🚨EPSTEIN FILES: THE KARDASHIAN CONNECTION? A victim complaint in the Epstein files sent to SDNY in 2020 makes some wild claims. The writer claims funds were being stolen "in this deal with the Kardashian family" and that "Khloe and Kendall had special interest in my marriages and change of name". She says Kim Kardashian was "mentioned by Lorida Julie who was Tiger Woods' mistress" in connection to identity fraud and a $600 million cosmetic company exit. The same complaint alleges Tiger Woods' "madam" described "horrible things happening in the Island including dead body of a girl that had mask and was tied to a tree" This is an unverified victim complaint, not evidence.

South Korea's FSS Launches Formal Investigation into Bithumb's "Ghost Bitcoin" Mispayment Incident According to Yonhap News, South Korea's Financial Supervisory Service (FSS) has escalated the investigation into Bithumb's Bitcoin mispayment incident to a formal audit. Previously, Bithumb mistakenly distributed approximately 620,000 Bitcoins due to employee operational errors, far exceeding its actual holdings. The investigation focuses on: • Whether there was a violation of the "actual holding obligation" (actual assets must match the ledger); • The "ghost currency" issue (assets generated out of nowhere under ledger-based transaction models); • Internal control vulnerabilities (such as single-person approval for large transfers, no multi-level reviews); • Whether the misissued assets and large-scale withdrawals pose equivalent systemic risks. The incident triggered a brief market crash, and 99.7% of the mistakenly issued BTC has been recovered. Bithumb has promised to compensate for the difference and provide an additional 10% compensation. #Bitcoin #BTC #Bithumb #GhostBitcoin

@bitpunkseer Bithumb deposited 620,000 and recovered 99.7%, which proved it. What's left in the exchange is not your Bitcoin, but just a number in the exchange's database. Now you know why the saying "Not your keys, not your coins" exists.
