🚨 #CryptoCom is who $MCB is banking fren... All that USD flowing into and out of the American banking system seems to pass through them. And they are STILL banking #CryptoCom according to #CDC's own site.
🧵4/Ω
If you think that $MCB is going to be spared the coming regulatory crackdown on #Binance (and thus #CryptoCom) who were just alleged by #CFTC to be trafficking in money for Iran and various terrorist groups... gl
🧵5/Ω @FDIC_OIG / @SECGov when you're behind the absolute clown car of a regulatory body known as @BaFin you can be said to have totally failed on #CryptoCom. @BaFin is literally on the side of the criminals most of the time. (see: #Wirecard)
🧵7/Ω #CryptoCom got chased out of Germany but hey at least they just got a license to operate in Dubai, which is where all reputable international monetary businesses end up eventually.

German reporting on what is going on with #CryptoCom.
1. they lied and claimed to be outsourcing KYC/AML to a German company 2. they forgot to tell that company 🤡 3. @BaFin, which only moves quickly to persecute journalists, almost did something 🤡 financefwd.com/de/crypto-com-…
@bafin oops I should have been tagging @Bafin_Bund 👆, the absolute clown car of an agency that rushes to prosecute journalists in defense of frauds.

Because The Privatized Public Square AKA "bird app" is weird and impossible to navigate I will just retweet this piece about why anyone doing business with #CryptoCom is headed for disaster again.

Surely it's just a coincidence that $2 billion worth of #Tether was printed at what was probably the exact same hour on the same day the US government moved to dump $212 million in Bitcoin onto the market at #Coinbase and half of that was $USDT accepted in $COIN's market?
1. You can't withdraw crypto. 2. Or use ACH payments. 3. Or a debit card. 4. Also our #ApplePay just got terminated 5. Wire transfer is green but wires only work during business hours aka "not right now"
Happy trading all you cute #Binancians! Let's post some fun memes about how all our money is gone forever!
Just to clarify it's only *some* crypto they admit you can't trade: $BUSD.
Also all of this is just temporary. I'm sure #BinanceUS will find a new banking partner "soon". After all it's only taken #Binance what, 70 days to find one?
$MCB sends out hail mary press release about their strong financial position as of yesterday (morning or afternoon? Funny you don't say...) at the end of a day their stock crashed almost 30%.
🧵 just to thread up this incredibly astute observation by @SEC_digger about which numbers $MCB chose not to update from where they were on Dec. 31st, 2022:

It's interesting to look at what #CFTC is asking the court for in the #Binance complaint:
1. Stop all trading immediately 2. Give us all the money 3. Actually give us more than all the money 4. Including salaries of all executives (lol @prhillman) 5. Jury trial
@prhillman 6. No one associated with #Binance in any form should ever be allowed to trade commodities, futures, or other derivatives in the American market ever again ("permanent injunction")
* small correction: @PRHillmann is Binance US's CSO not CEO
🧐 @FDICGov's press release makes it sound like First Citizens Bank took all the loans that #SiliconValleyBank had on its books.
But... it did not.
$90 billion in toxic loans were left behind.
Cost to taxpayers currently estimated at $20bn but it will rise.
@FDICgov 🧵 Much of what is being written about #SVB is just as wrong as what's being printed right now about Citizens Bank "buying Silicon Valley Bank".
To be clear: $SIVB had $90 billion in loans so toxic no one would buy them.

Couple weeks ago #Binance stopped letting anyone post to r/binance on @Reddit and said they would limit comments to the "Daily Discussion" threads. (Conveniently that meant no one can see what mods deleted on #reveddit.)
@Reddit 🧵 Also because #Binance's fans on Reddit are so numerous and lucky there have always mysteriously been exactly 888k #Binancians subscribed to r/Binance on Reddit.
Now for some reason there are 889k...
🧵3/Ω
I made a thread last month about the kind of threads the mods of r/Binance were deleting.
This is the kind of information the switch to "Daily Discussion" threads gets rid of.
