One suggestion: Add the date of TV interviews and other video snippets to make some things a bit clearer.
Dagogo please take this suggestion
Everybody please upvote this
@@hijack69 I see, you're a man of reddit as well.
Dagogo is one of my favorite content creators, but his biggest flaw in his videos are unclear timelines. Dates/years are needed.

Softbank Logic: "You're charismatic, here take my money!"
@@pacifico4999 If you find Business or Investing interesting, I'd highly recommend looking up Peter Lynch's lecture (or even read his book). It's like he hit the nail on the head on what was to come, he chose boring businesses to invest in, he didn't focus on the "individual" but rather the business. He is popularly known for having said, "Invest in a business that even an idiot can run, because eventually an idiot will". I'd also recommend looking up, "James E. Burke and the Tylenol Crisis - a Lesson in Crisis Management". This was a time when CEOs were not celebrities, they weren't judged on being charismatic - it was much a creation of Hollywood and its addiction with making iconic stories, the American spirit. However, a smart investor - they'll dig deeper, they'll discard the facade of the person that talks big and fast, they won't be sold on just charm. I'm not criticising Masayoshi Son for being drawn to charismatic CEOs, however it is becoming a cautionary tail. Just think of how much of an average swing a single tweet from Elon Musk causes towards his Publicly listed businesses, in my opinion - we should focus solely on the business and steer clear of the overly enthusiastic charismatic types.
@@pacifico4999 I will very much appreciate it, it's mind blowing the decision Mr. James E. Burke made at the height of what could've been possible the worst PR disaster; yet he persevered and was able to retain Johnson & Johnson's marketshare for Tylenol. Anyways, I do apologise for the rather long reply. I hope you find those subjects interesting, and do take care. Kind Regards.
I'd like to see you in a turtleneck
@@javidfarhan1675 As the Mitch Hedberg joke goes, "Wearing a turtleneck is like being strangled by a really weak guy, all day. Wearing a backpack and a turtleneck is like a weak midget trying to bring you down".
@@barfymann362 man you don't compare EM with charismatic type CEO he's a league of his own.
If you watch closely on his Twitter he said multiple times stock to high and on earnings call he explicitly told the day trader if volatility scares you sell our stock and buy it again.
It is completely opposite of your charismatic CEO here since they do care a lot more the share price while EM care more about the scale and improvements/innovations in that industry.
What I' ve learned form Wirecard and Theranos: If a CEO thinks he/she is the next Steve Jobs, he/she is probably quite the opposite
The media gets ahead of themselves and gives these ppl labels like Steve Jobs.

Soft Bank: Say no more fam!!
a billion dollars lmao
Soft bank: INVESTTTTTTTT!!!!!
Haven't heard the say no more joke in a few years
My stupid brain!!!! I read: "I am a CEO of a company and I swear Steve Jobs likes clothes..." and for a whole minute I was going like "wtf is this guy trying to tell me"
To be fair, it sounds like soft bank is under globalist control and they use their name to bump up these scam start ups so it grows big and its made finally to implode certain ones get huge profits, while rest like pensioners take the real hit, with out even knowing about it. If i were to invest my limited extra capital to stock, i sure as hell would not put it on anything that someone else tells me to put it. Its far safer to invest it property even though the return is less, but its physical object and at very least worth its weight in material alone. If it has utility purpose that is common like tool then it has utility value. Add age and interest.. now its far more valuable. Restore it, price jumps and if nothing else you have tool to use.
scam company: im a "tech" company
Softbank: ok here's 10 billion dollars
Maybe I should email SoftBank about pitching a company called "literally a tech startup"
@@josepharmstrong1531 make sure you include a picture of yourself in a turtleneck
Very good point, this company was audited for 8 years in a row by big 4 firms and the found nothing. Makes me question their competence.
I shouldn't be saying this but alot of the work is done by the inexperienced people, the ones who know what theyre doing usually just oversee it and it can lead to some poor work.
i worked for a few years at one of the big 4 firms and i'm not surprised that they supposedly found nothing. Bosses there often turned a blind eye to problems to satisfy or keep their clients even if it's wrong and against regulation.
Cash and bank are often given to the most junior member of the audit team to audit, as it is normally straightforward. Big mistake in this case.
If the CEO of a company dresses like Steve Jobs they immediately should be investigated
@Anonymous lmao I just noticed your comment, I'm late
Agreed.
probably because just like Steve Jobs they stink like a giant pile of poo
😂👍

Good rule of thumb: if softbank invests in it, sell.
their ceo has a talent for investing in fraudsters
Goldman Sach is a huge red flag
Conaidering their golden goose was Alibaba wich is clearly not about knowinv the market or even luck but deals with the CCP makes it more of a shit corporation.

It’s amazing how often all these smart people in the finance industry fail to spot crooks.
Apparently their minds turn off when they hear “A.I, machine learning, algorithms…”. I feel like simply on those words they change their assumptions in DCF and assume that company will have massive growth.
It's easier to fool someone than convince someone they were fooled. They think since they are big shots with knowledge so how could small time crooks fool them?
To many investors, it’s not about spotting the crook. It’s about knowing when to let go towards the end of a massive game of hot potato. Unfortunately not many investors have the sort of prudence to refuse investing in a sham.
Yes takes years to discover that is emperors Penis as he has no clothes on.
One in Singapore in 90s? a bloke from a council house was left in a back room unsupervised and un regulated because he was making money for them. Bonuses were being payed. Enron etc etc. UK is run by crooks in financial sector from top to outliers like lying Farage. Risk taken out profits assured. Capitalism is nowhere to be seen where risks and rewards act in balance. Onlyba revolution will change the system and the new one will soon be corrupt. Buy at least Xi whips their kidney out. We just let them go again or avoid prosecution in rare cases with expensive lawyers. US locks some up, if few. Uk just pats them on the back.
Financial times: "So why did you list a fake branch office in the Phillipines?"
Wirecard: "something something ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE"
Softbank: "sounds like a solid deal to me"
"Machine learning" i.e. Excel spreadsheet. lmao
windows notepad
I mean, if humans can be called machines I guess 😉
You can do linear regression on excel, so yeah
@@patternwhisperer4048 yeah so
Stating from his interviews, you could tell he had no clue what he was actually talking about. Throwing around fancy words as a distraction and selling point seemed to work surprisingly well though.
I find it more impressive that instead of AI, employees used excel to do something proficiently.
Thats just because excel runs through the veins of (german) business accountants.
@Scomo-maccas adventure i was going to say the same. If AI catches up to german instinct for this, they've arrived
It's just that there are so many more programs (with some for free) that does those jobs way better than what excel can do.
pretty much how AI is mostly being done these days in most companies. this guy wasn't the only one bullshiting, my CEO is doing exact same points (IT consultancy) and using Excel for AI/Big Data while the customers believe in something else. With cloud apps you will never disclose your crappy implementation, cloud is great for fraud and selling "air"
Proficiently? The company was a fraud and went bankrupt. What part of that was proficient?
Crummy companies live off spreadsheets. Not good ones.
At this point I’m surprised SoftBank didn’t invest in theranos
I know SoftBank seems to make a lot of bad investments, yet has plenty of money.
I'm impressed at how slick and professional this channel is. Its reports are as good as anything I've seen on the best known international TV stations. Congratulations!
I’m from Germany and I have never used or even seen wirecards “products” or services except from the news of course
For that German need to use debit / credit cards first.
Me too
@@anshuman2089 we use debit cards more than cash i believe

I hear HSBC is hiring
Company: Is *shady* but does "tech"
Softbank: "I'll take your entire stock!!!"
"He would even take out large loans with his shares as collateral"
Even?! That's absolutely a bog standard way of raising cash for equity billionaires
I know right? I found it to be a strange phrasing as well.
Still, there definitely is a level of absurdity in the status quo.
Softbank needs a video of their own... And if you've made one, then a sequel
@tingkai shi In the WeWork video he mentioned that he would make a Softbank video sometime. I reaaly want to see that as well
They have legitimately good investments too such as ARM, but yeah idk they seem to throw around a lot of money
Agreed lol
@@Swordhero111 maybe cuz they have a lot of em ..lmao
@@Swordhero111 I think arm was already developed
This company is also invested by Soft Bank like WeWork. Masayoshi Son really can't get a break.
Dude is too trusty
I think I will apply for a “loan” at his office. Seems he likes giving out cash and not wanting it back.
Idk, a quick google search tells me SoftBank runs the biggest tech fund in the world. They probably invest in every company that counts.
If he's this incompetent, then maybe he doesn't deserve to catch one.
I would laugh if SoftBank also invested in Nikola too. Probably still giving Bernie Madoff money for his fund.

OMG I worked for a Wirecard call center in Leipzig for about a week. It was horrendous. Had to do an UNPAID week long course on recognising fraud before being allowed to work there... By the way, "Braun" is pronounced "Brown" in German (and also means brown).

When a CEO wears a suit, he runs an evil company
When a CEO wears a hoodie, he runs a great tech company
When the CEO wears a shirt, he runs an innovative company
When a CEO wears a turtleneck and he's not Steve Jobs, he's a fraudster.
What do you mean, "evil" as in greedy?
"he/she is a fraudster"
I think you can leave out the "and he's not Steve Jobs" part.

Thankyou Dagogo. The music, your tone of voice. Calm and concise. I enjoy your work.
Hi Dagogo, thanks for this good content. Clear explanations and good sequencing. I've watched a few of your doccies and I haven't been disappointed. Thanks and well done!
Can you make a video on how firms are doing right now in which SoftBank has invested over all these years.?
I think it will be interesting to see
Actually SoftBank itself should do that, else if Confusion TV does it then they cud probably ask money from SoftBank for their work...u know SoftBank itself doesn't seem to be doing a good job at that...LoL
Im from munich. I have a lot of friends working there, still. Unanimous verdict: Scam from the start
Is it still working and issuing cards? As far as i know, Crypto.com european cards managed by Wirecard. Just wondering, what happens to them, when Wirecard finally stops operating.
@@GrigoriyMikhalkin My understanding is that these cards are issued by the Wirecard Bank. Which is its own company. So the funds there cant be touched by wirecard since going bancrupt.
Honestly I never believed this company (even when they still showed "great" numbers) - was way too suspicious to invest in them. At last my gut feeling payed out a bit.
MetallicReg Absolutely. Something didn’t feel right. With you on that.
@@felixseiler4467 I live in Munich as well! I was today at their office. The new CEO was there at 20:00 o'clock working. I was surprised to see that. What possibly can he do when the company is already done? :D Just a curious question which I don't insist you answer, I am just really curious - did the employees already get their first paycheck since the June crash? I heard they don't get paid.
When your CEO looks like the villain from Robocop, it's time to bail.
As a Payoneer customer I was directly affected by the scandal.
My debit cards couldn't work for about 4 days.
My friend's mom was due for a cancer treatment but because the funds on their cards were frozen too they couldn't go.
Sorry about the treatment thing, hopefully it got resolved quickly
Payoneer cards operated under wirecards UK subsidiary. There was no fraud at that subsidiary but the UK regulator froze it's activities , temporarily as a precaution. It's a shame you were impacted unnecessarily
this reminds me of the Steinhoff scandal we had in south Africa a few years back. like it's an international holding company that sponsored some of my University's sports teams but there was some clever accounting funny business. So somehow the company recovered and the CEO, also Markus (Jooste), is free with some court cases. No African millionaire's will ever go to jail (like they get to stay at home because of heart conditions or whatever)
The Steinhoff saga was a classic case of market manipulation. Hence Marcus Jooste is still a free man. It's a classic tactic used by major banks and firms everywhere every day
Rich people are above the law in South Africa and Africa in general.
its a good day when coldfusion uploads
Wirecard was using sftp to exchange financial information stored as csv files when I worked at a telco company that used them for all payments. That was 4 years ago, not early 2000s. That should tell you everything you should know about their “tech”
Thank you for a well researched presentation. It teaches Start Ups a lot about what goes on in the tech industry
I GOT AN AD BY A LAW FIRM TELLING ME TO CONTACT THEM FOR A CLASS ACTION LAW SUIT AGAINST WIRECARD IN THE MIDDLE OF THE VIDEO 😂😂😂😂
Nice
Every time i hear a stream of words including "innovative, machine learning, ecosystem, the future" I stop listening. Very clearly a scam. When people talk about the business models that really exist and really work, they speak in another way.
This is when it worth listening this is when you get ready to short sell
"Harnessing the power of AI and Deep Learning to provide Innovative Solutions" See shit like this all the time on billboards on the side of the highway, just a mess of stupid buzzwords
peopel love to listen bullshit, so it is widely provided.
there were legitimate businesses in the late 2010s which wanted to ride the machine-learning wave (including my current employer) to varying degrees of success. So back then, he wouldn't have been too out of place among other tech execs scrambling to add machine learning to something, be it their actual product or their process.
I can't get enough of your videos! I know there is surely a limit to how many you can do, how many you want to do, how many you can do the research on to make with the quality of info you do. That said, I want so much more than is realistic for me to expect or crave from you.
I also know that you take an outstanding measure to relay the facts of recorded history in a nonbiased true to what you find historical; fashion. Maybe those findings are part or fully conjecture/speculation historical recordings but you make it a practice to point out which is which while reporting on it so that we can make our own conclusions based on the recorded historical information.
I love your stuff and hope that you keep it up.
Thanks bro.Need to find some quick resume about the scandal.You did it really well.
Peace.
Hi I am from Brazil... and use TH-cam heavily since 2008 and I come forward to tell you that among all amazing Channels we got on YTB yours in my view is easily the BEST from the format narrative and also your minimalist view is amazing.
Congratulations for you outstanding job. Be proud of yourself because you deserve it!
Ohhh Muito obrigado Pelo conteudo!
Cheers!!!!
so true
Concordo
Even if the business were successful, I think comparing him - founder of a payment processing and banking company - to Steve Jobs is a bit absurd
I think you totally missed what dude was saying. Nothing about what he said was fanboying steve jobs. He was saying there wasnt much similar about the two.
Steve Jobs is synonym of success and innovation at this point. If someone says X is the new Steve Jobs it is a way of saying that X has the same potential to make everyone money. It's not literally about them beeing similar in personality or field.
Those people usually lean into it heavily because beeing compared to Jobs in any way, shape or form already creates some amount of trust and success. It's a free stock value booster, if you have to wear a turtleneck for a couple more % then so be it.
It's also about ego. Many of the CEOs in Cold Fusion fraud videos start to buy into their own propaganda. They actually believe they are geniuses before everything comes crashing down upon them. The confidence that gains them sells well.
Them starting to wear Turtlenecks is the tech world equivalent of wearing crosses in christianity. "I can do no wrong, i wear a cross and i am therefore holy."
Why? What was jobs more than really a personality? He rode on the coattails of smarter ppl e.g. Wozniak.
@@tuffasgong welcome to reality, a place where no one gives a shit about true acomplishements and only about appearanced.
In someways he sounds very like Steve Jobs from the 80s. Dude was a complete fucking tyrant. But at least he had a good idea, he was ruthless and uncompromising and a terrible human being for a long time in many ways but his business wasn’t based on fraud
One of my favorite channels if not the one. Thanks for all the efforts!
i am now addicted to your channel bro, the story telling and the background music are simply sublime
It is wild to me that a company who made their name acting as an acquirer for online casinos and porn sites could ever have made it this far into the game before real questions started being asked.
You rock ! Just 3 weeks ago i Watched WSJ short doc about wirecard and mentioned you by name, wondering whether you would make one hahah keep up the good works mate !

@Jay Talents True, only scammers wear black turtlenecks these days.
I watch this video at 2x speed, and the Bloomberg interview with Braun is amazing.
Hey Dagogo thank you for all the work that you do to make these videos. I enjoy your videos a lot. Speaking of that enjoyment this is another of those videos that I enjoyed. I see this happening at Corporations all the time. People want to accomplish more than their predecessor and will go to any lengths to do so. It's unfortunate to see since we can all do well when we do all that we are capable of doing. Instead of attempting to be someone else or surpass them.
I am excited for your next video and will be on the look out for it. (:
Because I am a terrible, horrible, rotten, awful person, there's nothing in life I enjoy more than seeing these kind of executives get humbled, humiliated, and embarrassed! It's fine to have a lot of money, but when you think that having the money entitles you to treat other people like your own personal whipping posts and playthings, that really gets to me.
Thank you for this video. I appreciate your unbiased presentation coupled with your polite demeanor, which is a pair of qualities in deficit on youtube.
Thank You for that very well made summary!
Hi Dagogo... my attention was drawn by your name. Sounds like names from the riverine parts of Rivers State. Glad to see someone from here doing great things. I really love your documentary series a lot. Thanks
Wow...looks like softbank can't just stop investing in disastrous startups
Well the issue is: that thing was not a "startup", but listed on the DAX, that's the German equivalent of being a member of the DJIA.
@@frankschneider6156 so was Enron!
Mr. Coldfusion,
I want to thank you for making this video. I’ve been following the Wirecard story since the begging it’s been hand hard to understand as US Bankruptcy law / Business Law is different. Also the idea of insolvency has never been applied her in the US.
Dagogo is a big tech enthusiast like myself.
I like that he tells a bit of the history of technology along with the history of the companies behind it and also that he is open-minded to dismantle the frauds and lies of capitalism, both with a broad critical view of the financial system and also under the magnifying glass, company by company.
The way the CEO answers the questions at around 06:40 you immediately know the guy has no idea, just empty words
So SoftBank's Mayoshi Son is actually a complete tool who simply spreads his bets.
Not the worst idea when it comes to tech companies, even if you bet on 10 and 9 collapse that one that remains is still gonna return a chunk of cash.
@@marcuschan3066 you mean some complete catastrophe like wework and wirecard?
Tools with billions, still a tool
Can you do a video on steinhoff. It’s known as the Enron of South Africa and Africa for how big they were globally and how the accounting scandals hurt the accounting industry in South Africa from being number one in the world to 7 Th
Truly enlightening! Thank you for the video.
As an investor if I hear the word "innovative", I would run
at Bambora we had the motto "Money are never missing"
Bambora is also an acquiring company acting as middleman between end customer and stores. So this is something that hits close to home.
The money's never missing eh? I highly doubt that!

I had the same question! I was there for that, and then…nothing.
Something very trivial here, having just watched a few of your videos, but your musical taste is great! Lots of bass house! 👌🏾
Great job done, weldone coldfusion
Hi! I'm from Philippines. I did not expect that my country was involved in this scandal.
Nice video though. Keep it up!
Ikr? I wasn't expecting Philippines to be involved in Western scandals of this sort but that was an interesting segment lmao
There are loopholes in every system and these people are very good in manipulating them.
Another GREAT VIDEO Documentary, Thanks so much
The amount of investigative journalism that cold fusion does makes me so fucking great full.
Very informative, great video. As discussed it is amazing that the regulatory bodies, like in 2007, continue to find it so difficult to do their job affectively.
Would be awesome to see a video about the impact that the free and open source software model had on the world. Not many people can appreciate its scale.
These vids are a god send painting my house binging! Cheers mate 👍
Very good reporting. You are doing a great job...
