technology. certain parts of those surveys are supposed to be inaudible infrastructure and governed by non—profit and yet, there is so much capitalistic kind of approaches to control of the commercial aspect and commercial potential of this technology. i think that openai saga was, you know, the fundamental tension is really between the nonprofit mission versus full profit but, of course, there is a lot of nuance between this in terms of how they govern, how the board handles this whole situation, including exactly what technical concerns that the board has seemed to compel them to press the panic button. last night overnight i woke up to a lot of discussion in terms of studies but we can take that later but the most important thing we can ask is what kind of, you know, technology, what kind of digital service should be governed by non—profit and regarded as a public service and what kind of technology should be controlled by shareholders and commercial services? �* , shareholders and commercial services? 3 ., shareholders and commercial services?— shareholders and commercial services? �*, ., ., services? let's now zoom in on finance because _ services? let's now zoom in on finance because its _ services? let's now zoom in on finance because its leadershipl finance because its leadership changed also marks the latest scandal for the crypto industry which is still reeling from the collapse last year of rival platform ftx. and the commitment of fraud of founder sam bankman—fried this month —— binance. earlierspoke sam bankman—fried this month —— binance. earlier spoke to justin from kye rowles and he told me by this time around there hasn't been much of a reaction in the crypto currency markets. ., ., ., ~ markets. from a market perspective _ markets. from a market perspective what - markets. from a market perspective what is - markets. from a market - perspective what is remarkable is that most parts have been unfazed in the crypto spaces business as usual regardless of how it may sound the outside perspective. besides withdrawals that were taken out of binance, abouti billion so far, the exchange itself keeps on being operational, it is still the largest training venuein still the largest training venue in terms of users or product or venues and so most parts of binance are not changing their behaviour. maybe the one dynamic you would expect is other exchanges would take the opportunity of this new cycle to solidify their position, right, so ipx which are seen as the exchange after finance would probably be a bit more aggressive in terms of use acquisition or product development or other places suffer. ., ., ., ., suffer. the value of ma'or cryptocurrencies i suffer. the value of ma'or cryptocurrencies has i suffer. the value of major cryptocurrencies has not l suffer. the value of major- cryptocurrencies has not really moved either and you spoke about the withdrawal which there was some but compared to ftx, it's kind of nothing. why is that? is ftx, it's kind of nothing. why is that? , . , , is that? is a simple explanation, - is that? is a simple explanation, in - is that? is a simple explanation, in ftx is that? is a simple - explanation, in ftx there is that? is a simple _ explanation, in ftx there was something fundamentally wrong with the management and operations of the exchange which were just playing out fraudulent. funds were taken out and everybody essentially went for a bank run and tried to remove the funds but for binance the issue is not about the exchange, the platform, but more about the compliance and regulatory practices of maybe management and the different users that were accepted on the platform. but it doesn't come as a shock and it doesn't really impact the functioning of the exchange itself. an analogy i've used when describing this issue is more if you think about traditional finance in large banks, think of baby ubs or hsbc, maybe they would be fine for bad behaviour but it doesn't mean stocks as a whole would go down —— think of maybe. or even the sector as a whole is suffering. they pay the fine and they can carry on and maybe improve their practices. i think it's a similar case happening here with binance. d0 similar case happening here with binance.— similar case happening here with binance. do you make of the new singaporean -
