another great (and very detailed) resource on the #debanking and "Operation Chokepoint 2.0" conspiracy theories being wielded against the #CFPB and #FDIC from #PatrickMcKenzie (Patio11).

#NathanMcCauley, the broligarch who runs "crypto bank" #AnchorageDigital, asked Patrick to retract the post. He refused.

Fintech Business Weekly is easily the best outlet covering attacks on #CFPB by crypto creeps like #MarcAndreessen (#a16z) and #BrianArmstrong (#Coinbase). The #debanking and “Operation Chokepoint 2.0” conspiracy theories are being weaponized by these #NerdReich bros to deregulate what is already an incredible fraudulent industry.

@GottaLaff the crypto bros are big mad about the collapse of #Silvergate and Signature banks (AKA "the big crypto banks"). the conspiracy theory they have about the #FDIC is called "Operation Chokepoint 2.0" if you want to look into it.

(the reality is that Silvergate and Signature banks were massive money laundering hubs, moving literally trillions of dollars a year in untracked funds outside of all money laundering regulations. they were both intimately connected to #FTX)
