Here's a question to all my #twitter peeps.... but some background first.
One of the first things you learn in M&A 101 is that the primary benefit of a share sale vs an asset sale is that an asset sale you get to leave behind liabilities and any potential unknown skeletons...
Now this is not true in all cases for example in Europe (my specific experience is Germany) if you acquire a going concern via asset sale employee obligations are carried over (that the simple version its way more onnerous).
But my question relates to what about when a company acquires an asset that's subsequent to acquisition its discovered that asset was previously used for the carriage of illegal activity. Say for instance a domain. What responsibility other than the obvious reputational risk.
could the new owner be exposed to?
oh and btw the illegal activity may be promotion of #childporn.

@ParrotCapital @JackInabinet @9thdecimal @Cryptadamist @MikeBurgersburg @ExkrementKoin @crypto1nfern0 @vidar_research @AureliusValue @AlderLaneEggs @Annihil4tionGod what we are witnessing is akin to what happens when a hacker targets a vulnerability in a system and is able to release malware and it causes havoc to its target.
@ParrotCapital @JackInabinet @9thdecimal @Cryptadamist @MikeBurgersburg @ExkrementKoin @crypto1nfern0 @vidar_research @AureliusValue @AlderLaneEggs @Annihil4tionGod There is literally hundreds of zero day attacks in crypto. But rather than addressing bad actors and patching vulnerabilities in the ecosystem. - they were embraced as innovation - literal onramps to the promised land.
@ParrotCapital @JackInabinet @9thdecimal @Cryptadamist @MikeBurgersburg @ExkrementKoin @crypto1nfern0 @vidar_research @AureliusValue @AlderLaneEggs @Annihil4tionGod The Signet walled garden is a perfect example - if a bad actor gets into your walled garden as soon as its flagged you excise them and patch the vunerability. If you don't they propagate and destroy your garden. Instead those who could have, should have taken action

@ThegreatLambiny @ParrotCapital @Bitfinexed @Cryptadamist @cryptoinformer0 @Annihil4tionGod Around the same time CZ had apparently come to the conclusion that #SBF was unhinged and wanted out. He allowed #FTX to publish false information about #binance (Miami Dade due diligence Stadium naming rights).
@ThegreatLambiny @ParrotCapital @Bitfinexed @Cryptadamist @cryptoinformer0 @Annihil4tionGod March 2021 Binance and Multicoin get fully loved up.
@ThegreatLambiny @ParrotCapital @Bitfinexed @Cryptadamist @cryptoinformer0 @Annihil4tionGod We love #binance sooo much we spent thousands of hours writing puff research pieces.....#binance the new #piratebay

Tomorrow I'll walk through my calculations as to how #tether was able to increase their reserves by $700m and then spruce it as a profit.
Until then here's a couple of points to ponder.
1. #nontokendebt - This is something I've broken out in every analysis I've done on Tether's attestations.
Its literally the most important in their numbers. Image
Non token debt is changes in cash.

I've been tracking #tether's attestations since they started publishing them.
I'd like to think that I provide more granular reporting then they do themselves.
I generally try to update the shared sheets and provide some commentary with a week or so of the attestations being released. I haven't had the chance to this quarter...as well I've had real world shit to do ....
I was kinda champing at the bit to write up a few tweet storms as all the fanboys were shilling the amazing $700m profit #tether had made in the Dec quarter alone....

@ParrotCapital @3TUSDPonzi @MikeBurgersburg @otteroooo @Bitfinexed @BinanceFraud Definitely not the worst jurisdiction. But you are probably more wrong than right in your perception.
@ParrotCapital @3TUSDPonzi @MikeBurgersburg @otteroooo @Bitfinexed @BinanceFraud But there is a reason why most of the licensed entities in these jurisdictions are less than 10 years old (in $ vol) and likely less than 3 years old (in terms of number of entities).
@ParrotCapital @3TUSDPonzi @MikeBurgersburg @otteroooo @Bitfinexed @BinanceFraud A conversation for another day. But if regulators really want to make a dent into fintech crime its not that hard.
you have to think like #gretzky
