Alameda just non-maliciously gave their own account special privileges on their own exchange, non-maliciously front-ran customer orders, non-maliciously traded on material nonpublic information (their own exchange listings), non-maliciously used their ownership of their exchange to strike trades that caused them $400mm of losses in one of their multiple KCG-style algorithmic meltdowns, non-maliciously stole billions of dollars from their exchange's customers, non-maliciously lied about Bahamas residents being senior to all other creditors so they could withdraw hundreds of millions of dollars again, non-maliciously "hacked" their exchange wallets to steal additional hundreds of millions of dollars from their creditors, and non-maliciously prematurely unlocked hundreds of millions of dollars of FTT and sent it to binance to dump.



All with the best of intentions.

For the greater good of humanity. The most effective altruism.
