ELI5: Why are butters willing to entrust the recovery of an exchange that lost more than $60m to the people operating it instead of legal procedures? (self.Buttcoin)

Is this some kind of financial cuckoldry or SFYL fetish?

Stockholm Syndrome, I'd imagine.

What do you mean, "legal procedures"?

There was no smart contract and no code enforcing it, so the only law that existed was POLICE STATE law.

The only thing I'll ever say to one of those pig cops with guns is "AM I BEING DETAINED?!"

Don't worry, they called "the police".

What police and where, don't ask!

The butters have seen this play out over and over, and still somehow believed they were immune. When the exchange went down, the belief was shattered, and they knew their money was probably gone forever.

Getting back 64% is such a better outcome than they were mentally preparing themselves for that they are now euphoric. Forget the lack of transparency or security or legality. "They're only taking a third of our money? They're heroes!"
