In his recent prison interview with Tucker Carlson, Sam Bankman Fried maintained his innocence and expressed confusion as to why he was convicted of fraud. He argued that FTX was a legitimate service, and although there was a crisis, the company was still solvent. Bankman spoke candidly about his prison experience and shared his thoughts on crypto regulation under a Trump presidency. Tucker Carlson, a right-wing commentator, interviewed him on March 5. Although he did not ask Bankman whether he wished for a pardon from Trump, the conversation ultimately led to whether Bankman supported Democrats or Republicans. The interview occurred in a little side room in Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Centre. Bankman turned 33 on the day of the interview. He discussed details about his sharing a cell block with rapper Sean Combs. In November 2022, the FTX exchange filed for bankruptcy after suffering from liquidity issues due to its complete collapse. This led to U.S. criminal charges against Bankman and four executives, but only Bankman, Caroline Ellison, and Ryan Salame received prison time. “One fact that might be relevant”, said Bankman in the interview. “In 2020, I was center-left, and I gave to Biden’s campaign. I was optimistic he’d be a sort of solid center-left president. I spent the next few years in D.C. a lot. I made dozens of trips there and was really, really shocked by what I saw – not in a good direction – from the administration”. “By late 2022, I was giving to Republicans privately as much as Democrats. And that started becoming known right around FTX’s collapse, so that probably played a role”. Bankman described prison life as “dystopian” and lamented that every day seems to be the same with one day melding with the next. He also said that he feels safe in prison and that the only issue concerning him is getting enough time to prepare his legal cases. He spends most of his time reading books, playing chess with other inmates, and working on his legal case. He describes prison life as soul-crushing because there are few meaningful activities. Bankman gave over $30 million to support predominantly Democratic causes, making him the second-largest contributor to the 2022 midterm election. He is currently waiting for an appeal in Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Centre. He mainly eats rice and beans and laments that no former FTX employees have visited him. Lewis Kaplan, U.S. District Judge, presided over Bankman’s case, and also presided over Jean Carroll’s case against Trump, who successfully sued the president for defamation. “I know President Trump had a lot of frustrations with Judge Kaplan. I certainly did as well”, said Bankman in a separate prison interview with the Sun. In August 2023, the indictment read that Bankman “misappropriated and embezzled FTX customer deposits, and used billions of dollars in stolen funds for a variety of purposes, including to help fund over a hundred million dollars in campaign contributions to Democrats and Republicans to seek to influence cryptocurrency regulation”. However, Bankman showed a lack of remorse in his interview with Tucker Carlson, failing to acknowledge the pain he caused his customers by using their deposits to cover his trading losses in his investment firm. He preferred to focus on his ties with the republican party to gain favor with Trump. Bankman may alternatively argue that banks often use deposits to invest in assets. He has indicated that he plans to appeal the case and may make such arguments at a later date. He further criticised SEC chairman Gary Gensler, claiming he was politically biased and sought power simply by blocking crypto industries. The SEC has recently dropped cases against Bankman’s colleagues. Gensler has also dropped out of the SEC, ending his four-year war against crypto. President Trump has taken a positive approach to regulating the crypto industry. Bankman suggested that he may not be able to survive his entire sentence. He pointed out that studies show that one ages at 3 times the rate when living in prison. “The hardest thing is just not having something meaningful to be doing in here. There are studies, no idea how good they are, but they show you age at roughly three times the normal rate in prison. So you know, you have three times 25 to my 32 years when I was convicted. That gets you an answer, maybe”.

After years of waiting, Pi Network is finally approaching its most anticipated moment—official listing on exchanges! But the burning question remains: Will Pi coin make millionaires overnight or turn out to be a massive disappointment? 🤔💥 Let’s dive deep into the controversy, price predictions, and potential risks surrounding Pi Network’s listing! --- 🎯 Pi Coin Listing: What’s Really Happening? Pi Network started as a revolutionary mobile-mined cryptocurrency, boasting over 50 million engaged users worldwide 🌎. But until now, Pi has had no official market value—just speculation. However, with the Pi Core Team hinting at an exchange listing soon, speculation is at an all-time high. Some insiders claim top exchanges like Binance and Coinbase might list Pi, while skeptics argue that Pi is still far from being a legitimate tradeable asset. Who’s telling the truth? 🤷♂️ --- 💰 Pi Coin Price Predictions: Will You Be Rich or Rugged? Optimistic Predictions 🚀 🔹 Some crypto analysts believe Pi could launch at $10 - $100 due to its massive community. 🔹 Others speculate Pi could hit $314 (π value) or even $1000 if mass adoption takes off. 🔹 Extreme believers predict that Pi will rival Bitcoin, reaching $10,000+ per coin over time. Pessimistic Predictions 💀 🔻 Critics argue Pi could be worth less than $1 due to a lack of real-world utility and an overhyped community-driven valuation. 🔻 Many compare Pi to past crypto projects that never lived up to their promises. 🔻 If Pi fails to secure solid exchange listings, it could end up worthless. So, is Pi the next Bitcoin or just another hyped-up dream? 🤯 --- ⚠️ The Big Controversy: Is Pi Network a Scam? Pi’s biggest criticism is that users have been mining for years with no real rewards. Unlike traditional cryptos, Pi coins cannot be traded yet, leading some to call it a glorified social experiment rather than a real cryptocurrency. Red Flags Critics Highlight: ❌ No clear roadmap for when real trading begins. ❌ No confirmed exchange listings—just rumors. ❌ Some call it a data-collection scheme, as users must verify their identity (KYC) to claim coins. Defenders of Pi Argue: ✅ Bitcoin took years to gain value—Pi is just in its early stages. ✅ The Pi Core Team is ensuring security and stability before launching. ✅ A massive community ensures Pi’s potential success. Who do you believe—the skeptics or the die-hard Pi believers? 🤔🔥 --- 📢 What Should You Do? If you’ve been mining Pi for years, the upcoming listing is your moment of truth! Here’s what you can do: 🔹 Wait for official exchange listings before making any decisions. 🔹 Don’t fall for scams—many fake Pi listings are already appearing. 🔹 Diversify—even if Pi succeeds, don’t put all your hopes in one coin. If Pi launches at a high price, early miners could make life-changing money 💰💎. If it flops, it could become just another forgotten crypto project. The real question is: Are you ready for what’s coming? 🚀🔥 --- 🏆 Final Verdict: Pi Coin—Goldmine or Ghost Coin? The Pi Network listing will be one of the most dramatic moments in crypto history.

Shiboshis, the official NFT collection of the Shiba Inu ecosystem, continue to gain significance. Besides being considered collectibles, Shiboshis have practical uses in gaming, DeFi, and the broader Shib ecosystem. In a long thread on X (formerly Twitter), Shibarium Updates highlighted how crucial Shiboshis are in the ecosystem. As the first official NFT collection in the Shiba Inu ecosystem, Shiboshis offers their owners utilities that expand with the project’s growth. To start off, Shiboshis have already been integrated into Shiba Eternity, a collectible Card Game (CCG) from Shiba Inu Games. Shiboshis are also set to be incorporated into various gaming products related to Shibarium. Titles like Lap Dogs, Agent Shiboshi, Shiboshi Rush, and ShibBridge use these NFTs as part of the playable character to affirm their relevance in blockchain gaming. As the play-to-earn market gains popularity, Shiboshis are bridging the gap between owning it and playing with it. Other features, such as Agent Shiboshi’s 1v1 high-stakes duel feature, support the deflationary model for SHIB. As highlighted by CNF, each match involves the use of 50,000 SHIB, and the winner gets 80% of the tokens. 10% of the tokens are then burnt, and the rest are for reinvestment. This system operates solely on Shibarium, which increases token rarity at the same time as promoting player engagement. Furthermore, Agent Shiboshi is currently planning on launching Sheboshi NFT avatars that will also be used to facilitate gameplay. Besides gaming, Shiboshis also serve as essential elements in DeFi and governance mechanisms. Subsequent use cases can include voting rights for members in the decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs) and the ability to participate in voting on important decisions. It could also give their owners early exposure to new Shib ecosystem projects and tools, which could give them an upper hand. “Of course, they will play a role in Shib: The Metaverse,” highlighting Shiboshis integration into Shib: The Metaverse. Interestingly, Shiboshis also have life partners called Sheboshis. Their breeding will create new NFTs and further diversify the population within the metaverse. SHIB has recently been affected by Bitcoin’s volatility, with BTC’s recent plunge to $83,000 leading to a 16% decline in SHIB over the last month. Shib is currently trading at $0.00001356, experiencing a 2% decline. While reaching one cent this year is unlikely, significant increases in the coin’s value remain possible. However, crypto analyst Javon Marks seems optimistic about the Shiba Inu token, indicating that the token has been gearing up for a massive surge. According to him, SHIB has the potential to increase by 450%, and its price can reach $0.000081 in the near future. According to Marks, SHIB remains in its’ breakout pattern from late 2022 into early 2023 with overall prices being positive. If this is the case, then a sharp increase in the token may be expected, however, the current market conditions are not very favourable.
