    1. Vitallik exhibits autistic behavior. He is likely autistic and in the ASD spectrum. He should use his immense wealth to help autistic people. Set up a foundation to assist ASD people like him who are not as wealthy and as successful as him.

    2. Crypto is crypto, you cant combine crypto with profit driven quaterly investor $$$ . Get F up institutional investor, this is not your playground. Whatever happens to Temasek this year, thats what I feel on 2018 crypto crash. Lesson learnt. Money flow into crypto should be incremental. All these instituional flock into crypto messed this industry even more. Be like XRP. Relax and chill, Be like Ethereum, Relax and chill focus on slow and steady growth for the future. Remember this bois, If you invest in ethereum or any crypto, you still have the digital asset except the price will fluctuate alot. thats all.

      1 bitcoin bought in 2018 still the same bitcoin on 2022. Best part, the transaction all recorded in the blockchain for everyone to see. Do not care about the price because the price will never makes sense.

    3. This is the next nutcase after Bankman …crypto is a ponzi scheme if you still not learnt you will have a bad fall

    4. Not much about Ftx and sbf. I do wonder though why temasek invested over $200mil in FTX given that their financial statements were not up to scratch

    5. Amazing. Need a kid to school you in 101 of any financial commodity that aims to make quick big bucks. Play with fire prepare to get burn.

    6. oh..$275 million Sing Dollars invested in FTX by Temasak ! Virtual coins are gimmicks. You are playing musical chair. They always say the exchange got hacked. How many years already always money disappears into thin air. and Suddenly a lot of Cryto business popped up. Gov should have a special classification for such businesses. These businesses need close scrutiny. Too many foreigners using virtual currencies. There is no doubt money laundering is taking place , considering terrible conditions in CHina is forcing many richers to flee to Singapore. Many govs do not want to control virtual currencies , because all have their hands in the pie. Lee was at G20 say need some control..so because $275 million virtually lost ! 🤪

    7. Stay away from crypto. Trade forex instead at least it is backed by country's Central Bank. Crypto can go to ZERO. Currency will never go to Zero no matter what.

    8. PAP abit too gullible to be dealing with crypto, that’s why they got rugpulled, fooling Singaporeans is ezmode, they got served by their betters. All these boomers think they know better.
