What is this article, haha?
It's no surprise that the former trader would quickly catch on to the commodity of choice in his new environment. He has been a professional trader for much of his career. In 2013, he got his first intern gig at Jane Street Capital, swapping exchange-traded funds before cofounding his crypto-trading firm Alameda Research in 2017. A year later, he figured out how to arbitrage bitcoin between the US and Japanese markets.
Yes, with his lengthy four year career before getting into the scam business he was certainly a master of his craft, lol.

I fact checked the bit about mackerel and it sounds like everyone uses it in prison over there, so he's just doing what all the other inmates do.
Whatever happened to chocolate.

It’s like someone who can’t see bread without seeing a sandwich, and then getting annoyed that others won’t stop making sandwiches.
