The problem with claiming SBF doesn't know the difference between solvency and liquidity, then how come he's figured out which one he needs to claim for his legal defence. If he doesn't know the difference, he wouldn't be so deliberate about claiming one happened not the other.

Turtles all the way down. Or in this case, stupidity. He knows one is a thing bad people do and the other isn't. He believes he is not a bad person. Not-bad people don't do bad things. So obviously he couldn't have done the bad thing, because he's not a bad person.

Maybe he's smart enough to listen to his lawyers. Or maybe he knows the difference. He still seems to be a criminal fraudster and crook, the other questions are secondery concerns mostly driven by curiosity.

We'll have to wait for any verdicts and court rulings so to onow what exactly went down, this thing is far from having reaching the end of the beginning.

I doubt that his lawyers would be happy with him making public statements about his business dealings right now.
