FULL TRANSCRIPT

0:00

you cannot make this stuff up look at

0:03

this tweet that I sent yesterday I wrote

0:04

you have got to be effing kidding me

0:06

this by the way is like 14 000 likes

0:08

like thank you for liking and retweeting

0:10

this uh I'm at realme Kevin on Twitter

0:12

but look at this you've got to be effing

0:13

kidding me audits for FTX were performed

0:17

by the quote first ever CPA firm in the

0:21

metaverse it wasn't even that hard to

0:23

figure out look at this who audited FTX

0:25

Prager metis CPA was one of those who

0:28

performed audits on FTX and ftx.com in

0:30

the United States for fiscal 2021 you

0:33

just Google Prada Prager mattress Prager

0:36

mattress first ever CPA firm in the

0:39

metaverse you literally can't make this

0:42

stuff up and then I write the CPA firm

0:44

probably also had no incentive to

0:46

actually care because there's no

0:48

regulator supervising these audits fat

0:51

paycheck from FTX and clout and no

0:54

regulator easy to look away oh my gosh

0:58

so what's happening now let's let's talk

1:00

well folks it's happening not only is

1:03

FTX going bankrupt but now the leftover

1:05

money is being hacked and stolen away in

1:08

this video I want to talk about how that

1:11

could be happening okay so let's first

1:14

do a very quick recap we know that

1:16

binance suggests that they were going to

1:18

dump the finance token last weekend ftt

1:22

because of some abnormalities they were

1:24

seeing then FTX and their FTX token

1:27

plummeted in value and because FTX was

1:32

letting individuals borrow using the ftt

1:35

token as collateral you had this death

1:38

spiral of margin calls of customers who

1:42

were getting margin called because the

1:43

ftt token was plummeting and the more

1:45

people were getting margin calls the

1:47

lower the crypto Market was going and

1:49

the more the ftt token was dropped even

1:51

lower and so the more you had a death

1:53

spiral of one dropping lower leading to

1:55

margin calls here but then the

1:57

collateral dropping in value leading to

1:59

more marginal calls over here everything

2:01

just a complete disaster and that led to

2:05

a bank run on FTX where individuals were

2:10

possibly in the normal course of

2:11

business trying to withdraw their money

2:12

we're getting delayed on their

2:14

withdrawals and then all of a sudden

2:15

ftx.com

2:17

seized up with withdrawals now when this

2:21

occurred I made videos and I posted

2:23

tweets like crazy saying get out of FTX

2:28

us I used to be sponsored by FTX us

2:32

which is different from ftx.com but

2:35

those companies have common ownership so

2:37

we can't kid ourselves you are going to

2:40

see the same freeze-ups as at ftx.com at

2:44

ftxus and folks after five days of me

2:48

warning get out

2:50

FTX us filed for bankruptcy late on

2:54

Friday with the Bahamas seizing whatever

2:57

assets they can because this company is

3:00

based out of the Bahamas rumors

3:02

circulating that Sam bankman freed

3:04

either has an arrest warrant out for him

3:06

or that he's been arrested at an airport

3:08

these are unconfirmed rumors at this

3:11

point but there are rumors that are

3:12

circulating the SEC is investigating for

3:15

fraud Janet Yellen Janet Yellen is

3:18

talking about how this is why we need

3:19

regulation for cryptocurrencies uh

3:22

people are trending on Twitter fire Gary

3:24

Gensler for failing to regulate sooner

3:27

for taking too long to actually make

3:29

sure people were safe at these companies

3:31

and I feel terrible about it too and I

3:34

am completely sorry for not realizing

3:36

the failure that these companies would

3:38

go under I've always thought the stable

3:40

coin yields were pretty wild and I've

3:42

warned against those but I thought boy

3:44

don't invest then in the stable coin

3:46

invest in the seller of the pickaxes

3:48

right and rather than selling trying to

3:51

go find gold just invest in the pickaxe

3:53

seller yeah well the pickaxella went

3:55

bankrupt real bad and it sucks I lost a

3:58

lot of money I had invested in companies

4:00

like this that I sponsored was sponsored

4:02

by as well and I lost way more money

4:04

with my investment in those companies

4:05

and I ever got paid in sponsorships I

4:07

specifically for example in Block if I

4:09

invested four hundred twenty thousand

4:10

dollars

4:11

that's all gone

4:13

yeah anyway so what's happening now with

4:16

these hacks and how are they getting

4:18

away with this and for those of

4:21

individuals who are wondering does me

4:24

saying I lost money and being sorry

4:26

about having lost money somehow make up

4:28

for having pitched these companies no

4:29

and I'm sorry for that that doesn't

4:31

cover that failure I just want to make

4:32

that very clear I don't think anybody

4:34

saw this coming but I'm sure some people

4:37

did because well there were some people

4:39

who are just really anti-other crypto

4:40

exchanges so there's some competitive

4:42

Advantage but boy oh boy this is turned

4:44

into a disaster so how is this hack now

4:47

breaking down well let's take a look at

4:49

how this could happen because right now

4:51

we've got about

4:52

662 million dollars that potentially has

4:55

been hacked out of FTX there are some

4:58

estimates that that's uh 475 million a

5:01

different firm that's tracking uh

5:02

analytics on chain analytics is seeing

5:05

this but how can companies get away with

5:09

stealing this sort of money and then

5:11

Vanishing I mean isn't the bad benefit

5:13

of blockchain technology that you have

5:16

transparency well yes and no see

5:20

blockchain technology enables

5:23

transparent transacting but what it

5:26

doesn't enable is knowing exactly whom

5:30

is conducting those transactions and

5:33

that's the problem see you could for

5:35

example if you were an employee at FTX

5:37

or maybe you're Sam bankman freed who's

5:40

you know in the past allegedly uh based

5:42

on other rumors co-mingled funds between

5:45

FTX and Alameda his his investing

5:48

company just so you know quickly how

5:50

that would work and then I'll show you

5:51

how these potential hacks could work FTX

5:54

could potentially lend Alameda which is

5:58

Sam beckman's freed investment fund

6:00

money and so you you give a loan so

6:03

basically Alameda says okay I owe you

6:06

money back and we're taking the loan

6:09

over here this is very commonly done

6:12

between business says all the time but

6:14

when it becomes questionable is when you

6:16

have common ownership and what are the

6:19

terms of that loan what if Alameda

6:21

doesn't pay it back what if Alameda

6:23

takes a billion dollar loan from FTX

6:26

reserves then Alameda goes bankrupt now

6:30

all of a sudden there aren't enough

6:31

reserves so that IOU is worthless and

6:35

then when there's a bank run on FTX FTX

6:37

goes bankrupt after alameda's already

6:39

gone bankrupt well that could be exactly

6:41

what's happened and this is actually

6:43

just like really really poor management

6:45

and borderline unethical actually I

6:49

would just straight up call uh you know

6:51

call a duck a duck right uh it's

6:54

unethical and fraud so it's it's really

6:57

really bad especially since you're using

7:00

customer funds potentially to do this

7:01

sort of stuff now we're still waiting to

7:03

get more information on exactly all the

7:04

things and how they're breaking down but

7:06

this is what it looks like so how do you

7:08

in the transparent ecosystem of

7:10

blockchain Technology still real money

7:13

if if all transactions are so

7:16

transparent well let's say you're an

7:18

employee at FTX so you're over here at

7:21

FTX and you're like wow we're going

7:24

bankrupt okay we have the FTX wallet

7:27

nobody knows who actually has control

7:30

the private keys for those wallets

7:32

because for crypto for cryptography you

7:34

need a private key to to essentially

7:36

unlock a wallet to be able to transact

7:39

with that wallet so you can decode the

7:41

hash

7:42

the cryptography could be a topic for a

7:44

totally different video but anyway with

7:46

the private key which this is why we

7:48

have public transactions we could see

7:50

all this without anybody actually having

7:52

your private key with the private key

7:54

you can do whatever you want with the

7:55

wallet so let's say FTX over here has

7:58

662 million dollars in in cash left now

8:02

they technically owe people potentially

8:04

six to eight billion dollars and the

8:08

employees who are left at FTX and I'm

8:10

not trying to slander or shade them they

8:12

could be somebody else okay maybe maybe

8:13

somebody broke into FTX maybe this is

8:15

somebody you know in the Bahamas or

8:17

somebody who flew to the Bahamas and was

8:19

like I'm gonna go steal that stuff and

8:21

so they find the private key taped to

8:22

the bottom of a desk whoever it is

8:24

doesn't really matter we probably will

8:25

never know how can they get this money

8:27

out of here so they might say okay well

8:29

FTX is bankrupt because we're not going

8:31

to pay six to eight billion dollars and

8:33

nobody wants to bail us out sure there

8:34

are companies like Tron that are like oh

8:36

yeah we're talking about maybe a

8:37

multi-billion dollar bailout but it's

8:38

all subject to to to due diligence and

8:41

really I think some sometimes when you

8:43

get these talks about oh yeah tron's

8:44

going to come in and bail out FTX I

8:46

really think what sometimes these CEOs

8:47

like even the binance CEO whom I think

8:49

is kind of a shady character you can

8:51

watch my video on why I think that uh

8:52

just type in meet Kevin binance and it's

8:54

one of my videos from last week but yeah

8:56

there's like a whole 15-minute

8:58

explanation about why I think he's Shady

8:59

so if you're like new cheesy is the good

9:01

one he's one of the ogs if if you think

9:04

that then at least at least get my

9:06

perspective in that video but anyway

9:09

so so uh you know why would companies

9:11

temporarily maybe want to prop these

9:13

things up by saying oh yeah we'll we'll

9:14

just uh we'll buy them subject to due

9:16

diligence well you provide temporary

9:17

stability in the market and maybe as you

9:20

provide that temporary stability in the

9:21

market you're secretly like dumping

9:23

certain crypto you're secretly trying to

9:26

elevate your reserves and then you're

9:28

like yeah just kidding I don't actually

9:30

want you it's giving you it spot you a

9:32

little bit more time so I when I hear

9:34

companies like Tron saying they're going

9:35

to buy FTX I think FTX is so far

9:37

underwater they would be moronic to do

9:39

so just like I think it would be moronic

9:41

of binance to do so and then they did

9:42

end up indeed pulling out uh so I just

9:44

want you to be aware of that like you

9:47

can you can join joink there's a new

9:49

word uh this market and really screw

9:51

with people but anyway so let's say

9:52

you've got the 662 million dollars

9:54

sitting in in you know the crypto wallet

9:55

for FTX and you're like well crap the

9:58

bank company's going bankrupt anyway

9:59

you're a bad person you're like you know

10:01

I'm just gonna steal this and live a

10:02

great life and I'll share it with like

10:04

one other employee or something like

10:05

that right well we're gonna go live in

10:07

in the Cayman Islands let's go from

10:08

Bahamas that okay mng tough life anyway

10:10

so you take the 62 million dollars and

10:13

what you do is you put it into the

10:16

Vortex of usually an erc20 or the

10:20

ethereum network and uh there used to be

10:23

this thing called a tornado cache but uh

10:25

which but tornado cash got shut down but

10:28

there are so many alternatives to

10:29

tornado cash I'll give you a brief

10:30

explanation but just an example there's

10:32

uni join uh there's coinomize Min BTC ZK

10:38

money zero X Monero Cyclone protocol

10:42

mr87 spinner they're all basically

10:46

tornado cash Alternatives now tornado

10:48

cash got like globally shut down because

10:50

it was just totally money laundering and

10:52

everything and all of these other

10:53

features are probably doing that as well

10:54

and you shouldn't use these because

10:56

these are probably going to get you in a

10:57

lot of trouble but if you're a criminal

10:59

what could you do so what you do is you

11:02

take your 662 million dollars and you

11:04

dump it into tornado cash or these other

11:08

platforms when you dump it into this

11:10

what you have is a giant Vortex of

11:13

thousands to potentially millions of

11:15

transactions going in so you'll see okay

11:18

a 662 million dollar transaction is

11:21

going into this tornado but then on the

11:23

other side what you'll find is you'll

11:25

find maybe if one million transactions

11:28

came in maybe you'll find 20 million

11:31

transactions coming out and the 20

11:34

million transactions coming out here

11:35

we'll use we'll use a small blue pen to

11:37

signify coming out the 20 million

11:39

transactions coming out are all 1 000 or

11:43

let's just call it because ethereum is

11:45

almost a thousand dollars let's call it

11:47

one eth transactions and some of these

11:51

are legitimate some of them are bad but

11:54

what you do is you basically take money

11:56

out of the tornado in little one

11:59

ethereum increments so what you do is

12:02

you just repeat this withdrawal process

12:05

662

12:07

000 times and all of a sudden one

12:10

ethereum is coming out 662 000 times but

12:13

it's not just that it's combined with

12:14

all the other single ethereum

12:17

withdrawals people are taking out so you

12:19

could be taking out 662 a thousand

12:22

transactions of one ethereum which think

12:24

about it every time you do a transaction

12:25

it's like getting one ethereum like a

12:27

thousand bucks I mean worth the time you

12:29

could sit there all day long and do that

12:31

right and you spread that out into like

12:34

maybe 200 different wallets of yours so

12:36

you go into that platform you're like

12:38

hey you know what take uh uh 10 ethereum

12:42

transactions at one ethereum each put

12:43

them into this wallet put 10 into this

12:45

10 into this 10 into this and you have

12:46

control of all of those little micro

12:48

wallets there's no way anybody's ever

12:50

going to be able to track down where

12:52

that 662 million went because it's all

12:55

coming out as one ethereum transactions

12:57

and your goal is to just use the most

13:00

popular one that exists so there are

13:02

instead of just 662 000 one ethereum

13:05

transactions coming out there are maybe

13:07

a hundred million transactions coming

13:10

out with one eth people doing this over

13:12

and over and over and over again and so

13:14

now you've effectively taken one wallet

13:18

with a lot of money and potentially

13:20

turned it into hundreds uh if not you

13:23

know hundreds of thousands of wallets

13:24

that you'd have to track down and

13:27

somehow connect a bad actor to that's

13:30

really really difficult now you might be

13:32

wondering well how do you know how many

13:35

times you could go to that tornado and

13:37

take a thousand out well when you put

13:39

money in you basically get little coupon

13:41

codes like the sixty percent off coupon

13:43

code linked down below for the programs

13:45

on actually building your wealth with

13:47

zero to millionaire real estate

13:48

investing that's gonna be huge for 2023

13:49

new lectures coming out soon Sierra you

13:52

know stocks and psychology money new

13:53

lectures coming out in December for that

13:54

on fundamental analysis we're going

13:56

really deep baby uh and the new course

13:58

the elite Hustlers University course

14:00

these are Great Courses check them out

14:02

down below uh that expires obviously the

14:04

Black Friday coupon code so expiring

14:05

soon but uh you know you basically you

14:08

deposit your money and for every

14:11

transaction you deposit you get some

14:12

form of coupon that you then use to

14:16

redeem a certain amount of ethereum from

14:18

the tornado so let's say you get 662 000

14:22

coupons and then you go stand at the

14:24

other side of the tornado and you're

14:25

like cool I'm going to redeem 10 here

14:27

send it to that wallet okay I'm going to

14:28

redeem 10 here send it to that wallet

14:30

okay I'm gonna redeem a thousand here

14:31

send it to that wallet all that money

14:34

disappears and that money could be your

14:39

deposited money in either FTX us or

14:43

ftx.com it's terrible it's so bad it's

14:47

it's so absolutely bad that this money

14:49

can get stolen and the person who steals

14:51

it or people who steal it might never

14:53

end up getting discovered so again even

14:56

though blockchain's transparent it's not

14:59

transparent enough for us to actually

15:01

know who's doing bad stuff we just know

15:04

that somebody is doing bad stuff and

15:08

this whole idea that oh but you know

15:11

they've got licenses to sell crypto in

15:13

the United States the whole licensing

15:15

process for crypto doesn't mean they're

15:17

actually heavily regulated they're

15:19

barely regulated and as I said at the

15:22

beginning of the video

15:23

they were audited by a metaverse CPA

15:26

firm you can't make this stuff up
