He’s going down for a long time, and personally I think he’s an over-confident, misguided fool.
But I don’t think he’s a crook, in the sense that he originally set out to be dishonest from day one.
I think his well-intentioned, cocky plans turned to shit when he found himself playing a game of cryptopoly with other people’s real money and landed on the "Go to jail. Go directly to jail. Do not pass ‘Go’. Do not collect £200“ square.
I feel ever so slightly sorry for him. His entire life is now fucked.
