Quite the thread; so tags first.

Where to start with this one. I guess first some background information on one of the biggest frauds of the Dot-Com bubble in Germany: Infomatec.

This was a company that was basically pumping its shareprice with "ad-hoc announcements", meaning literally just lying. ImageImage
Now, after reading some articles today on Bitfinex's CEO, i thought i'd have a go at trying to find out more about this guy. A quick google came up with a reddit post people probably have seen before, attached below. I've also reattached the linkedin profile that link leads to. ImageImage
Rather then trying to figure out where the guy is now, i thought maybe his past gives more away. Since there are 3 companies listed aside from Bitfinex, i tried looking for all 3.

The first and third company were a wash. But the second one - Tuxia - gave a hit.

A Trademark.
What is of interest here, is that it lists the party name and address. It's notable that the trademark expired because of lack of response by 2002 - the reason for that will become obvious soon.

What is of interest here, is that it lists the party name and address: ImageImage
So it turns out the full name is Tuxia Deutschland GmbH (or Tuxia Germany GmbH). And it lists an address.

So i went looking for the adress. A healthcentre pops up: Image
Now, i haven't called them to ask how long they've been in that building. But, their main site lists that they've been operating since 1998.

I'll make no call on whether or not Tuxia ever actually occupied the building; but with this stuff i'll track down every lead i can. Image
It's noticeable, atleast.

So i searched on, only this time with the full company name. And here's where the plot thickens.

Because *the first article* that comes up from 2001 is this one: Image
OH DID THEY NOW?!

I may not have bought/sold a business, but i *do* know you don't do that sight unseen. Even more interesting that the financial details of a deal with a MASSIVE fraud weren't disclosed at the time.

So the search is on!
Now - i did find supposed former employees of this company.

I'm not gonna Dox them - i've got more style then Tether employees - But enough to say i could track one of them down and he's listed as working at Tuxia until 2003.

So i looked at the company strictly. The registrar: Image
That gives us a timeline. I haven't found articles past that date. i did find more.

And it's in these articles that i find something else interesting. Because it took quite a while before i found out what this company actually did.

Turns out, embedded linux applications. Image
...But hang on.....

.....Where have i seen that before....

....Oh. Image
So what he's listed as Co-founder of a company that did business with frauds that was only incorporated for 1.3 years half a world away i hear you say.

That doesn't prove anythi....

....Oh. Image
So. Maybe the #German regulators wanna have a little chat with the Bitfinex's CEO along with the US. I don't know what the expiry date is for fraud, but i'm pretty sure they'll want atleast an interview.

Oh... And maybe, the #Chinese wanna have a lil chat with him as well: ImageImage
And a word of warning to future frauds:

It's always the ego that brings you down. Can't help but brag about past achievements.

I don't have to know what Jan (or Jean)'s real name is. All i need to know is what he's done.

Then we find somebody who did the same, name be damned.
I couldn't find a website, or personnel photos. So i'm no closer to finding out "who" he is.

But... I *do* know which gentlemen to ask.

If *they* can be found.
@PalisadesRadio @goldsilver_pros @GoldTelegraph_ @TheEarlyStage @WallStreetSilv @ThHappyHawaiian @crasl7 #fintwit Image
Welp. This atleast confirms that he's real.

And it also confirms he had dealings with Infomatec.

The internet doesn't forget. How would y'all like to see a younger Jean Louis?

#Tether watch!

#Bitcoin tagged a $94K handle because the cartel needed some USD. We're sorry for the inconvenience this caused (thanks for the $1B in liquidations though).

The peg was restored and we'll return you to your regular slumber forthwith. Image
USDT:USD on Kraken can only spike if somebody throws a bunch of dollars at it, which means somebody is buying Tethers with dollars en masse. Not the behavior of somebody trying to rapidly get out of crypto, it'd be the other way around.

And why not buy USDT with BTC directly?
Cause it's all a fraud anyway. Kraken's orderbook until a deep de-peg is only $7 million deep. And USDT/USD is tied for biggest volume on Kraken with BTC/USD. Which has $15M to clean out the book until $500 lower (can't check further). This is all very shallow. Image

#Tether watch!
BREAKING: 🚨Binance continues to abandon the TRON blockchain!🚨

They've done another $500M chainswap and are now up to $5B chainswapped THIS MONTH!

They were already adding USDT on ETH via the Kraken prints/chainswaps, but they accelerated it after the election. Image
Image
Image
Below top 100 holders on TRON now hold 82.5% of supply, and that'll increase if Tether swaps more/burns what's in the treasury.

Without Cold 3 which is backing BSC-USD tokens on the BNB chain, Binance has LESS THAN $1B USDT LEFT in their wallets *in the top 100*. Image
Image
On ETH, wallet #9 called Binance 74, *has more USDT in it than Binance has across ALL its hot wallets on TRON*. Image

#Tether's done $1.4B in 2 days at 0%, so Saylor had best hurry up if he wants to keep pace with their rate of printing. $3.5B just this week alone. Especially since Tether's still at a high premium so they'll print way more. Infact they're printing hundreds of millions right now. Image

Meanwhile, Cumberland over on ETH also putting millions into Coinbase and Kraken.

Kraken's order book to get USDT/USD down to par - because they're giving USD to Tether so they should get USD back from the market - is ~$3.1 million.

It should arb down like it's nothing. Image

Jesus christ, calm the fuck down. #Tether's premium's hit $1.0023 on CMC, a full 10x above the minimum arb. Highest price since March atleast (though it's down a bit since i started making the thread). Image
This happening while Binance does another $2B "chainswap" from TRON to ETH. To be fair, it was done a while after the runup started. Printer's started up on TRON again, including a Bitfinex TRON to ETH chainswap.

Second one in a few days:
Image
Image
Obviously i trust these swaps as far as i can throw them, though i've got no idea what they mean.

If i were to speculate - maybe the cartel is using the Trump pump as cover to ditch Justin Sun. Obviously, Binance is too important to let fail. And Justin is a ticking time bomb.

#Tether watch!

I don't know who needs to hear this, but the vast majority of USDT holders+USDT on TRON are fake, and i'm tired of pretending they're not. Over the past year, accounts holding USDT on TRON have gone from 26 million to 43.6 million in straight linear fashion. 🧵 Image
How come the transfer accounts and counts stay the same at the same time that number of accounts have nearly doubled; with only a 50% increase at best in transfer amounts? Image
See the thing that's bothering me is this bar, this bar right here officer👇

Usually, the straight crypto scams have got a large concentration on a few accounts. With Tether, Binance has that concentration as the largest holder, but...

Their percentage holdings haven't gone up. Image

#Tether/#Justinscam watch!

BREAKING: Justin Sun steals another ~$60M from #HTX customers with Tether's direct help, and #Binance money laundering to try and hide it. I just happen to catch it pretty much live so it was fast to track. Observe. 🧵 Image
$60M (rounded) freshly redeemed Tethers, because ETH's quiet so it's not a chainswap.

It's notable because it came *directly* from Binance. Which is a giant proof that says "NOT ALL redemptions come via Bitfinex".

Keep that in mind when looking at all treasury ins in 3 months: Image
Anyways, as always, we follow the money. I've gotten Tronscan to work reliably by limiting dates across which hot wallets scan, and with this being short term, it's real easy.

Lets see if we can find any large transfers in around/near the redemption shall we? Image
