...I feel bad for him because he obviously believes his own bullshit, but he should have just said nothing rather than lie about what happened and pull the Mr. Magoo act.
It was actually in an adjacent paywalled article (https://www.wsj.com/livecoverage/stock-market-news-today-11-...). If anyone knows a way to bypass that paywall, I'd be curious to read the rest.
It may not be most ethical thing to do but if you want to read an article or two behind a paywall, I don't think it is insane to do.
This article though seems to be some kind of a live feed where there is not really a lot archived - maybe it works better for paying users viewing things live.
He is counting the 10 billion he loaned to himself and then lost as an asset for FTX that just happens to be illiquid right now. Yeah it's very illiquid lol
Also, does he not have lawyers or public relations?
It really shows how the media, these VCs, these paper billionaires, and their followers get caught up in hype storms that sort of self-perpetuate until they hit land.
What's even crazier is that both of his parents are law professors.
