> SBF and his girlfriend Caroline Ellison were also both traders at Jane Street after graduating. Being hired as a trader at Jane Street is no easy feat and more impressive than attending MIT/Stanford I would say.
I guess I have to quote myself here, and re-emphasize that they are all part of the same group of insiders:
>>Can we finally admit the biggest scammers in this space are those from Ivy League, and connections with SV insiders traditional VC/Banking/Finance without out a clue of what they are doing or how this tech actually works
I worked at a megacorp pushing 'blockchian not bitcoin' BS and it was only because they realized they couldn't co-op it and instead ran with alts that ended up getting investigated by the SEC.
Let me makes this very clear: I've been on both sides of this equation and I can assure you even though we didn't have much if any money on the BTC side until very recently (most traditional and VC money went to these insiders) those of us that built companies had to knew how this tech worked and often had to built the infrastructure from the ground up.
I personally couldn't even code until I got into BTC despite having several opportunities to do so, because this space demands that you do since it moves so fast and the pace of innovation requires you to know how it all works otherwise you get left behind. And because of this it becomes very clear who knows what they're talking about and who doesn't when you start to hear the merits of a 'private blockchain' and realize what they're describing is essentially just a SQL database with different branding but totally not that bitcoin thing or why the Byzantine General's problem was thought to be unsolvable by Computer Science prior to Bitcoin, let alone how the mempool works or what a UTXO is.
