#TheCryptocalypseChronicles: I Made Epstein's Texts Great Again (And You Should Read Them)

I converted the text msg logs in the recently released 20,000 pages of Epstein effluence to a more friendly format and read them. You should too.

Here's a sneak peak of the kind of thing you will see. Live the vicarious thrill of a guy like Steve Bannon saying things like:

> "but that will all be reversed when regime falls"

to the 21 century's most notorious sex pest. Image

A thread where i will using the power of ctrl-F to dig up epstein emails about all things crypto.

Let's start with @JeremyRubin, the founder of a bitcoin research org called Judica and a player in the ill fated MIT digital currency initiative. Image

There's what looks like a 2015 pitch sheet (?) from #BlockchainCapital, co-founded by epstein's pal #BrockPierce who would go on to help launch Tether (a nation state sized money laundering machine) and EOS (1 of the biggest scams in history, ~$4bn)

Disgraced former head of the MIT Media Lab Joi Ito seen here telling Epstein that crypto is "like the internet" but the core team is in need of a bailout, which he used "gift funds" to "win this round".

epstein says "gavin is clever"

were those Epstein's "gift funds"? Image

i found a pretty fascinating trove of documents that detail one man's long and arduous 𝘬𝘢𝘮𝘱𝘧 to force #Tether to seize ~$3 million USDT that he lost to an address poisoning scam a few years back. Image
🧵2/Ω
Asif Ayub Patel was innocently attempting to purchase $3 million worth of gold bars from Northern Lights, a precious metals dealer based in Hong Kong that prefers to be paid in Tether, as any freedom loving Dubai resident is wont to do.

Unfortunately he was careless & got pwned by an address poisoning attack: scammer sends you some crypto from an address that starts/ends w/the same characters as the address you are trying to transact with and hopes you copy/paste from recent txns w/out checking. Image

Since #Israel attacked #Iran Tether has frozen 112 addresses on Tron and Ethereum.

- Collectively those wallets received ~$700 million USDT before being frozen
- The top 40 of those wallets are *all* on Justin Sun's Tron blockchain

Iranian exchanges mostly use Tron USDT. Image

Dune dashboard with all the historical Tether blacklist data for those two blockchains can be found here:

🧵3/Ω
#Nobitex, the largest crypto exchange in Iran (which is basically a Binance feeder fund, but I digress), openly advises its users on how to avoid sanctions via Tether USDT even though that is a blatant violation of all kinds of laws.

apparently Trump's #WorldLibertyFi wallet had a sudden huge drop off in its token holdings exactly as $TRUMP and #MELANIA were launched...

...and then right after $TRUMP weekend it suddenly had $400mm in assets despite selling <$200mm in $WLFI to JustinSun etc. Image
🧿2/Ω
full $WLFI dashboard from @seoulcalibureth:

🧿3/Ω
it really looks like a few days before the $TRUMP launch someone borrowed all $ETH from #WorldLibertyFi treasury, sent it to a bunch of different Coinbase accounts (sus?), and then it came back from #CowSwap trades post-TrumpCoin w/e.

also at least one peel chain. Image
