There isn't conspiracy when Binance invests $80M to buy in 20% FTX stake. The Bloomberg doc's show ppl saying FTX paid $1.5B cash to CZ to get him out of the way because he blocked their regulation attempts. Binance received $2.1B for selling 20% back to FTX.
The doc's available on Bloomberg TV it's about the collapse of FTX. It's called
RUIN. I don't like FTX or Binance. I'm not a fan of SBF or CZ because they're linked in FTX's collapse.
Are missing some kind of a link when you are referring to the "Bloomberg doc" because I am unclear about the reference, and the way you are describing the matter of Binance's/CZ's stake in FTX seems strange too. My understanding is that Binance/CZ helped to get FTX started, so it was a kind of loan that FTX paid back by using some real assets, but also by partially paying Binance/CZ with their FTT tokens. which was part of the reason that Binance/CZ had so many FTT tokens.
There is likely nothing that conspiratorial about one exchange investing in another exchange, and then once the newer exchange becomes successful to thereafter pay back the loan that they received... so Binance's 20% ownership in FTX was ONLY for a period of time, and yeah, when FTX had gotten into trouble, Binance/CZ said that they would look at the possibility of rescuing them or buying the company.. but only after a few days Binance/CZ determined that FTX was too messed up to even consider getting involved in buying it or bailing them out.
Even though Sam was continuously seeming to court favors from various kinds of regulators, it really must be questionable the extent to which they were trying to get regulated - except in kinds of scammy and scummy backdoor ways that would likely blow up sooner or later, which surely should cause many of us to pause in our thinking regarding how much we don't really know about the various back room relations that FTX had and whether politicians (and regulators) were merely involved in any kinds of ways with FTX/SBF based on their own use of FTX as ways to launder money and/or to potentially attack bitcoin and/or crypto... I am surely not claiming to understand very much, even though surely there are a lot of folks who have lost money through FTX, so they may be more motivated to look into what matters that they are able to attempt to figure out from various sources already out there, including maybe trying to figure out various kind of relationships that are still not known and/or potentially being covered up... which maybe part of the reason that some folks might be wanting the second trials against sam and maybe some others to go forward... which may or may not end up helping to bring some more of the facts to light in terms of what kinds political influence behaviors were taking place.. which truly Sam's parents and maybe even some of his family have way more culpability in their various behaviors than what is being investigated into (at least from what we know about any investigations into Sam's parents and/or relatives).
