PSA to journalists + market commentators
It’s time to stop putting @BlockFi in the same bucket / sentence as Voyager and Celsius. Two months ago we looked the “same”. They shut down and have impending losses for their clients.

Hey Meltem ?
Just fyi – BlockFi directly holds zero GBTC. The Bloomberg data on this is outdated. We have a couple small loans (like sub $10M) w/ GBTC as collateral that are in the process of winding down

Sadly, our good faith to cooperate with the Liquidators was met with baiting. Hope that they did exercise good faith wrt the StarkWare token warrants. pic.twitter.com/CF73xI8r6n

Today is a hard day for OpenSea, as we’re letting go of ~20% of our team. Here’s the note I shared with our team earlier this morning: pic.twitter.com/E5k6gIegH7

FUD much? Look at the fucking balance sheet. They have over $10b in deposits for under $10b in customer liabilities. Unlike other crypto companies that are non-public they have to report this accurately and follow GAAP (generally acceptable accounting practices).

‘Spreading panic’
Our threat intel detected a potential exploit on Uniswap V3 on the ETH blockchain. The hacker has stolen 4295 ETH so far, and they are being laundered through Tornado Cash. Can someone notify @Uniswap? We can help. Thankshttps://t.co/OV3g7ayf77

This seems like an incredibly irresponsible thing to tweet, it was a phishing campaign, not an exploit of Uniswap v3 codehttps://t.co/aN7fNBga1Y

Let’s agree to disagree. I personally think when you have an audience of 6M people you should not go around spreading panic without verifying your story first.

GameStop is set to do more NFT volume in their first 48 hours than Coinbase NFT has since launch…
We live in a weird world.

If you don’t buy even a MODICUM of the dip, and you are in crypto, then you are bad at crypto.
Buy some BTC, buy some ETH, and then look back with pride when the bull market arrives. Also stop eating ground chicken. It’s dangerous.

Actually yes, I would sell the bank for anything if regulators let me sell it. My main goal is protecting customers.
