  1. It's called MEV sandwich when executing more advanced decentralized smart contract driven swaps between different coins outside of centralised exchanges in the DEFI ecosystem. Not when holding, paying, or simply transfering crypto from one wallet to another. You will see people defending them in these comments, those are the criminals.

  24. See this is the problem. It's still a winning situation for them. People work their whole life for a fraction of 25 million. They'll spend 20 years in prison while the money is hidden away and secretly invested. They'll come out rich men. Better off than most people who have demanding jobs with little free time or where they are away from their families most of the time. It's the same with many other white collar criminals. Do we really think SBF hasn't hidden most of the missing cash away?

  42. Another reason to steer clear of cRyPTo. Anything that can have the intervention of "a rep from ethereum" is a scam. Stick to the hardest money that had ever existed… There is no second best – Study Bitcoin.
