I’m not trying to take credit for my silent suspicion. One of the reasons the crypto industry is notorious is because of fraud. I think that’s a natural case a dedicated risk team could have considered if we’d had one.
I initially interpreted your comment as being only about things other than fraud. You’re right that “person makes a lot of money in crypto” probably boosts the base rate for fraud by more than 10x, so your point is great. I think a lot of people, myself included, thought “surely he wouldn’t do anything too blatant (despite crypto).”
