The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission late Thursday released a 55-page document detailing various charges of fraud against Do Kwon and Terraform Labs, the company Kwon founded to develop the Terra blockchain. Broadly, the SEC alleges that Kwon and others “engaged in a scheme to deceive and mislead investors … in the U.S. and abroad.” Indeed, the SEC’s findings paint a much clearer picture of the entire Terra system as a fraud, one just as elaborate and calculated as Sam Bankman-Fried’s FTX,

How to get $BLUR airdrop for free. An autopsie: (@WuBlockchain)

Twitter user FreeBlock shared his experience of earning millions by participating in the third round of Blur’s airdrop program through various bidding strategies in a scientific manner. 1 By monitoring the memory pool, if there is an offer transaction that accepts his bid, he will use higher gas fees to withdraw the bid account balance, causing the transaction to fail (high feasibility);

🐩 Dog-themed memecoins have learned a new trick for pumping their token: burning worthless tokens and shouting about it.

How did we get here: It all started with $Floki Inu. It burned nearly 5 trillion tokens, which it claimed were worth $100 million •Yet these tokens were effectively outside of the circulating supply because they only existed to allow liquidity for cross-chain swaps.
•As a result, burning these tokens had no impact on the supply of tokens available for trading.

This chart is shows current market breadth. Note that macro setup was very different in 2015/16 ; massive stimulus outside US and the Fed paused after 1 hike. We narrowly avoided recession, and inflation was not an issue (deflation was). This is very different from what we have now so don’t draw any hasty parallels and stay vigilant. #ES #investing

Is this worrying ? ⁦@Grayscale⁩ won’t let us see under the hood 🤚 open.substack.com/pub/quoththera… Grayscale refuses to tell us what is under the hood. Even after repeated request, the grandmother of all structured BTC products, which trades effectively at a 45% discount to spot,  doesn’t want to insure investors that their holders are what they claim to be.

British households are set for the steepest fall in living standards on record and the highest tax burden since the second world war after Jeremy Hunt laid out plans to cut public spending and raise revenue to fill a £55bn fiscal hole.
@FT reports The chancellor told a sombre House of Commons that a massive fiscal consolidation, including £3obn of spending cuts and £25bn of tax rises, was needed to restore Britain's credibility and tame inflation.

The DTCC and R3 have moved into "parallel production" with project Ion. The "DLT-based" platform provides bi-lateral equity settlement for some of the US's largest banks and financial institutions. 

This is quietly massive for several reasons. 1. The DTCC doesn't do things by accident; they've implemented this because they and the FIs are getting major cost and risk management benefits, meaning the business case is real.

Good morning. Hedge funds have lined up the biggest bet against Italian government bonds since the global #financialcrisis on concerns over political turmoil in Rome and the country’s dependence on Russian #gas imports.
