The near-bankrupt @GenesisTrading:4101 and its highly connected address (highly connected with @AlamedaResearch and @BlockFi as well) have been cashing out about 500M in the past 2 weeks pic.twitter.com/XlR74A1R7l

Alameda Research-related address effectively altruistically cashed out more than $130M $USDC not long time ago (they even did this today lol). pic.twitter.com/TEU2nYzPDU

EU Parliament MiCA lead @DrStefanBerger:
"FTX is not the failure of blockchain technology, but the failure and hubris of one person."
— Patrick Hansen (@paddi_hansen) November 30, 2022
"2 political demands.
1. MiCA should be passed as quickly as possible
2. It is desirable that a large number of states take example of MiCA."— Patrick Hansen (@paddi_hansen) November 30, 2022
Alexandra Jour-Schroeder, Deputy Director DG FISMA:
"We don't see FTX as a failure of crypto or blockchain per se, but as many failures of governance, controls, etc.
No company regulated under MiCA would be allowed to be organized this way"
— Patrick Hansen (@paddi_hansen) November 30, 2022
Steffen Kern, Head of Risk Analysis & Economics, ESMA:
"We currently see no significant risk of financial spill over into the wider financial sector. Interlinkages are comparatively limited, and the sector overall still comparatively small."
— Patrick Hansen (@paddi_hansen) November 30, 2022
Jour-Schroeder, Deputy Director DG FISMA
"What happened with FTX could lead to a tendency to move assets into personal wallets instead of holding them at exchanges, raising different kind of risks"
— Patrick Hansen (@paddi_hansen) November 30, 2022
Kern, Head of Risk Analysis & Economics, ESMA
"This market is by and large an offshore market. In many cases, we don't even know in which jurisdiction the assets are located, which doesn't make things any easier."

Is KuCoin bad too?
🧵 For ideological reasons, I would recommend staying away from KuCoin.
Recently, KuCoin has unilaterally frozen client funds at the request of TFL. The accounts these funds were in did not belong to TFL.
This sort of behaviour is simply not okay and deserves reprimand.

I have no information about KuCoin's solvency, and the issue I've described above affects a tiny minority of customers. Regardless, I am ideologically opposed to exchanges being accessories to extortion from private parties, especially malicious actors like Do Kwon.
— FatMan (@FatManTerra) November 30, 2022
Freezing customer funds is only in the vicinity of reasonable when it is mandated by law. Period. Freezing customer assets because someone you are in bed with asks you to is not only not okay, but is deeply worrying, and should be categorically condemned.
— FatMan (@FatManTerra) November 30, 2022
These incidents have not been made public. I was able to privately review evidence confirming that these freezes did indeed take place & were at the behest of non-LE third parties. KuCoin used the freeze to extort the account holders into sending money to a specific third party.
— FatMan (@FatManTerra) November 30, 2022
KuCoin have been eager & helpful in their communications with me in the past. I requested comment from them on this issue several times over the past month. Since then, they have stopped replying & did not provide comment.
IMO, refrain from using KuCoin. This behaviour is dirty.
