Billionaires like SBF, CZ, Musk Are Not Our Friends And Never Will Be
(self.CryptoCurrency)

submitted 21 hours ago by OneThatNoseOneBronze

This should go without saying but it needs to be said. Billionaires
are not our friends. Somehow these people manage to amass cult
followings who hang on their every word almost like Gospel. Many of us
have come to crypto for financial freedom and uses where conventional
finance has failed us. Heck, even if you are just here for the profits
these people are still very bad source of advice and trust in them is
misplaced trust.

I could start with SBF who seems to be intent on acquiring every
single crypto company and absolutely crush the competition using what
seems to be(or used to be) his unlimited bank account for unlimited
buying power. He has also recently come out with some very
anti-decentralization statements. Speaking of decentralization we move
to CZ who has built up an image of being very pro-decentralization and
yet skirts around and avoids the entire issue when it's asked about
regarding BSC. On the Binance blog he claims that "decentralization is
a gradient scale" and refuses to describe Binance's chain as
centralized when only 19 validators are needed to alter or outright
freeze the chain completely as we saw recently. Further, any and all
validators are chosen by Binance themselves. Binance has also been
involved in many cases of either attempting skirt around or outright
just ignoring regulatory laws while at the same time CZ speaks warmly
about the benefits and positivity of regulations.

Elon Musk outright manipulates markets to his whim and fancy and seems
to find it a fun game that he partakes in gleefully as investors may
lose their life savings, futures and family funds. He talks a big game
about free speech but has started permanently suspending accounts that
"impersonate others", which are generally actually obvious account
parodies especially those done to him. He also plays a certain segment
of crypto "investors" like fiddles who pump the market and get dumped
on when he "doesn't follow through" on a tweet and heavily suggest
ideas he has no intention of implementing.

I don't think I need to mention the likes of Do Kwon, Alex Mashinsky
and John Karony as well as know their deviousness all too well. On
this particular note we should realise an important step in DYOR.
NEVER invest in any token or platform that has a single individual as
the face of the entire company, usually the founder or CEO as the face
of the company. All of these people are only here to feed their own
ego, and use the veneer of crypto "freedom" to attract those already
holding resentment toward traditional finance to gain their blind
trust. They are here for the cash and the attention. If nothing else,
find yourself a platform or product with a CEO/head whose keeps
his/her head down and puts in the work and doesn't have to tweet every
hour for validation.

This trickles further down into investment based on "endorsements"
from celebrities like Kim Kardashian, Floyd Mayweather and Tom Brady.
You can even include Matt Damon in this as while it was an
"above-board" paid ad, he was 100% using his name and influence to
promote crypto and should clearly know the risks and backlash that it
could bring but he seems to have blindly sold out for the money.

Recent market events have also shown that we give these people way too
much power. I saw a comment on the sub that said it's actually not a
bad thing if Cefi collapses, as Defi would take over. A very
interesting statement.

What traps? Sure I might use one of the platforms/services he offers
(Binance exchange) so every time I make a trade he gets a cut in fees.
Multiply these with being the biggest exchange in the planet and the
guy makes millions a day.

CZ is the frontman for a group of wealthy, shady Chinese investors.
The dude started investing in Bitcoin right around the same time I did
(when BTC was $10). He likely sold out at $3K and founded Binance with
the fund from Chinese investors and his. It may be smart since now he
could just print BNB to prop up his net worth whenever. For the
records, BNB was $3 just 3 years ago.

aspiration and belonging....(i.e. if I agree and cheer on Elon Musk,
then I'm "somehow someway part of his circle."). That's why building a
cult of personality is so enticing. Because once you have "followers",
they'll go through brick walls for you.

Look at all the dictators, nazis, fascists, generally bad dudes
throughout history. they all have amassed a strong following...whether
through charm or fear (generally it's a combination of both).

And as an extension of that, businesses for profit only offer a

are stacked against you, or in the long run in the bigger picture, the
house wins anyway.

On top of this, what they are doing is known as intra-elite competition.

It's fair game to them, and we're funding it- most of the time. What
they are doing is similar to what you see in a sports league. It
doesn't matter who stays on top, what matters is that they're in the
league, and we are not.

It's senseless to stay loyal to a CEX. Adjust. Always read and adjust.

They are your friend if you own stock. That's the point. They are by
extension the will and manifestation of the people who hold their
stock ownership. And at least in most modern nations this means
corporations are legal entities that can exist and perform activities
that live without a moral conscience. They exist for the sole benefit
of the stock holders, unless of course they are a non-profit, which
theoretically means they exist to pursue and accomplish the stated
charter of the nonprofit.

Yes, for profit companies are there to make money. If you own stock,
they are your friend, since they work to generate profits for you. If
you are not a shareholder, yes you'd be ill-informed to believe that
corporation would act in anything but their own self-interest.

Failing to see these basic facts of market and stock ownership is your
fault, not the corporations, not the market, not the governments, not
the regulatory departments. Yours.

I didn't say it was right. That is not the goal of the market system.
Morality isn't inherintly part of it's constituent parts. Corporations
are not morally founded They are instruments of market systems. That
is why they are only "friends" to their own shareholders. No one else.
If you heard anything else you need to reread what I said.

Well put; I'd like to add that absolute majority of 'retail investors'
are into crypto because of free money; in this context they're no
different than corporations who's intention is to maximize profits,
hence talking about morality or 'good vs bad' seems contradictory and
amusing at the same time.

Everyone's been brainwashed into believing that "Profit Maximization"
is the ultimate moral and existential holy grail. The biggest lie ever
perpetuated by capitalism. The appeal to greed is powerful. it is one
of the 7 deadly sins. That's why everything is purposedly framed in a
zero-sum game manner (us vs them).

If you ever want to have a small view in how different rich people
live, do grubhub/doordash in the rich part of town. Not the wealthy
suburb housing dual income doctors and engineers. Talking a bit more
out of the city where every lot is like 15k-20k sqft landscaped with
high walls and trees and high hedges surrounding it. Then realize
these aren't even the hundreds of millionaires to billionaires. You're
seeing a bunch of homes of geriatric millionaires - single digit to
low double digit millionaires - and their children and grandchildren
whom after inheritance splitting it may not even be a million each.
They still have physically close neighbors

Billionaires have compounds. They have to make efforts to even see
their neighbors let alone have conversation

One fact I like to remember is that if you earned a $1 million a year
income you'd probably think that was a lot... but it would still take
you 100,000-200,000 years to be able to match guys like Bezos, Musk,
or Gates. To further put that in perspective, Mesopotamia, known as
one of earliest human civilizations to ever arise, was "only" 6,000
years ago.

Speaking as an ex-Musk fan boy.... Space-x and Tesla were doing really
cool things that nobody had done at the time.

Starting right around the "pedo guy" comment a few years ago is when
Musk started to lose his shine for me. Then over the years I gradually
thought less and less of him until finally I'm fully on board with the
Musk hate.

A shame cause I really like Space-X. But you have to realize the
accomplishments of Space-X aren't really because of Musk intelligence
or work drive or anything like that. It's from brilliant engineers
gladly taking a narcissists money and using that to drive innovation.

I actually worked at spaceX 2017-2019. Nothing noteworthy, a closeout
technician, fancy words for “tank cleaner”. We basically cleaned out
both the liquid oxygen and fuel side of the 2nd stage of the f9’s. And
installed the internal components.

Anyway, it was a horrible work/life experience. When I joined we were
working 12-16 shifts and alternating weekends. Eventually things
cooled down and it wasn’t as demanding but that was after we had a
huge layoff a little before I left. The leadership sucks and they
don’t last long because of the demanding workload. The silver lining
was the free iced coffee.

Edit: Elon did show up a few times. I maybe saw him walk through twice
with this woman that looked like a twitch streamer cosplaying a goth
schoolgirl.

Would those brilliant engineers have spontaneously assembled to create
SpaceX without him? Probably not.

He obviously contributes something other than just money. Remember
that SpaceX nearly went bankrupt.

I do admire his achievements as an entrepreneur. That doesn't mean I
need to like him as a person though.

Agreed. The US in particular has a sort of "celebrity worship" culture
that I don't understand. And it's not a new thing, it's been around
waaay before social media. It's what fuels the entertainment channels
and magazine sales at the check out stand.

People put their favorite movie stars, pro athletes, musicians, and
rich people in general on a pedestal. These people shouldn't have any
significant influence over the population for any topic that isn't
related to how they became rich/famous. But for some reason they do.

If a basketball player endorses an athletic shoe that at least makes
some sense. They probably have a good idea of what makes a good sports
shoe. But if a Basketball player endorses a car? No one should give a
shit. The person on the commercial is not an expert in what makes a
good car. But people fall into this marketing hook line and sinker
anyway.

And that's how we end up with Tom Brady, Lebron James, and Matt Damon
shilling for crypto companies.

In the case of the ultra-wealthy types like Elon Musk, Warren Buffet,
etc. People should only pay attention to their advice that is related
to what made them wealthy.

No one should give a shit about what Musk has to say about free
speech, politics, social media policy, cryptocurrency, etc. The guy is
famous for start-up technology companies, anything he has to say
outside of the topic of business/technology shouldn't be taken any
more seriously than asking your neighbor.

The US is simply more materialistic culture where people always want
the newest car and newest phone. Worshipping people who create,
advertise, or can at least afford all the newest material stuff is the
consequence of it.

Another new trend from there - bunch of fake motivational gurus and
fake businessmen running from one podcast to another making smart
faces while talking platitudes and giving terrible advice.

It’s the belief that prosperity is always earned and therefore Elon
must be extremely smart and deserving to get where he is. It ignores
the fact that Musk and most of his peers started on third base and
think they hit a homer, and that a lot of success in business is down
to luck or timing or really just about who you know.

I would argue he did it because SBF is lobbying for stupid crypto
regulations that would serve to benefit only SBF and co. At least
that's the move I would make if I were in CZs position as he's holding
tokens of a project that conflicts with his core values. I'm not
convinced any billionaire has the evil intent implied by OP but rather
are obsessed with the game of business and are detached from the
reality of the people behind the money they acquire. Friend or foe
doesn't really matter. A few billionaires throwing a few hundred mill
around contributes a few hundred mill more to a market cap than if
they weren't around at all. They also have the power to convince the
whole world that CBDCs are the way to go and that crypto is just tech
for criminals like all the other billionaires think. So to that extent
they most definitely are our friends and if we're so concerned about
day to day volatility then government bonds are the play.

I know they are not my friends. And I don't expect them to be my
friends. But in the case of Musk: I like Tesla and Tesla has increased
the speed of electrical car adoption. I like Starlink. I like rockets
that go up and LAND again. That's futuristic for me.

And if Musk gets Starship together, Humankind will - just like that -
enter a new phase of space exploration. I can't hate Musk for that.
The behemoth NASA doesn't get any of that done.

As for CZ. I have money on his exchange, I'm staking there. He keeps
his exchange strong. He makes BNB be relevant. For me, seeking for
financial freedom, that's attractive.

Sure monopoly is bad and yada yada, but RIGHT now my money is
relatively safe. It's not on some exchange that can collapse over the
weekend. And for that - again - I can't hate CZ.

Actually, they're doing what I want them to do.

Smart Chain, Cronos, KCC.
    Don't use centralized exchanges that promote their own minted
tokens for trading discount e.g. Binance, FTX, KuCoin.
    Don't trust millionaires and billionaires that are posting often
on social media; they have an agenda as shown with the FTT and Solana

If they don't provide utility, it means you're benefiting from the next guys.

Think of some music streaming service where millions are happy to pay
to listen to songs, and if you invest in such a service, you're
profiting from revenues generated from the utility. On the other hand,
if you're profiting from the tweets of billionaires, you're just
gambling which is never sustainable.

As much as I hate to say it, coinbase seems to have proven itself as
being a very top Exchange, while yes the fees are ridiculously high,
and their spread on prices are rough, it’s a US, publicly traded,
regulated, company that, other than the recent poly incident that even
effected me, has stayed the most consistent and least controversial.

Coin base not having their own coin is honestly being shown to be the
best method for an exchange. Granted this isn’t to say coinbase is the
best, or that it doesn’t have major flaws, but it seems to be the
least controversial.

If only they don’t have half ass customer support

A lot of jealousy in this sub. We are involved with finances and
you’re shitting on the most successful people in this field. You can
live however you want but don’t preach out of jealousy and misguided
hate it’s not a good look.

Duh .. MuskRats didn’t learn from when he crashed crypto last year
with his Doge coin SNL bullshit, him buying Bitcoin for Tesla and
dumping when convenient, him tweeting to pump and dump suckers

Musk has done an incredible job in helping human civilization move
forward, with SpaceX and Tesla. I don't want him - or any one for that
matter - to own the financial system, and that's why I support
Ethereum/decentralized-finance, but I do support his efforts in those
fields which are currently not amenable to decentralization, like
rocket launches to space and battery electric vehicle manufacturing.

As for your pop-critique of Musk which is mostly regurgitated from
anti-Musk tweets by diehard Democrats - who are targeting Musk only
because he's not onboard with the Democrat's censorship regime - let's
parse it:

    Elon Musk outright manipulates markets to his whim and fancy and
seems to find it a fun game that he partakes in gleefully as investors
may lose their life savings, futures and family funds.

Musk exercises his right to Free Speech, by commenting on things. If
idiots decide to invest based on jokes he tweets about Doge, that's on
them, not Musk. Musk has no legal or moral obligation to self-censor,
because what he does by tweeting is not "manipulate markets".

    He talks a big game about free speech but has started permanently
suspending accounts that "impersonate others", which are generally
actually obvious account parodies especially those done to him.

When those accounts are using the exact same tactic that scammers use
to deceive people, which is to copy the display name and profile
picture of a famous person's account, then it's no longer just parody,
it's deception, and fair game for banning.

    He also plays a certain segment of crypto "investors" like fiddles
who pump the market and get dumped on when he "doesn't follow through"
on a tweet and heavily suggest ideas he has no intention of
implementing.

See point one: he has a right to free speech. Casual musings are not
indications he intends to do anything, and any one who perceives it
otherwise only has themselves to blame.

I think people conflate themselves as “pre-billionaires” where they
idolize behavior like this because they think it will make them
successful.

News flash: it doesn’t. It just makes you a petty dick without
billions of dollars. You’re never gonna be Uber rich, so start
enjoying the littler things in life and learn to live happily within
your financial realm.

Um sorry to say the same investors that backed the web2 assholes have
centralized the web3 investment deal flow and all the data to source
and pump their founders companies.

And now here comes Blackrock!!!

Lol

these web2 LPs and Investors only invest in people just like them.

It’s what makes this market a real danger to the economy.

How is Andreessen going to invest in an “anti-Zuck”? They love themselves.

They only back founders that reflect themselves back to them.

Exceptions in mind most are controlled too man if they actually rose
from lower classes over time. Its why I prefer to get high multi
millions at most because you still get to do what ya want. Not so at
those levels and higher.

They will also be the first, again exceptions in mind as always, to
see the effects of all this tech like CBDCs in action. They have their
own unique situation.

Everyone needs to find ERGO or projects that instill the same
transparency and values,. ERGO is truly decentralized, Fair launch,
and working toward defi solutions that are for users, Not the VC’s and

SBF is no longer a billionaire. You should fix the title.

It’s easier to go from billionaire to millionaire in crypto than anything else.
