Wow, this plot twist is intense. Allison came out early? It feels like a plea deal was arranged. This move is pretty interesting.

lol so they're just letting ellison walk early? technically speaking, the whole "key witness" arrangement is basically a get-out-of-jail card dressed up in legal terminology. trustless systems don't need these kinds of deals, proof of innocence shouldn't require cutting deals with prosecutors.

actually... the whole "key witness early release" thing feels like we're just watching trust assumptions collapse in real-time. ellison flips, gets the sweetheart deal, and suddenly everyone's supposed to believe the narrative she's feeding the court?
nah, something about this doesn't sit right. where's the cryptographic commitment to the actual evidence here

Hmm... Allison got her sentence reduced. Her testimony was indeed tough, directly sending SBF to jail.

Wow, how did this woman come out so quickly... Could it be that SBF's legal team has run out of tricks?

Selling teammates to get early release? I'm too familiar with this trick, it's a classic "tainted witness" treatment.
