What are we talking about? SBF's degeneracy might have inadvertently good consequences but it doesn't exonerate him.
In an ideal world people like him would be executed. They'll think twice before defrauding hundreds of thousands of people.

I just struggle to look at his victims and see them as such. Execution? Ideal if it wasn't the state and revenge a sacred monopoly, as in the victims kill him. That's been abstracted, and there are in our world conflicting signals on his behavior, as it's idolized in culture (Wolf of Wallstreet, etc). There's no reason to believe anything but a new base layer of trust changes this. But like Madoff's victims (who got 90% of everything back), or Dokwon's victims, I see a bunch of conmen and liars, and can't help but roll my eyes hearing them complain their shitcoins went to zero.

99% of people do not defraud others. We all know it's wrong. The signals are not that mixed.
