Liaw is family and it is not possible for a company like this to separate family from company interests.
He is clearly unwilling to change, so, Super Micro is just going to die a painful death.

Huh?
Buying BTC at 110%+ of value was never a good idea.
Super Micro will be fine. Felony charges are trendy with US CEOs these days.

What justification is there for employee jail time?

The good news jail time for a founder is sounding quite possible.

If you're helping break federal law and you know about it, you should go to jail.
That's what I presume the "contributed to this" meant, this=this crime
Some extreme double standards?
