So hire a Coyote into Mexico on foot. Got it. For my assigned agent: this is not an admission of guilt, just curiosity and information collection. Carry on.
FBI is too busy planting evidence to assign an agent to every person on HN.

Just because you can get away with a crime doesnt mean its not a real crime
That's not my point. Insider trading is so easy that anybody with privileged information can do it and even get away with it if they're cautious. Instead of working tirelessly just to catch the sloppy 1% we should reform the market so that nobody has an advantage because of what they know.
Wow, the indictment references [this tweet][1] that caused Coinbase to investigate the matter and ultimately led the defendant in being caught at the airport before trying to leave the country. > On May 11, 2022, Coinbase’s director of security operations emailed ISHAN WAHI to inform him that he should appear for an in-person meeting relating to Coinbase’s asset listing process at Coinbase’s Seattle, Washington offic…
Haha, and the first reply to that tweet is complaining that the SEC is ignoring this while shackling another Coinbase venture. That didn't age well! https://twitter.com/ChainLinkGod/status/1513926481486909442 Edit: Quoting in case it gets deleted: >>While the SEC was very swift in shutting down Coinbase Lend for DARING to provide 4% yield >>They’ll do absolutely nothing about this situation because they are a corrupt…

Crypto needs to grow up and accept regulation too if it wants to be taken seriously as an industry.
It talks volumes about the internal controls at CB that it took a tweet to expose this. Given the speed with which they grew last two years I expect their financial and security processes to be next to nothing. This is just tip of an iceberg. Insiders would have made tens of millions over last two years of bull run, if not more. This dude just got greedy and unlucky to get caught just as the crypto bubble began burst…
I studied accounting. We were told that Internal Control, audits, reviews etc. are the silver bullets to curbing corporate corruption and accounting scandals. When we reached master's level all that was thrown out of the window and the truth was that, those techniques are only there to serve nothing but regulatory and statutory requirements.
