HE WAS A TEACHER BEFORE??? Hope those students made it out okay.

That opening paragraph was like a jumpscare and a comedic punchline rolled up into one

There should be a list of accounts who peddle cryptocurrency on here if there isn't one already. I don't have time to curate one, unfortunately.

I...uhm...well then.

Wait...he was a teacher?!??!?

When I joined over a year ago there were a few bitcoin fans on here already. I remember one arguing with me about the environmental impact. This is far worse obviously!

My $20k investment into #bitcoin 10 years ago is doing rather well against inflation, debasement, censorship and fiat currency crises.

*before reading the article*
"Oh the financier isn't that infamous right?"

*reads the first paragraph*
"Oh dear..."

The addendum at the bottom is so fucking funny. "Whoops, dunno how we missed this one!"

ew, bitcoin?

Let's dispense with the euphemisms, something that Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies are used for? It's child sexual abuse material.

This 2022 article is incredibly grim reading, but a huge child abuse network was taken down by authorities tracking Bitcoin transactions.

Hey, did you know that MIT's Digital Currency Initiative was funded illicitly by Jeffrey Epstein?

Almost like there’s a lot of interest (no pun intended) in wanting to use an unregulated digital currency to conduct business that would be heavily scrutinised by traditional banking institutions. Who’d have thought.

Every cryptocurrency enthusiast should have their harddrives seized in my opinion

A financial system with a name literally means "hidden money?" What could go wrong?!

audes-wisent.bsky.social•102 days ago

A totally sus currency mainly used for drug and human trafficking having a guy involved that invited other billionaires to his island to commut various sex crimes against minors? I am shocked. Shocked!

Well not that shocked.

What the actual fuck does some asshole like murdered-himself-Jeffrey Epstein gotta do with software written in C++ like Adobe Photoshop and Bitcoin?

I have a video that goes well with this, focuses on NFTs but the two might as well be the same, as NFTs don't survibe without crypto, or exist
