I would probably add a distinction that one of the main current use-cases proven is avoiding restrictions rather than regulation/laws. I think a much more positive case can be made for working around limitations that are put in by large players in various industries to make it harder for the common person to do something or start a business in a given area, even in cases where there aren't specific laws around it.

No it isn't. That's what SBF is trying to tell people to make it sound like it's just a story of incompetence and incorrect valuations. They stole user deposits which were specifically not meant to have anything done to them but be held and used them in the trading arm/to prop up other things.

The price of FTT shouldn't have mattered to anyone not holding FTT. But yes the precipitant here was that they had clearly been thinking "oh we have loads of FTT still so can always sell that to cover user withdrawals and won't get caught".

Except that FTX isn't "crypto" it is/was a centralised exchange, a company just like others. So whether you believe crypto itself is a scam or not, this is straight up old-style fraud from a company doing things they shouldn't, so not really the same thing.
