1/14 Celsius repeatedly represented that it was better than a bank, frequently using the hashtag “#unbankyourself,” and that Celsius customers could gain “financial freedom” by joining Celsius. Celsius explained on its website that “P2P,” which

From the latest #Celsius Coin Report:

Total Coin Liabilities: $4.7b
Equity: ($1.2b)

Taking the ratio of the two numbers we get:

Size of Hole: 25%

That is the value missing, and the remaining 75% is still in the estate. Image

Bankruptcy Law is clear.

Any plan, whether by TradFi or not, must return at least 75% back to creditors in order to meet the threshold defined in the clause below.

Anything short of that will not be approved by the judge. Image

So if 75% of the value is still there (not including the intangible value of the business, tech stack, and community), then any plan should provide at least 75% back.

Those creditors that are selling their claims today for the measly 15-17% are literally being scammed.

that 15,427 page #GK8 document filled with #CelsiusNetwork's creditors personal detail is quite an amazing document.
i have so many questions, but let's start with:

1. Why are there an enormous numbers of creditors in countries GK8/Celsius aren't supposed to do business with?
Corporate entities in the #CelsiusNetwork / #GK8 / #GK8Limited bankruptcy, pt. II. Noticed:

➤ Ernst & Young (maybe?)

2022 was the victim of many major #crypto crashes, but three of them stood out the most.

#LUNA\#LUNC | #FTX | #CelticFC

Here's a thread! 🧵👇
2- Let's start off with the infamous #TerraClassic, which saw its token at the time, $LUNA (now known as $LUNC) crash from $86 to under $0.01 in just 48 hours which caused $LUNA holders to lose a total of $60 Billion.
3- What happened? Well, over $2 Billion #TerraUSD $UST was unstaked from #AnchorProtocol and many millions of dollars swiftly became liquidated.

#TerraClassic still exists to this day and their community of #LUNAtics still believe in its future, but do you?

I love @MikeBurgersburg dearly, but he wasn't the the first to draw attention to problems at #CelsiusNetwork. I was, by more than 6 months. And he wasn't the first to declare Alameda insolvent, either. Again, I was. Why am I being ignored, @taylorlorenz? @washingtonpost
In April 2021, I wrote detailed threads about Celsius in which I took their terms of service apart, examined their published accounts, and analysed their marketing material. I warned people then that it was taking huge risks with people's funds and was possibly insolvent.
I took massive amounts of abuse from Celsians for these threads. Among other things, they accused me of being paid by Coindesk to discredit Celsius. I write for Coindesk, but I'm not employed by them. I would never do hit work for them or anyone else.

Don’t forget that #tether invested in #celsiusnetwork
Celsius banked with #deltec and cashed out #ftx for $150m just before the ship went down.

Although some of my funds got caught in #ftx as I thought they would be able to provide more liquidity I warn many people to remove most of their funds as I consider them to be crypto insolvent, was I delusional back then? @iTzAnthonyNap @otisa502 @CEL__100 #CelsiusNetwork 1/7 🧵

24- Multiple influencers started gaining a lot of followers & praising @SimonDixonTwitt while at the same time started attacking the #CELShortSqueeze looked extremely artificial. @TheFinancer
12/18
25- Both S. & @ThomasBraziel did not tweet or retweet @ FTX about naked shorting & instead attacked the #CELShortSqueeze cuz of coordination & for being illegal went this is retail & grassroots. While naked shorting which is x20 worst they are silent

26- Accused #CelsiusNetwork of being a ponzi which it isnt by any means
27- Accused the #CELShortSqueeze that it is a pump & dump which it isnt by any means & ignore all the manipulation happening

(1/3) The following is my proposed Celsius recovery plan I would like to share with @Mashinsky 🧵

1. Firstly, YOU MUST apologize to the entire community, and be upfront on what happened, we need the truth.

2. Communicate how much the damage is. Are depositers down 50%, 80%?
(2/3)

3. Publicize a recovery plan to make depositers hole using Celsius mining revenues over the coming years plus other revenue lines + access to equity

4. Let users withdraw with limited monthly allowance and fees, this is critical as many were dependent on Celsius rewards
(3/3) With a detailed recovery plan, Celsius should be able to make depositers whole and recover fully out of this. Bankruptcy is not the solution. Over and out.

1/ My dear Twitter friends, I gotta admit yesterday I've been scammed for about 500 USD worth of Ethereum. I want to share this with you because I'd like to protect anyone from these things.

I'm not rich so if anyone wanted to help me recovering I'd feel glad and blessed.
2/ And, most of all, nobody is 100% on internet, even if you think to be stronger or smarter than the scammers out there.

This is my story: I've found this website (that was perfectly cloned) about @sneakerheadsoff , which promised a free mint of an art NFT.
3/ The mint had only the fee of 0.25 ETH. I checked the Twitter and it seemed ok (also the Twitter was cloned and had more than 69k followers)
So I connected through the free mint contract and the contract always asked me for a higher amount than what I had.

I am old enough to remember Carillion calling its problems a "liquidity crisis" and asking HMG for a short-term loan to tide it over. It was actually so deeply insolvent that it couldn't even pay an administrator, so it went straight into liquidation.
Looking back further, I recall RBS insisting its problems were due to "liquidity shortages", as the value of its assets crashed and it slid deeper and deeper into insolvency.
And even further back, Northern Rock tapped the Bank of England for "emergency liquidity assistence" when markets refused to fund it. It, too, turned out to be insolvent.

@CelsiusNetwork - Risk Assessment

- Minimal exp to #UST (Pulled out of #Anchorprotocol early following risk mitigation process)
- No directional exp to #luna
- No forced selling of stETH at discount (withdrawals paused & @Mashinsky stated 'plenty of ETH').

#CelShortSqueeze
1/
ON stETH:
- Current Discount is 5.4% (and closing) on ~$400M-$500M = ~$25M
- Discount represents ~0.25% of $10B in AUM.
- Discount likely has a floor (arbitrageurs/speculators will intervene as PoS date approaches).
- Plenty of FUD online around this low risk exposure.

2/
- Over-collaterized retail lending (no risk)
- Nearly 100% collaterized institutional lending (including potential loans to #3AC directly or indirectly)
- On-chain borrowing is known & public. Liquidation levels have been lowered/loans repaid (situation stabilized)

Fact check: Did @CelsiusNetwork actually purchase $CEL to distribute last monday?

Yes they did, on FTX, OKEx, Bitfinex and Gateio. As far as I can tell based on blockchain data, the following wallet analysis clearly indicates that they did!

1/3
#Celsius #CELshortsqueeze https://explorer.bitquery.io/ethereum/address/0xdb3165196768
I can't guarantee anything, but the collection address (blue, center, etherscan.io/token/0xaaaebe…) was last used solely to collect $CEL from exchanges and send it to Celsius Wallet 5 (CEL user balance wallet).

2/3 https://etherscan.io/token/0xaaaebe6fe48e54f431b0c390cfaf0b0
Even better, more $CEL have already been purchased since last friday! So I assume @CelsiusNetwork still has funds to purchase the weekly $CEL.😎🚀

This is just my analysis, not financial advice.

Feel free to retweet if you agree 😉

Did we? Did we just drain all $CEL out of gate.io (-97.4%)? Hell we did!😎😂

Update for $CEL on major CEX, now approx 8.16M in total (-1.56 million $CEL compared to 06/18/22, 1100UTC, awesome 🚀🚀🚀)

#CELshortsqueeze #Celsius #CelsiusNetwork Image
on FTX, the shorters are under heavy pressure too!

CEL_PERP: Open interest 13’421’900 CEL, funding rate -0.1406% (1231% APY)

Interest rate for $CEL borrowing on FTX: 2600%, CEL borrowed: 4.074M

#CELshortsqueeze Image
@gate_io Would you be so kind as to let us know if you have any other $CEL addresses?

Wallet1: etherscan.io/token/0xaaaebe…, 6950 CEL

Wallet2: etherscan.io/address/0x7793…, 0 CEL

Wallet 3: etherscan.io/address/0x1c4b…, 0 CEL

Crypto winter is freezing. @CelsiusNetwork is likely insolvent. Giant #cryto hedge fund is liquidating.

Here is what's happening: 🧵
4 things impacting crypto markets:
1. Macro - increased inflation and rate rise are having a magnified impact on high risk assets like crypto.
2. Celsius catastrophe - it's likely insolvent
3. @binance halting $btc withdrawals - spooked the market
4. 3AC liquidating
Celsius liquidation is a big deal because:
1. Causes forced selling of assets at distressed prices from many market participants.

2. Contagion. Plummeting prices are causing margin calls for everyone. 3AC is an example.

2. Another black eye for crypto.

2/17 “I want to give you some tips on top of what you’ve already seen. Now, you may have seen this video by this anonymous guy that talks about how #CelsiusNetwork’s CEL token is ripe for a short squeeze. If you’ve already seen that video, congratulations. If you haven’t, there’s

This Lido fiasco has created a mess of everything and for no reason, ETH is suffering, and most importantly users

There are different versions of this story but more or less it's close to what I could analyze
2/
This liquid staking concept i.e, the derived asset itself works as a full-fledged tradeable asset with other utilities like lending, staking, etc.

It's more like the US housing market collapse in the 2000s
3/
Here is one version of the story:

At Lido, stake ETH and get stETH in a 1:1 ratio. Now use that stETH for other purposes

On the other hand, Lido generates money using stETH through lending/borrowing, arbitrage, and other trade opportunities

So far so good

¿Cómo evitar quedarte atrapado en liquidaciones y bloqueos como lo ocurrido con Celsius?

Hoy vengo a daros unos pequeños tips que podéis seguir antes de invertir vuestro capital en cualquier proyecto cripto, en especial NFT.

Dentro 🧵 Image
1. Términos y Condiciones (T&C)

Los T&C son un conjunto de reglas y normas que los clientes debemos aceptar para comprar un bien o contratar un servicio.

Estos, solemos aceptarlos al crearnos la cuenta en la plataforma o al contratar el servicio, si no es necesaria la cuenta.
2. ¿Por qué son importantes?

Porque son un contrato de adhesión que una vez aceptados, quedamos sometidos a merced de lo establecido en los T&C.

Es decir, son la base jurídica que rige sobre todo el proceso de compra, pago, depósito de fondos, earn, etc.

看到 @cryptoprag 总结得底部信号指标比较好,记录一下:

1. 大机构爆仓✅
看看 #3AC #CelsiusNetwork #LFG , 虽然后者还不清楚是不是主动作恶,还有之前也爆掉的一些知名大户,身边活了多年的老韭菜居然也有归零的...
后续看看明牌的萨瓦尔多,微策略,特斯拉等会怎么反应...
2. 行情极度的无聊❌
还有人到处去肝白,撸毛
需要等到白没人接,白mint直接亏,free mint gas不舍得花了
毛被反撸(等着看奥德赛)
OG唾手可得
公募无人参与,目前是易破发
项目方懒得做新盘,项目量锐减
目前是一二级倒挂,一级融资还是不断,不过这可以视为行业进步吧
3. SMA200 周线打破❌

4. 散户失去兴致✅
目前看之前稍微有点新意的项目都能几千万U估值,目前大部分突破5M都困难
谁帮我回忆下,18/19的明星项目冲到大几十倍顶部估值是多少?

#TetherIsInsolvent, part 2. this is a followup to analysis @patio11 (link) and i did independently showing #Tether must be insolvent based on Tether's stated financials due to the crypto selloff. But this time... it's about foreign exchange rates. kalzumeus.com/2022/05/20/tet…
On May 19th #Tether announced that it had reduced its commercial paper reserves by $4.3B between 2021-12-31 and 2022-03-31 and that they had reduced their paper another 20% ($4B) since that March 31 "attestation" was done. Here's their press release:

@ZekeFaux did some (maybe pulitzer-worthy) reporting for Bloomberg in Oct '21 where he reported he could not find anyone at a major bank who had sold tether any paper, and further that he had seen documents stating that at least some % of tether's paper was from Chinese companies

The reason @CelsiusNetwork is not at risk is that they are responsible for #crypto commodities not valuations. They provide liquidity to markets in the form of a commodity.

The value of the commodity decreasing doesn’t matter.

1/15
In fact, outside of #Luna and its #UST pair, the underlying commodity #CelsiusNetwork has is still the same.

And the yield it provides is a commodity relationship — not a valuation one.

Thus, users receive a stable amount as yield because the yield contract is stable.

2/15
If I offer you sugar on an exchange and the price goes down on it, I still own my sugar. Someone else may have determined my sugar is worth less — but that’s not the risk at hand.

The commodity itself is intact.

I've updated the #tether attestation #googlesheets analysis. A few changes including fixing a glaring error 😳 #commercialpaper analysis h/t to @accountantInc catching the mistake. Document consolidates all reported quarters to date >>> bit.ly/3Kzkjz2
The #tether #commercialpaper section has been expanded/updated to show not just the net changes but the new issues/rollovers etc....
The purpose of the #commercialpaper analysis was to highlight that the reported $6.4B reduction in CP was only half the story....and it kinda shits me that the numbers are just trumpeted by most news as is...
