    Agree. The irony of crypto is that its attraction is largely attributable to the fact it is beyond the oversight or control of any government. Ironically it's that lack of governmental oversight that also make it susceptible to fraud and manipulation to a much larger extent than any other type of "investment".

    looks like the stairs are out to get him. if the story is true and he crapped himself when he fell, I doubt he is long for this world

    Vladimir Putin 'fell down stairs at home and soiled himself' - LBC

    Russian leader Vladimir Putin fell down the stairs at his official residence and soiled himself, according to claims made on a Telegram channel with purported links to his inner circle.

    Putin, 70, suffered the fall at home on Wednesday evening, the Telegram channel SVR claimed.

    He suffered a bruised coccyx after falling down five steps, rolled on to his side and then down a further two steps.

    The channel claimed he soiled himself due to the sharp impact and claims he is suffering gastrointestinal cancer, with no concrete evidence to support the claim.

    “Nothing critical [was diagnosed], the president’s condition closer to nighttime was stable, he can get around on his own, with pain in the coccyx area while sitting being the only thing that bothers him.”

    I'm sure his judo experience was helpful in avoiding a head injury.

    I learned years ago, skiing, that getting the shat knocked out of you is a thing.

    I’ll give you same answer I would give if this was July 1944, we had intelligence that there was a plot to kill Hitler, and someone said, “Gosh, we don’t know for certain that whoever succeeds Hitler won’t be worse”:

    I am willing to risk it.
