What I find hilarious is people's inability to grasp probability and sample sizes.
I don't think he won 50 dice rolls in a row, not remotely close actually. The first win was the time and place he was born into, his father had a stake at an emerald mine and he was right on cue for the dot com era, he had Canadian citizenship by birth, and his immigration to the US was trivial, he had the connections and the money.
One does not need 50 dice rolls to get there; a single roll of the dice has insane consequences, ask all the people from China or India playing the visa and green-card lottery because they happened to be born in China or India.
I never said he's just a crypto-bro either, you are just in denial. I said he's some guy who played crypto-bros and investment bros like a fiddle. He sold a brand, is currently facing market manipulation and insider trading investigations [1], and pumped a crypto coin (ie something totally unregulated). He had the money in the first place in there, and he had the influence. If you have no morality, you need to be a moron not to do that given that you can do it.
