Great news, crypto's collapsing across the board: https://www.techpowerup.com/282380/...ions-in-less-than-24-hours-did-the-bubble-pop

CPU mining now a thing

CPU mining has been a thing for awhile. Especially since ghostrider came onto the scene. QBIC is also making waves, though for how long, we don't know.

A question: if you are involved in a crime but you revoke your citizenship before the crime comes to light, can the US authorities still extradite you?

 

[VirtualLarry]

What does your citizenship have to do with their authority? What matters is the citizenship of the victims in question, the location that the alleged crime(s) have occurred, and the legal authority of those jurisdiction(s) including extradition treaties.

Extradition is not dependent on someone being a citizen or not. For example, Assange was extradited and he wasn't a US citizen.

Giving up your citizenship is not some magical get out of jail card.

FTX will return money to most customers less than 2 years after catastrophic crypto collapse

FTX says that nearly all of its customers will receive the money back that they are owed, two years after the cryptocurrency exchange imploded, and some will get more than that.
