I actually talked to Sam for a bit in the "early days" and he always seemed like an OK guy. Approachable and "honest" which makes this all the worse... I kept asking "why start an exchange when you're killing it with Alameda?" and his response seemed to consistently be about wanting to make a better product and legitimize crypto... ugh, don't even know what to think now... if that was all a front.
It's really odd to think because its always "some guy in the news" that gets bad press and demonized (not unjustly), never really someone you "know of." (prob a lot of ppl w/that experience hanging around HN tho, lol)
It's just weird feelings but mostly just "wtf man."
