Likely only person here who singularly started an info web site in 1995 and ran it straight through for 18+ years, increasing traffic and content each month. Also...made a profit every year from Day One. Many careers - all working for myself.
Cory, NJ Guy here...didn't you vote for something which has to do with Crypto?
Crypto should be as illegal as terrorism....400,000 slaves are currently taking 1 Trillion a year from folks...in US, it's 8X all robberies and burglaries put together.
Have the Dems declared a National Emergency?

Dick, the very basics. US Crypt Scams are already 8X the total amount of ALL robberies and burglaries in the USA..including all Bank Robberies, etc.
Imagine that! It's a true national emergency yet Government has largely declared "Hands off". white collar crime.

This is water over the dam already - and it's so big that most folks can't wrap their minds around it. The US Government has declared open season on our elders, the weak (in mind), etc - just the Cryptoscam part is approaching 30 BILLION dollars per year.

Could you repeat that in plain english? Only the words "nobody" and "is" are understandable.
Are you suggesting that the DOJ did NOT do away with the teams that investigated crytoscams as well as other white collar crimes - and said, out loud, they are taking focus off this?

Found a great new ride for my New England area - cost me 1/2 to 1/3rd of new and is in perfect shape.
Looking forward to cruising the bike paths and the hill and mountain roads.

The Magnitude of innocent Americans (scams) being taken using Crypto is much more (4 to 6X more) than ALL bank robberies, house robberies and burglaries put together!
That's quite an accomplishment considering how much less crypto there is!

I took a minute to look up best sellers....not sure which are Men, but we surely can't say they dominate the list(s).
What I think we need is more female and minority historians and so on.....

30 Billion this year and we'll constantly get stories - ALL of them likely not adding up to even a few percent of just the INCREASE over last year. We already are dealing with an 15X increase over 2018-2019.

The new breed of scammers are real professionals. These are not your Nigerian Princes on Craigslist.
They know how to take advantage of every single human weakness and are willing to spend a year or more on a single scam.
Reading some of these - is so strange. Elders are addicted.

Uh, the amounts of crypto back then, let alone all the tools for easier scammer, were a tiny fraction of what they are today - perhaps 1 or 2% of the scamming was going on then.
So, sure.....no one would understand it since it wasn't happening. Look at today, tho!

Look at the size of Cryto-scams in relation to all other robberies and burglaries. I think the matter of scale is relevant.

Propoganda for 15 years - meanwhile, it only really started (the major scamming) in 2018 and it is up 1000% since. It would hard to crypto scam when BTC was low in value! Now it involved human trafficking and slavery of thousands.
We see people regularly losing life savings. Is that fake? No!
