- Non US #CoinFlex / CoinFLEXdotcom telegram pinned msg: ⚠️SCAMS⚠️
- MarkLamb (?) in weird "coiinflex" grp (May)
- so many deleted users in official channel

More of CoinFLEX_US telegram channel the only one with humans... confused and abandoned humans. #CoinFLEX responses are weird until they seem to vanish. @CoinFLEXdotcom
@CoinFLEXdotcom withdrawals halted; mods (maybe #CoinFLEX employees?) deleting messages, $USDC liquidity pool issues (tied to $FLEX, maybe?)
@CoinFLEXdotcom announcements contains notice of issues way back on June 14th, well before the withdrawal halt announcement by #CoinFlex... then promises more info tomorrow, June 27th.
i'm not optimistic about that new information...
@MarkDavidLamb being shady with his desperate users on the day withdrawals were officially halted on 6/23. of course the earlier telegram chatter makes it seem likely withdrawals were halted much earlier.
There seems to be active discussion re: #Coinflex / @CoinFLEXdotcom in a Chinese language Telegram channel called "coinflex_official". no idea if it's official because i cannot read chinese, but if you or someone you know does maybe poke around in there? t.me/coinflex_offic…
if you haven't followed the #CoinFLEX drama catch read about it on reddit.
tl;dr: pattern of facts suggests $90M in $BCH disappeared from the backing pool of @CoinFLEXdotcom's "stablecoin" $FLEX... only to appear in @binance where selling began.
and if you think i'm exaggerating you haven't been paying attention. the taxpayer bailout of the crypto industry is already well underway. wpr.org/news/wisconsin…
they've already drafted the federal legislation to pump most of a trillion dollars into bitcoin under the delusional fairy tale of "paying down the national debt" (lol) lummis.senate.gov/press-releases…

Thread for those who don't have the intestinal fortitude to sit through the Elmo / Rogan interview.
🧵2/Ω
Both these guys seem to regard the FBI asking (not forcing) "old Twitter" to take down some tweets as a crime against humanity roughly on the scale of the Stalin's gulags.
Rogan: "We were headed down a path of censorship and of control of narratives that is UNPRECEDENTED."
🧵3/Ω
The comparison to Stalin is not my hyperbole. Later in the interview Elmo will compare NY DA Alvin Bragg to Lavrenti Beria, the head of Stalin's secret police and one of history's greatest monsters.
i find it at least curious that this announcement of such a massive capital raise came just a few days after we got confirmation that the Treasury Dept is considering freezing Tether's assets and the DOJ is investigating them...
1/ anyone heard of #ChipperCash, an #FTX funded african fintech that had at one point almost $700 million deposited at Silicon Valley Bank? the funds were split up across like 10 accounts so the name didn't come up when $SVB's top depositors were a hot topic...
2/ Funds were in accounts labeled as "Deciens Chipper Cash SPV" 1-N. based on the total amount roughly matching the below tweet it seems like those funds somehow came from #Nigeria's government?
3/ Which in turn makes me wonder if this is stolen Nigerian oil money being laundered through SVB @mikulaja have you heard of this apparently kind of large fintech company?

A thread about the recent connection of what WSJ calls “the shadow dollar that’s fueling the financial underworld” and the Trump campaign (basically a 🧵 version of my pinned tweet).

Some background: there’s a NYC based financial firm called Cantor Fitzgerald whose CEO is a man named Howard Lutnick. Lutnick became somewhat infamous in the aftermath of 9/11 for cutting off payments to the many Cantor employees who died in the World Trade Center.
🧵3/Ω
Lutnick has two roles that matter for the purposes of this 🧵. The first is he was recently made the co-chair of the Trump transition team, meaning if Trump wins Lutnick will be choosing who will run things like the Dept. of Justice, Defense, etc. thehill.com/homenews/campa…

I have videos of these screenshots but the frame rate is broken and i'm too lazy to correct it right now, but Uzbekistan's #Agrobank hired Brock Pierce's favorite lobbyist and went to meet Ted Cruz and went to the White House:
