The possibility of “made whole” is based on crypto values at the time of bankruptcy filing—meaning not really whole.
FTXFF was IIRC ~$150MM in grants, a substantial portion of which will end up clawed back. The losses (based on current crypto values) are exponentially greater than that. I suspect that the bulk of the economic impact involves transfers from customers, investors, and lenders to Alameda creditors?
Also, one can argue that crypto itself is net harmful, so any crypto career is presumptively so as well.

I tend to agree with all these points, actually—forgot about the clawbacks & specifically how substantial they were.
