All My Apes Gone

I guess it was a mistake for me to have a billion bucks in Binance.

Binance has confirmed that cryptocurrency firms have frozen at least $2.54 billion following a security incident on Thursday, though it’s far from clear that the tally reflects the complete extent of the damage. (See update below.)

Making a rhetorical point here, not looking for explanations, but if I tried to transfer 7 figures internationally, at least one of the involved banks would probably put a hold on it, and the tax authorities would get a note, yet with these guys... 

Money laundering, fraud, and theft is the entire point and "we" have spent years pretending otherwise.
