I think that is just how everyone gets there payoffs these days - not in briefcases in parking lots, but in tips - and nothing happens to them when they get found out. Everyone just puts in money into a pot, and makes their beats - apparently I read, don't know it its right, but someone said that the crowstrike put options will make the person about a billion dollars - that is more than the company is worth - in fact, you could just burn down a company from the inside - if your company is worth a few million, just bet to destroy it and then destroy it  -although honestly, I don't think crowdstike is going anywhere - they are too networked. They will keep getting those valuable contacts. 

About Hotez, its every-time with these people - sooner or later they are happy with making you do what they want with a gun. It is just a matter of when. 

Thanks!
