      Of course.

      Basically, Sam Bankman fried and this CEO of binance got into an public ego match on twitter.

      As Sam was the owner of FTX, and Binance was the Chinese version of that.

      he tweeted:

      It seems $15m not only changed @kevinolearytv’s mind about crypto, it also made him align with a fraudster. Is he seriously defending SBF?

      Which one domino crashed into another. FTX was found to be playing with clients funds and insolvent, and binance was turned inside out in the same process. Sam ended up with a 105 year sentence, and the Binance CEO is here.
