Are FTX creditors being made whole in $ at time of liquidation or in whatever shit/alt-coins they happened to hold at FTX at the time?
Who knows? It’s a classic “buy the rumour, sell the news” stock story though, so there’s something about human psychology right there.
BTC shills are always pushing for the next big thing that will pull the mass buyers in. ETFs were going to be it this time around.

Why does it tend to collapse into pseudo-religious babble when it goes off the rails? I guess it tends to be very repetitive, so maybe the training set has turned religiosity into some kind of attractive basin in the output space? Once in, you can’t get out again.
