BitBoy Crypto’s Ben discusses allegations against Binance and the potential impact on investors. He notes that there are two groups of people discussing Binance. The first group, including Bitcoin maximalists, are warning against exchanges and advising users to withdraw their funds. The second group is disingenuous and includes those who are trying to hurt Binance and absolve FTX of any wrongdoing. Ben also discusses his team’s efforts to uncover evidence related to the collapse of crypto platforms in the Bahamas, including criminal complaints and civil lawsuits against FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried, and states that they have uncovered money and property in other accounts not related to the bankruptcies.

Exploring the Binance FUD: Separating Fact from Fiction
Welcome to BitBoy Crypto!
My name is Ben, and I’m here in the beautiful Bahamas to bring you the latest news in the crypto world. Today, the topic of discussion is Binance and the ongoing FUD (fear, uncertainty, and doubt) around it.
The Bahamas: What We’ve Been Up To
Before diving into the Binance FUD, let me share what we have been doing here in the Bahamas. We have been taking a vested interest in what’s happening here, and we are filing criminal complaints and a civil lawsuit against Sam and FTX. We have a plan to unravel the entire ball of yarn of every collapse we saw this year, and we have been happy to work with the Bahamian people here to uncover the truth.
Is Binance in Trouble?
Now, let’s talk about Binance. There is a lot of FUD out there about Binance, and while we don’t know what’s going to happen, we believe that it’s just a lot of fear-mongering. There are two groups of people when it comes to Binance: those who believe third-party exchanges are bad and warn you to get your money off there and those who are disingenuous and just want to hurt Binance and absolve FTX of any wrongdoing.
The First Group: Third-Party Exchanges are Bad
The first group of people includes Bitcoin maximalists, like Mike Alfred and Neil Jacobs, who have always been against Binance because they don’t like altcoins and exchange coins. They are telling you to get your money off exchanges, and it’s a fine message. However, they may be going a little too far, and they don’t have any evidence of wrongdoing, other than citing general business practices.
The Second Group: Disingenuous Propaganda for FTX
The second group is completely disingenuous and includes paid propaganda arms of Alameda and FTX, like Kevin O’Leary and Jim Cramer. They want you to believe that Binance is bad and absolve FTX of any wrongdoing. They are pushing this message that Sam Bankman-Fried and FTX had nothing to do with the collapse and that Binance did it all. This is not true at all and is a lie. Kevin O’Leary is a fraud, and he needs to be eradicated from our space for pushing this message.
The Verdict
In conclusion, while there may be some valid concerns around third-party exchanges like Binance, much of the FUD around it is just fear-mongering and disingenuous propaganda. We need to separate fact from fiction and hold those responsible for wrongdoing accountable while not spreading baseless rumors and misinformation.
