I remember when FTX was the talk of the town and I was like lol I'm not going to touch that with a ten foot pole because obviously. Why would I do that when I can just stake my crypto on-chain myself with my own keys? That was the only thing they offered before everyone else: staking for yield.

In retrospect I wish I had paid more attention because it would have been stupidly easy to short FTT and even LUNA/UST into the dirt right before they collapsed.
