Let’s put it in perspective, 100k isn’t bad for an unemployed 30 year old.

You might have some valuable collectible memorabilia from your childhood in a developing country. Progressives use canned haggis as display pieces on their coffee tables, to signal their solidarity with the disadvantaged.

Could a congressional subpoena even result in any punishment? I presume so, but no idea.

They really ought to put a cap on how much people and corporations can donate to political parties.
I’d be happy with zero dollars, however that might be unrealistic

Presumably, a subpoena can lead to a criminal referral by the committee. Then it's up to the DOJ to decide whether to prosecute.
Nice that SBF won't be called, so that, should he refuse to testify, he doesn't have to suffer the indignity of being held in contempt of congress and being jailed just like
Lois LernerEric HolderSteve Bannon.(Insert GIF of Waters blowing a kiss to SBF here: _______________)

I just presume that “they” will charge him, and he will go to jail. Not sure who “they” is, maybe they are a he/she.

I'm waiting for more information before making any judgments. But at this stage, I can't help but feel that SBF is a jerk.

Federal prosecutors will almost certainly charge him at some point and congressional hearing would not really facilitate that process anyway.
Assuming the hypothetical scenario where we had a functional Congress, the utility of hearings would be to help Congress determine what kinds of regulations might be necessary for crypto.
In the world we actually live in, hearings are just an opportunity for members to perform in front of the cameras.
