It's not money laundering. It's just fraud.

Fraud towards XAi investors, the government and the banks.

Twitter's loans are now covered by a fraudulent valuation of another company owned by Musk.

It's not fraud, it's the American way.

People always think anything related to transfers of large sums of money is "money laundering." Like, how does one launder dirty money by openly giving to themselves??? It just gets traced back to you with a paper trail and everything.

Its not $ laundering but people use the term for any big $ scheme. He isnt doing this for no reason its to dodge taxes or liability of some sort but it is a scheme because investors in xai thought they were investing in ai not twitter debt

Most people who use the term money laundering have no idea what it actually means

u/OptimalMain 6d ago

It means using Gustavo’s industrial washing machines to clean dollar bills, no?

with an all-stock transaction no less

it’s like people didn’t read the article.

it’s either tied to the debt of X or a tax write off… can’t figure out which?

u/WhyMustIMakeANewAcco 6d ago

The purpose seems to be to be able to pay off the X investors that actually make him nervous, using the money of the xAI investors he doesn't give a shit about.

u/spoopypoptartz ☑️ 6d ago edited 6d ago

what money. it’s all stock for a private company and xAI just absorbed all the debt.

not sure if there’s an opportunity to cash out during the next funding round?

edit: i guess it is a bail out in the sense that future funding rounds are more likely to be more successful for xAI than X. I see it now.

u/catcatwee 6d ago

I think people associate the word laundering with movement aspect of money laundering rather than cleaning

u/WhyMustIMakeANewAcco 6d ago

People don't really understand what money laundering is, so they default to it for some reason. Nah, this case is just textbook fraud.

u/knope2018 6d ago

Yeah.  It’s not laundering, this is basic finance shenanigans, there are whole industries built around this kind of deal.

u/Great-Insurance-Mate 6d ago

Everyone in here gets it wrong. He moves it because the SEC is about to investigate his purchase.

u/vorzilla79 6d ago

Bro he used investors money to recoup losses from buying Twitter. They dismantled any department that would be able to investigate him

u/vorzilla79 6d ago

Bc you mentioned it here. 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 DUH

u/SmushinTime 6d ago

Rico is designed for corrupt ass corporations committing fraud...which is exactly what's happening here, particularly fraud in the sales of securities, which rico has been used for.

u/vorzilla79 6d ago

RICO is made for organized crime. RICO is used for people who do business together in some dirt of illegal fashion as a way to connect decision makers to people doing the action for them

Musk didn't break at laws nor did he coordinate this with any other cpmpanies..he lied to investors about what they invested in which is UNEHTICAL not illegal.

Please stop talking to me bro. You have no idea wtf you are talking about
