I am in favor of what was done here. But also, we need to understand how it was accomplished.

Will the same happen in FTX or tons of Web3 and Crypto scams where the common person lost their money ?

I doubt it.

Yes, the US judicial system has repeatedly demonstrated that it requires victimising the mega rich. The reason FTX is in deep water is because they scammed the mega rich, they happened to also scam "the common person", but they're under house arrest atm and likely heading to prison because they impacted the rich.

The fraud charges aren't being driven by losing their client's funds, it's due to them lying to the people and companies that were investing.

Are you not aware that the government is prosecuting the founders of FTX, with multiple execs taking plea deals?

Let us see when he is convicted and if he gets off with a light sentence or not.

The establishment's voice NYT has already tried to whitewash his 'crimes' https://www.nasdaq.com/articles/lets-talk-about-the-new-york...

He is trying to get rid of criminal charges https://www.ft.com/content/bbb43340-2ecb-43e7-8c4e-b563ec921...

He has donated to both parties. We will find out the ROI on those donations soon.

She got off light compared to what the amount she scammed investors out of. Do a quick search and you'll find crypto scammers getting more years per $ scammed than she did.
