FTX sues SBF, others over ‘worthless’ fintech company acquisition

I've been ignoring Mr Patsy for a while, but this is priceless.

Bankrupt crypto exchange FTX sued Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF) and other former executives of the company for the $250 million acquisition of stock clearing platform Embed.

FTX liquidators said no investor was willing to pay more than $1 million for the company less than four months after SBF acquired it.

and

... lawsuit alleged that the deal was significantly overpriced.

Somewhat like FTX itself! I still have my sights on some of the VCs who pumped and shilled FTX to their more naive colleagues - and the whole world.

The founder and CEO of Embed was Michael Giles. I'd dig a little deeper into that connection.

'Big Short' author Michael Lewis says he's almost done writing SBF book

"I thought 'I don't have a book,'" Lewis said. "I had this conversation with kind of a person I used as a sounding board...And he said 'your problem is you don't have third act. You have the first two acts, but you don't have a third act.' And I said 'that's absolutely right. I don't know how to end it.' A week later, FTX blows up. I was so grateful."

Grateful!? I'd be fkin ecstatic!!! Bestseller guaranteed.

Which also reveals he was unable to see through the charade earlier - no clues? bah!

more effective altruism? where the "altrui" just happens to be a friend or similar woketard, channeling funds into social behaviorist programs. That's a lot of money spent on "worthless".

That is a huge over-valuation!
Then again, how much was paid in FTT tokens. lol

I haven't delved very deeply into this angle, but I mean, if $1m is paid in tokens that are later worthless, then is one recovering that $1m or the tokens paid? Lawyers will want to be paid!
