already bullshit. SBF was a scammer from day one.
