Munger said çryto is rat poison but people refuse to listen and refuse to stay away from such investments that they don't understand.

But Steinberg cautions retail investors about being enticed to put money into speculative holdings just because influential funds and celebrities have bought in.
"What we all really know is that these massive companies or super wealthy people are putting, probably, pennies of their net worth or value into crypto. So, for BlackRock or Ontario Teachers', if they lose the whole thing, it is a rounding error," Steinberg said.
"The fact that big names are in there should mean absolutely nothing to anyone. It's a function of how much of their net worth do they actually have in these things?"
The FTX liquidity crunch is just the latest stumble in the crypto industry that some institutional investors have found themselves wrapped up in. Quebec's pension giant Caisse de dépôt et placement du Québec decided to fully write off its US$150 million investment in Celsius Network LLC earlier this year after the crypto lender went bankrupt.

Quote:Bloomberg - FTX Warns of Bankruptcy Without Rescue for $8 Billion Shortfall
Sam Bankman-Fried told FTX.com investors Wednesday that without a cash injection the company would need to file for bankruptcy, according to a person with direct knowledge of the matter.
On a call before Binance pulled an about-face and bailed on its takeover offer, Bankman-Fried informed investors his crypto exchange faced a shortfall of up to $8 billion and needed $4 billion to remain solvent, the person said, asking not to be named discussing private talks. FTX is attempting to raise rescue financing in the form of debt, equity, or a combination of the two, the person said.
“I f---ed up,” Bankman-Fried told investors on the call, according to people with knowledge of the conversation. He said he would be “incredibly, unbelievably grateful” if investors could help.
An FTX representative declined to comment.
The acknowledgment of his firm’s deepening troubles and limited options is a stunning turn for the crypto industry’s onetime wunderkind, who was once worth $26 billion and likened to John Pierpont Morgan. It also underscores the uncertainty hanging over FTX, its clients and cryptocurrency markets.
Hanging in the balance as the exchange teeters is not just the fate of its investors and lenders but anyone who has been unable to retrieve customer assets since it halted some withdrawals earlier in the week. The failure of crypto firms Celsius and Voyager saw billions in client money tied up in bankruptcy proceedings.
FTX has a prominent list of backers such as Sequoia Capital, BlackRock Inc., Tiger Global Management and SoftBank Group Corp. Sequoia wrote down the full value of its holdings in FTX.com and FTX.us, an indication that the firm sees no clear path to recouping its investment.
Still, Bankman-Fried remained defiant during a hectic period of roughly 24 hours that included mounting speculation that Binance wouldn’t go through with the deal.
He repeatedly told investors during the conference call on Wednesday afternoon that it was simply not true that Changpeng Zhao was walking away from the takeover, the person said.
About an hour later, Binance said it was indeed backing out.
