How he's got away with it for this long is unreal
He’s part of the tribe. 🤪.
SBF getting away with fraud , who’d a thunk it , part of the tribe.
Once you accept this reality it’s very easy to avoid the scams.
Do with this information what you want, but don’t say you did not see it coming the next time there is a big crypto fraud.
What tribe?
😂😂😂😂
Oh the innocents…… or premium bate 😂😂😂
Edit. 🤔
Apaches
I’d love to read one of his pamphlets.
Just spotted these chancers
https://www.taracoins.com/
Website seems shady, "All will be revealed in due course" type guff.
Shill
I'm sorry, are you accusing me of shilling?
Don’t take it personally dude, given the lack of regulation on boards the default is always to assume shill first.
On a side note, PayPal have now entered the building, ok they can freeze their stablecoin anytime they want, and they appear to be using a years old version of coding but still, these can change, the first of many payment payment firms to appear?
Whats that got to do with crypto?
All stablecoins can be frozen. USDT do it all the time.
Don't mind me, lack of sleep and overtime has me making links that don't exist.
You are forgiven, btw physical is out, virtual is in
I know, I spotted Tara trading and looked up Tara coin and half read the site thinking they were claiming to match tokens with silver, which wouldn't surprise me.
Like I said, heads up me hole.
pfft. No, they didn’t cook the books to save the world. They didn’t do anything good for starters. He bought his parents a mansion in the Bahamas and the **** car was for show.
Effective! Altruism?
Well lots of charities are scams anyway.
Which ones?
Effective Altruism is dishonest. It's an excuse to accumulate as much wealth as possible with the licence to be a good guy by saying you will give it all away, regardless of what you spend and whatever the hell you might do in a few decades.
Not all of it is dishonest, I believe there are some people who donate a portion of their salary and are committed to it, Sam Harris does it, and there does seem to be many more. It’s basically asking people to put their money where their mouth is but you are still entitled to earn a living.
Theres a part in the going infinite book which mentions sbf being approached to participate, I believe he went along as it fitted with his own utilitarian views.
What would I be searching for?
Start with McVerry and work your way down - but this is not a charity forum
What's the scam with McVerry?
Any charity that doesn’t publish where they spend their money which turns out to be most. Most of these organisations are not transparent and have overpaid staff looking out for themselves and trying to guilt the masses. “We all need to give more” say the person on 100k plus funded by the taxpayer. Every year there’s another scandal from these non monitored organisations. If you want tax breaks then your books need to be public.
But no specific charities that you'd like to identify as scams?
All charities have to report their finances to the Charities Regulator, who publishes all the details on their website. Where did you get the idea that 'most' don't publish where they spend their money?
€100k salary is very reasonable for organisations with hundreds, in some cases, thousands of staff and budgets of tens of millions. Where are you going to find people to take on that kind of responsibility for pittance money?
So again I ask, which ones are scams? If there's loads of scam charities, you'll have no difficulty naming say five of them, surely?
Look at the news over the last few years there’s a constant stream of charity irregularities.
So you were referring to historical scams, not scams at the present time?
There's a constant stream of private sector irregularities and indeed crypto irregularities in the news in recent years. Does that mean that they're all scams too?
I'm well aware of the small number of historical issues that have arisen in the charity sector, similar to the small number of historical issues that have occured in the private sector and the historical issues that have arisen in the crypto sector. If the recent issues in McVerry mean that “most charities are scams“ then the recent issues with MAC mean that most construction sector businesses are scams.
Funny how apparently everyone knows that most charities are scams but no one can give specific examples.
I'll leave it there, rather than dragging the thread further off topic.
