Bitcoin Price Manipulation (SBF and FTX)

In this video, I discuss whether SBF and Caroline Ellison conspired to keep Bitcoin's price below $20,000 in the final days of FTX.
I demonstrate that the actual context of Caroline's notes are a liquidity crisis at Alameda and the need to procure capital to pay back a loan to Genesis, using FTX customer money.
SBF almost certainly gave Caroline that $20,000 sell limit order, not in order to pin BTC below that price (which would actually work against his own interests), but rather to raise a certain amount of capital off of FTX customer BTC deposits that could only be attained if the sell orders were executed at $20,000 or above.
Anyone who tries to suppress the price of Bitcoin will eventually get taken away on a stretcher.
