Friday Workout — Unstable Geniuses; FTX WTF; Corestate Leaves it Late
- Chris Haffenden
A lot has happened since my holiday at the end of last week, which was followed by a couple of days out of action with man flu. Stability and integrity were in short supply in my absence. Our trust and belief in stable geniuses has certainly taken a battering in the interim.
Ahead of the US mid-term elections, we faced the prospect of the Chief Twit removing content moderation and maybe re-platforming an overtly orange Floridian while charging us all $8 for a blue tick or forcing us to fly the coop to Mastodon. We then had an acrimonious dispute from a bunch of anachronisms, SBF, CZ and FTX (perhaps if I changed my name to HFF, I might get a million more eyeballs) as Crypto may have just had its Bear Stearns and JPMorgan moment.
