It'd be quite humorous if this is how Binance goes down: by pouring money into the next major scamcoin company collapse, until Binance has nothing left.
BTW be prepared for BTC to dip as know-nothings get spooked. BTC dipped a little over the last 24 hours, but if Binance goes down we will see a bigger dip.

If binance collapsed it would be orders of magnitude worse than mnt gox.
Extremely unlikely. I dislike cexs as much as anyone here but Binance looks like it's here to stay.
The only way I see that changing is if all the shitcoins collapsed and Bitcoin dominance spiked to >90%. A bitcoin-only market is essentially an exchange killer, they don't get to make a dime on shitcoin casino gambling swaps.

Indeed, and that will happen sooner than people expect. Unemployment is going to increase and many people are going to be forced to sell cryptocurrencies in order to pay their bills. Imagine choosing between having a cryptocurrency portfolio and having an apartment for another month.
Exchanges are not prepared for what is coming and, as you point out ("A bitcoin-only market is essentially an exchange killer"), they cannot be prepared for what's coming.
The only reason Bitcoin could survive such a crash is because has such a higher price than all other cryptocurrencies. It's like every cryptocurrency is standing on a ladder. When the market goes down, they all step several wrungs. Bitcoin has the tallest ladder by a wide margin.

The markets are trying to find out if Alameda Research's lenders are going to send in the margin calls. My guess is they work something out, but if the markets absolutely puke from this already low position then that is SBF being carried out in a body bag.

all this looks like tradefi before regulators came along. in any event blockchain or no blockchain, that does not stop companies from taking on too much debt. a publicly visible ledger for btc transactions doesn't stop Almeda research owning a ton of FTT tokens. I also doesn't stop people trading there

From following the tweets of the last few days it feels like Binance caused a run on the bank at FTX and then took advantage of the opportunity which opened. Amirite?

Yes, CZ showed intention to buy FTX. But FTX was going around buying all failing exchanges in the last year.
What CZ is going to find when he starts looking under the hood?
Whatever is there, CZ already know and he will use it to buy this for a penny or for some master plan we can't understand
