In one of the discussions of the background of one of the founders of a cryto exchange, there is discussion of the person being predatory to teenage boys, and a few quotes from survivors of his abuse, about his abuse. Specific acts are not described. In the chapters Pig Butchering and "We have freedom", the investigates how some criminal groups kidnap and enslave people and force them to run cryptocurrency scams. He includes quotes from surviors about their experience and treatment, which is brutal. As for drug use- it seems like everyone in the crypto world is doing drugs. The author mentions it when he observes it. Nothing graphic.bellisk's review
