For this article I decided to do something different, reflecting on the past year and making two lists: the winners and the losers of 2023.
Let’s start with the ones who hoped for a better year.
2023 Losers
1. SBF
The inclusion of SBF here probably represents a bigger category, the smartasses who think they can just cheat their way up and cover up their sins with bribes and stacks of money. Well, SBF now is a first-person example that this is not always the case.
The previous bear market cycle has shown those who were bathing without a suit, with the most classic revolving door becoming between crypto firms and jails.
The US is trying to prove that anyone making their way up by cheating will be eventually brought to justice.
Nonetheless, SBF is also a testament to the issues plaguing our system, where media and governmental protection can be bought, and everyone can turn a blind eye if they pay enough to cover them.
As mentioned above the SBF category honestly includes any other scammer out there, who was acting all cool…
