The article details several possibilities for how the account may have been compromised, highlighting the importance of strong passwords and multi-factor authentication for securing social media accounts, especially for celebrities with large followings.

    You keep saying things you are not backing up with evidence.

    Anyone can make the claims you are making. You have already been shown to have made false claims about taxes.

    It seems I have to “do my own research” to find out if anything you say is true… or just stop trusting anything you say, which would be a hell of a lot easier. And if you expect everyone to research whether or not you’re saying true things and then give up their dollars for crypto currency within, say, the next 20 years I think you’re going to be very much mistaken because I have never been less convinced to adopt crypto currency than right now.

      Fair enough, but at the end of the day, that’s why you are you and I am me. We are all different people with different sets of opinions about how the world has worked, is working, and will work. We express that through our actions in life. I have been Am and will continue to be a crypto user because I find it has value in the world and other people agree with me. I can’t say what you were, are, or have been, but you have a view of the world, and think cryptocurrency is worth nothing, and you express that opinion by not using cryptocurrency.
