> Lots of folks are assuming fraud but I'm willing to put money that it was just a shitty, buggy ledger.

I'm not sure there's much difference. Intent only matters so much.



I mean... Fraud is defined by intent.

You can argue negligence over mistake. But fraud definitely requires intent.


I guess my point is it's as harmful as fraud regardless if we can throw someone in prison.


Oh, for sure. But treatment/remediation will heavily change between the cases. Right?
