Maybe in the crypto sense but what about the legal sense? Are there regulations in this area? I know regulations are light in the crypto world so it's a genuine question.

Like my bank has my money as well. If possession is all that matters then they would own it too. But luckily there are laws that say that they don't and a bank CEO that withdraws customer funds before a bank collapse is going straight to prison.




It only matters if laws are enforced. Notice SBF's parents, despite all the involvement with FTX, are still running free.


Are they going to keep running free though? https://www.nytimes.com/2023/09/19/business/ftx-sam-bankman-...


nah. they're definitely under a microscope and may be nailed before too long.

courts move slow. how long did it take to see Elizabeth Holmes get convicted?
