This video is an opinion and in no way should be construed as statements of fact. Scams, bad business opportunities, and fake gurus are subjective terms that mean different things to different people. I think someone who promises $100K/month for an upfront fee of $2K is a scam. Others would call it the "opportunity of a lifetime."

The 40 million dollar penthouse! My boy moving up in the world. I still remember the humble ol’ days of the 10Million dollar studio.

The idea that Sam might've actually saw Coffee while at trial is hilarious af.

[NikoBee]

The fact that a scammer can look around the courtroom and see Coffeezilla just staring back at him, poetic justice

Edit: He wasn't in the courtroom with him and didn't exchange glances. He may have been able to upon leaving the courts? Nevertheless, justice was served

It's a sign of how bad things are when celebrity endorsement costs far more than bribing government officials.

[Borzah]

that's crazy how a youtuber was part of this whole criminal scam case

[patrickholt]

“I ain’t no snitch!”
“You’re looking at 115 years”
“It was Sam he did it and he made me commit illegal crimes!”

It's hilarous to imagine Sam contemplating how much evidence against him existed, before looking up and seeing Coffee staring at him from across the room with a massive shit-eating grin on his face

[Joseph-mwrl]

If I was the defense laywer I would just tell Sammy to start spinning on the stand and sing "I'm only human afterall"

[pacmonster]

Sam Bankman-Fried's testimony is *exactly* why defense attorneys *rarely* let their defendant testify in these kind of cases. It almost never ends well.

[BirdieGoBoom]

Hilarious that Sam's initial defense of "Oh, I'm just a big dummy dumb-dumb who didn't have any idea what was going on and maybe I made some oopsie-doopsies" backfired so spectacularly 😂

[MartinInBC]

If you were found guilty of financial crimes in a country that had the electric chair as a punishment the worst surname to have is Bankman Fried.

[Mithorium]

can’t believe they would let sam testify, signed his own death warrant with that opening him up to cross. every time he “didnt recall” something the prosecution was more than happy to help jog his memory

[madisonholtze]

I admire Coffeezilla seeing this all the way through- even flying to NY. The man is dedicated!

[lax]

I can just imagine SBF and Coffee locking eyes in the ruckus and a moment of clarity hits him and he recognizes Coffee from his videos. I would pay a kings ransom to see that unfold. This trial is like watching the worlds shittiest super villains get sent to court.

[DarkLordSkeletor]

He's Sam's worst nightmare. And the fact that Sam blatantly lied on stand and thought he did a good job.

[neenbean]

24:29 as a former auditor, looking at these balance sheets are making me CRINGE. I cannot believe they thought they could pull this off lmao

[nolongerblocked]

The entire trial just proves why defendants are _always told_ *never do interviews with anyone* after you've been charged. SBF was going to lose this case bcuz of the data trail, but him speaking in all those interviews just crushed any excuse he could've used in court

[gadzks]

I read that at some point SBF was being so annoyingly evasive that, while trying to establish how he became CEO, the prosecution directly asked him "So did you just accidently become CEO?" and forced him to directly state how he got the role.

[rainspectre]

Coffee is legitimately one of the people showing YouTube's merit as a legitimate platform; he's now one of the leading investigative journalists in digital fraud.

Update: He was sentenced to 25 years in prison
