1/4) Reading between the lines @cameron letter concerns me deeply by drawing an analogy between @DCGco & #FTX.

Entertain me for a couple of tweets…

“Related party undisclosed loan”

Sounds like Alameda <> FTX loans
2/4) “Used to do a share buy back”

Sounds like the #FTX share buy back of @cz_binance shares.

“Do some crazy venture investment”

Sounds like #FTX venture investing

“Pump the #GBTC AUM & value”

Sounds like pumping $FTT
3/4) “You didn’t borrow? You did a promissory note?”

That’s the mechanism Alameda used to lend money to @FTX_Official executives & @SBF_FTX

I had to call out #Celsius

CZ had to call our #FTX

Cameron & others I respect are now calling out #DCG
4/4) I’m prepared for the worst in case we don’t hear about significant funding to #DCG in the next week or two. Happy to be proven wrong as this is going to hurt the #Bitcoin market, including retirement plans that hold #GBTC & can’t redeem to #BTC without SEC allowing it.

It’s official. #Celsius was an illegal bank. Judge Glenn has ruled that Earn is property of the estate cases.stretto.com/public/x191/11…
"For the reasons detailed below, the Court finds, on the evidence before it, that the Terms of Use formed a valid, enforceable contract between the Debtors and Account Holders, and that the Terms unambiguously transfer title and ownership of Earn Assets deposited into Earn…
Accounts from Accounts Holders to the Debtors. The Court also finds that stablecoins, like other Earn Assets, are property of the Estates and the Debtors may sell the stablecoins outside of the ordinary course of business to provide liquidity for these Chapter 11 proceedings."

#Celsius service was referred to as “securities” lending rather than “secured” lending. Secured lending means you hold the coins in custody to sell if loan goes wrong. Securities lending means you use the collateral to invest & can back loan by a security known as Rehypothecation
“We search for yield” means coins are used to make a range of investments meaning they are selling a security which diversifies. That’s a fund that is subject to securities laws - registration, suitability & disclosure requirements are required. That’s not collateralized lending.
“Were like a bank, but not a bank” - They are like a bank as they rehypothecate, own coins & sell securities. They are not like a bank as they don’t have the licenses, oversight or protections of a bank or broker. That’s worse than a bank, not better than a bank. IMO that’s fraud

Better requesting things that help creditors level the information curve with bidders rather than dirty laundry that divides creditors. If you were on the last #Celsius #UCC Town Hall you know what I’m talking about. 🍋 #CreditorsFirst
Thanks for your hard work for creditors @camcrews - In case you missed the Town Hall twitter.com/i/spaces/1vOxw…
