### BREAKING — SBF Donates 99% of Fortune Ahead of Schedule

Everyone loved crypto's golden child Sam Bankman-Fried, and not because he purportedly was going to [open](https://therug.mirror.xyz/O3Giyet6djcu7PUB92s2pGA7cQaQc6Yw5OM1zBLLP_0) a Fried Chicken franchise. In this newest event, his philanthropic goals were put into top priority as he donated, as promised, most of his net worth away.

### UPDATE — SBF No Longer Liquid Enough To Open Sam Bankman-Fried Chicken Franchise

SBF no longer has enough liquidity to open that coveted Fried Chicken franchise. It's unfortunate. We were all looking forward to actually getting what we paid for.

### BUSINESS — Revised CEX Roadmap Focuses on Getting CEO in Shape for Prison

**Under The Rug** is a crypto-comedy podcast based on the hardest hitting headlines in Web3. In each episode a rotating cast of the comedians at The Rug get together to chop peanuts, craft jokes, and discuss things semi-crypto comedy related.

Our sixth episode, entitled, “[R](https://anchor.fm/therugnews/episodes/Under-The-Rug--Ep--6-Redacted-e1q0qfi)[edacted](https://anchor.fm/therugnews/episodes/Under-The-Rug--Ep--6-Redacted-e1q0qfi)" is now available. In this [sixth episode of Under The Rug](https://anchor.fm/therugnews/episodes/Under-The-Rug--Ep--6-Redacted-e1q0qfi) subjects mentioned included cancelling your credit card to annoy monthly subscription services, Michael Saylor impersonations, the historical personage known as 'Rugstradamus', the multi-leveled nature of calling the merge, _mergé_, SBF conspiracy because his name is literally Bank Man, and much much less…

Between Nov of 2021 & March of 2022 The Rug [shipped six classically inspired news NFT’s](https://therug.mirror.xyz/6hSdcsTvShGr0mwDXKVBovKWpiv7HfjYhbdLngvhoyc). This was a Christmas themed late December [edition](https://therug.mirror.xyz/editions/0xDF5b5ee15CC96ba7d0CB6BD9b2c0fc4417ab6445/3131) of last year, note the viewing times for _DAI Hard,_ and _wELF_, and _ETH, Actually_. Perhaps a _Rugstradamus_ moment was calling the Ohm [movement](https://www.tradingview.com/chart/OHMDAI/p28O968Z-RIP-3-3-OHMIES/) a **Miracle on (3, 3) Street**. A Vol. II edition of the NFT forthcoming this winter.
