The Justice Department isn't going to prosecute any elite billionaire unless they pull a Bernie Madoff and rip off richer people, or unless they become inconvenient like Jeffrey Epstein. And you know what happened to Epstein. Look at the consequences paid by former Lehman Brothers CEO Dick "Gorilla" Fuld, for example - none.*

If you liked the 2007 subprime mortgage crash, you'll love the crypto crash; brought to you by the same sorts of folks.

*start with https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_S._Fuld_Jr. and/or see the film The Last Days of Lehman Brothers; then read some of the serious journalistic investigations.
