They didn't. Circle bought poloniex, GS merely helped them get funding. That's what investment banks do, by definition. It's their business.
Don't mistake that for an indication that Polo is now owned by GS, that is false. They do not own Polo.

Anon crypto isnt dying. This is simply a typical Hegelian dialectic situation playing out.

Problem, reaction then solution its as old as the hills. The financial system has a problem and one reaction is the advent of alternative crypto currencies to fill a gap. However this gives the current financial system an extra headache as this crypto model does away with their usury and middle man status. Hence they will attempt to combat cryptos first by assimilating them then ultimately controlling them which is their solution but not necessarily our solution. You have been warned.

Sachs didn't. A company they have a small stake in (compared to what they invest in other companies) did. One of the founders of the company that bought Poloniex used to work at Sachs and probably got the investment cash from Sacs because of that.

The reason they bought it is obvious - the money to be made right now is in exchanges. They will be the first US exchange to offer margin-trading type offerings, and there's a considerable amount of money on the table there.

This is all public information. Sachs did not influence the company's decision to buy it. They're just an investor, and that company has been profitable so far.

You coinfags here never do any research. The information is all out there.

The amount Sachs invested is pretty small, too, compared to what they invest in other markets/industries. They probably spend more on the electric bills for their buildings than the entire investment in Circle. Sachs invested 50 million in Circle in it's first round of investment, GS made 37 billion last year. 50 million for a company like GS is nothing.

The interesting thing to me is Circle's CEO Allaire. He helped make ColdFusion, ran Macromedia and pushed Flash, and founded Brightcove. Doesn't mean anything, just that he's been around the scene for a while.

Why would someone who is already a billionaire invest in something so risky? Crypto is also harder to invest in for him than the assets he is used to, and is a technology that even most people that already invest in understands very little about.

fast currencies are actually worth less because the faster you can transfer a currency, the less total value it needs, to be able to handle all the value being transacted. If this does not make sense to you you need to go back and study economics.

The big dogs aren't buying in. Why would they? They watched a commodity shoot up in value in an insane way, and lose most of it in two months.

What benefit would they get taking a risk like that? They didn't get to be big dogs playing with what are essentially penny stocks.

Instead, you have the big institutions saying things like BofA did recently, where one of their top executives said it was detrimental to their business. All of the big banks banned credit card purchases of crypto - that's not a move that's saying 'We support crypto".

Look at it from the point of view of the banking system. It offers them no benefit, they have no control over it, and it erodes their profits. Why would they willingly adopt technology that has no benefit to them?

Same for Wall Street. They just see crypto as disruptive to their business model, that they've invested huge fortunes in.

>not knowing how Jews play the game
Kek.

They bought Poloniex so they can position themselves in. Notice how they bought Poloniex through Circle then FUD crypto in the media saying Bitcoin and Ethereum are in a bubble (not far from truth). Jews didn't get rich by buying in late snd being liberal with their money. They got rich by buying at bargains and selling at the highs to gullible goyim. Then when the market collapses again, they wait until it becomes a bargain once anew and start the whole cycle all over again.

Boom and bust cycles my friend, that's how the game is played

Crypto isn't going to dissapear, they will likely start looking at putting securities on the blockchain etc. Just because all these tokens have no value doesn't mean you can actually use tokens for an actuall purpose such as tokenising securities and stocks... I suppose.
