Cryptonauts, WE LOVE YOU!! & y'all are all well worthy of that love!!! Lookit y'all, meeting up here to create the future on the next generational Pub0x!! Bravely facing off against the crushing weight of the total authority of the people who print fiat to give first and foremost to their cronies!! We only want what's best for the human race!! & lord knows the Cantillon positioned paper hanging kleptocratic behavior of the central banks has proven to NOT be in the best interests of the good of the people!!
Jet lag is like a really bad drug & worse still to be doing it with every passing year. Flying west used to not hit as hard, it was like you stayed up late partying and the whole world stayed up with you. Now it's just nasty. Gives us our reading music tho, good ol Young the GiantTLDL: Listen!! My body just says no! But we don't listen!! we won't quit!! Cuz we just want to go!!! We want MOAR!!!!
OK, what crypto news from the tradfi giant of the salmon lady today dear readers?? Hard to say, cuz the FT's servers are running slow as dogs tonight. It's not us, we got three figure internet and are running a VPN to lil britain. While forcibly paused, let us denigrate the new FT interface. Not only slow, but counter intuitive - example, the "editions" button on the left has a totally different meaning from the "editions" button on the right!!! ar ar ar !! in the fine tradition of loser Brit software!!!
Three guesses if ya need em!! oh ok, the answer is spin, agitprop, and the regular increasingly desperate anti-crypto narrative ALWAYS pushed by the FT. Example, - NO new crypto stories online. One bit of Orwellian doublespeak, viz:
TLDR: we are not kidding about the slow servers. This story tries desperately to link BNB and FTX. Otherwise a catfood puke of the same old ridiculous threadbare FT copypasta anitcrypto bingo points. BNB is "controversial." SEVEN, count em SEVEN references to FTX in an article about Binance rocking out. Rehash of the report that mentioned Binance and another innocent exchange did trades with Bizlato. The report specifically said Binance and another exchange were not evildoers unlike other Bizlato trading parters which WERE ID'ed as baddies.
Going downhill from there, we read that Binance halted transfers in US dollars. Now this is just a flat out LIE, we wanna CORRECTION!!! Binance only halted transfers in US dollars from non-US clients. Binance US is unaffected. The FT says no reason was given. Binance already gave the reason last week, they are looking for a new US bank.
Hidden at the end of the story, we see a mention that a run on Binance was feared, but never materialized. THAT's another HUGE lie!!! Binance withstood an EIGHT BILLION dollar bank run, second only to USDT , about equal to Silvergate, in the all time list of bank run survivors!!
The REAL story: we are getting VERY sick of this chit. Here, link from Reuters below, is the actual state of play just before FTX blew up:
TLDR: Stop lying FT!! BNBs real rivals were OKX, UpBit, and Coinbase!!! FTX was always down there with KuCoin running about 10% of BNB on a GOOD day!!! Despite Sammy encouraging fake volume from bots.
OK we are crabby but what a blatant load of horsechit. Judges are jetlagged and asleep so we are free to give four out of five FU's for this steaming pile. One for marsha marsha FTX FTX FTX FTX FTX FTX FTX in a Binance article. One for not respecting or even mentioning BNB's 80 billion in reserves and the eight billion $$$ run they withstood. One for the lie about Binance giving no reason, another for pretending that Binance becoming legal in France, Italy, Spain, the Netherlands etc constitutes "scrutiny" - it was a giant WIN!! Another for the canard about no formal HQ. another for retreading the Bizlato mis representation, ah hell, another for pretending FTX was even a real rival, what's that eight FU's, we stand corrected.
Ok we love ya cryptoteers, sorry to get irritated. Sleep well when you do, take care of yourselves and each other, it is exceedingly important!!
Peace out,
Love,
Dave
ps Young the Giant ar ar ar !! An awesome song, decent video tho. Back in the deep south, the scene where Young runs away from the cops reminds us of our misspent youth. Once in New Orleans, we were so lit when the police used a horse to move the crowd, we tried to stop the horse!!! Didn't work, but we are proud to say the horse noticed our efforts! & turned his head! To give us a very surprised look we will always remember. Apparently he was not used to that. The cop was mad the horse turned to look at us. 
Another time, also on Bourbon street, for unknown/forgotten/nonexistent reasons we started teasing a cop we thought was too obnoxious ( actually, WE were ar ar ar.) Much to our surprise, the slow moving cop had faster moving undercover cop friends in the Mardi Gras crowd, and we were able to run away only by leaving our jacket in the hands of the cops!!! In retrospect that was in a fashion sense a good thing, it was a Members Only jacket AH HA HA HA HA
TLDR: like that one, except PURPLE!!!! Yes, that look with yer arms sticking out was a design feature ar ar ar omg imagine thinking that was cool. TBF a "friend" talked us into buying that jacket.
please refer a friend!! we will be here all season !! and it's gonna be a great season!!
Peace out,
love
Dave
