What Tether doesn’t tell you

@Bitfinexed Tether going into full panic mode.
Basically, this is a “please don’t shut us down, we’re buying so many treasury bills!”
What Tether doesn’t tell you, is by their own admission they have less than 1,000 customers, and one customer, Sam Bankman-Fried, was responsible for 36 billion Tethers all by himself.
Sam Bankman-Fried is of course in jail. Some of Bitfinex/Tethers major shareholders? Also in jail.

@BoringSleuth Who was the Ethereum Whale that perfectly timed the Market Crash?
An Ethereum Whale that was such a good trader, they timed the ETH crash perfectly, saving themselves $5M dollars by liquidating their ETH position. Naturally, I was curious who it was! So I took a look. Here is what I found:

https://twitter.com/BoringSleuth/status/1693764418255946098/photo/2
Who was this mysterious Ethereum Whale? While I am unable to tell you for certain, there are a few things I can tell you.

1. The only wallets this whale interacted with that were not exchanges was a wallet I’ve ID’d as LeiShen.eth 0x2972, where they sent them $500K USDT on July 24th.
2. When looking into Leishen.eth’s wallets, they are CLOSELY connected to CZ of Binance. Previously, they sent $8.5M Tether to CZ’s own personal account.
3. LeiShen.eth has received a Net Positive >$35M from Ambar Group, and has over 30 trx’s sending them Stablecoins back and forth with them.

While I can’t tell you who owns this trail of wallets, its safe to say they are closely tied to Amber Group and CZ. Its also not out of the realm of possibility that this wallet isn’t a team member of Binance or Amber Group, or even potentially owned by one of the two.

There are no random Ethereum Whales timing Market Pumps and dumps. Instead, its greedy insiders, normally associated the CZ or the Ethereum Foundation (Wanxiang/Prometheum).

The biggest fraud started at FTX after Gary Gensler’s and Jay Clayton’s old buddy at Sullivan & Cromwell, Ryne Miller started advising SBF at $2 – $4,000 an hour. Ryne Miller ex CFTC Legal Counsel to Chairman Gensler

WSJ Scoop on FTX:
> The LedgerX team, acquired by FTX, spotted FTX’s special treatment of Alameda via Backdoor
> Whistleblower was fired
> FTX later offers $5 MM to whistleblower not to say anything.
Excerpt:
Prosecutors say Bankman-Fried stole funds from FTX customers, in part, by secretly ordering the programming of “special features” that gave Alameda—his crypto trading firm—the ability to treat FTX as a giant slush fund. Court filings have revealed a line buried deep in FTX’s code that allowed Alameda to have a negative balance of as much as $65 billion on the exchange.

CRYPTO

Binance is a larger fraud than FTX.
Tether is a larger fraud than Binance

@BoringSleuth According to LinkedIn, these are the profiles associated with the creation of Tether. They work for Prometheum, #Ambisafe, #Chainsafe, the Ethereum Foundation among other contributors

@Bitfinexed
Binance is proof that you can have news about your exchange missing billions of dollars, customers funds being siphoned away for your own two trading hedge funds secretly using over 300 house accounts, knowingly laundering money for terrorist organizations, and the exchange is still operating.
FTX would still be operating today if not for CZ throwing SBF under the bus.
Binance is even worse than FTX, yet continues to operate like a cancer. Because the crypto industry is a cult.

Mapping out one of the cryptos biggest yet conflict of interest.

@BoringSleuth
I believe without any doubt that the Ethereum Cartel is holding back all of Crypto. Just think about where all those investment dollars & dollars stolen from protocols could have gone to support those with interests that aligned with all Market participants. Instead our dollars have gone to the corrupt, building hierarchical systems of control disguised as decentralized protocols. Our dollars have lined the pockets of a couple of handfuls of Regulators, Vcs, Developers, and others willing to sell their integrity and the values of their communities for the disguise of success and monetary wealth. They all have a back door. https://twitter.com/NerdNationUnbox/status/1699193565849506241

What you perceive as “inflation” is just the bitcoin protocol distributing those coins as programmed.

@Leerzeit
Have you ever noticed that in statistics about the overall value of the Ethereum ecosystem, all the staking services for Ethereum are counted double? For example, Lido’s market cap is already fully included in Ethereum’s market cap. Just like with all other ETH staking services. But I guess this way you can use it as collateral twice. Once for the ETH that Lido directly stakes on L1 Ethereum, and once for the wrapped ETH that you got from the Lido contract. Probably somewhere you will be even able to stake Lido ETH, and stake the wrapped wrapped wrapped ETH high up into infinity.

The beneficiaries of Ethereum’s top grossing Mining Pools.

🚨99.99% of Poolin 2’s ETH Mining Pool rewards went straight to CCP & Wanxiang affiliated, InBlockchain.C0M🚨
In total, around 111,000 ETH were mined thru this one mining Pool, of which 99.99% went to one company, InBlockchain.
If you don’t recall, Inblockchain shares MIT and Wanxiang’s slogan, “In Blockchain we Trust”. I shared the below thread back in August on them, and there is no doubt they are one of Ethereum’s massive hidden private ICO whales.
https://twitter.com/BoringSleuth/status/1710784266425004164
“In Blockchain we Trust”
I was all to familiar with this quote. I originally came across it when I noticed that both MIT and Wanxiang used it as their slogan, another data point showing their relation to one another.
Today, I came across http://InBlockchain.com while sleuthing. On their homepage, and even in their own name, they quote In Blockchain We trust. This had me very curious.
Come to find out, they claim to be China’s, and the worlds most connected VC firm in Crypto. Touting the deepest relationships with the Top 100 BTC whales with their own heavy bags of BTC, and now ETH.
When I was scrolling thru their website, I noticed that they are the ones who created Peatio, Yunbi, and the Big One Exchange.
I’ve shared this before, but Yunbi/Peatio are Black Box exchanges, that were built to spinoff. My research suggested that Yunbi/Peatio were Wanxiang’s original exchange, and that Binance Yunbi/Peatio on steroids. An exchange, that had hundreds of other exchanges that all funneled money back to them.
More research needs done, but needless to say, I uncovered another critical piece to my research, all while validating a lot of on-chain research I had done, and the conclusions they led me to.

Miami Herald Investigative journalist. Author of “Perversion of Justice: The Jeffrey Epstein Story.” I write about the broken criminal justice system.
Woman files lawsuit against Leon Black, alleging she was trafficked to him by Epstein and Maxwell when she was 16. The woman, who has Autism and a form of Down Syndrome, says she was severely beaten and raped by the former CEO.  The woman, now in her late 30s, says that Epstein and Maxwell trafficked her to other powerful older men in the early 2000s, and that they were assisted by others who recruited her at a cheerleading camp. The lawsuit comes as the Senate Finance Committee opens a probe into Black’s financial dealings with Epstein — and after Black paid a $62.5 million cash settlement to the USVI to help scuttle a lawsuit against him by the U.S. Territory’s Attorney General.

Rudy Giuliani FOLDS, admits he made false, defamatory statements about 2 Georgia election workers — and admits Biden won 2020 Georgia election.
Looks like Rudy is reversing course, cutting his losses — and turning against Trump. Could be MASSIVE turn of events.

Trump awarded Alex Acosta for the sweet deal Epstein got, he made him Secretary of Labor.

The Mayor of Erie, PA, wants Donald Trump to pay in advance for an upcoming rally after saying the city was stiffed $35,000 for a past Trump event.
The money was earmarked for city workers, including police officers

@BradSherman equates printing money with earning money. He literally believes we could print 10 trillion dollars today and it would be good for America.

US Senators introduce bill to ban the President, VP, and Congress members from owning & trading stocks.
@JohnEDeaton1 Not only should this bill be introduced but also a law should be passed preventing a regulator from leaving their post and immediately begin working for a company that they were just responsible for regulating. If you work for the @SECGov you don’t get to resign and immediately get to go work at @jpmorgan or @GoldmanSachs. If you work for the @US_FDA you don’t get to resign and immediately get to go work at Johnson and Johnson. Same for @EPA, @CFTC, etc. We need to stop the revolving  at these agencies and prosecute those who break financial conflict laws. That’s how you start draining the swamp.

Counterintuitively, the so-called IRS whistleblowers may have fucked ANY prosecution of Hunter Biden, bc they’ve now disclosed that DOJ believed the case couldn’t be charged (and it’s now more clear they mishandled the laptop).

@RBReich Why is healthcare so expensive in America?
In the past few years, some hospital CEOs have seen their salaries increase by as much as 700 percent. Yes, you read that correctly.
Say it with me, Medicare for All.

Here, I’m saying it again outside of the House floor: United States District Court Judge Lewis Kaplan found that Donald Trump “raped” E. Jean Carroll.
Below is the link to the court ruling.

Why #Bitcoin is the future of money
“It is the internet – unleashed and uncensorable.”
Bitcoin is disruptive, and that’s why traditional investments have a problem.  The point is that Bitcoin is the first completely decentralized, transnational platform for exchanging value. It has no borders. It doesn’t care whether you like the transaction or not. It is entirely based on  mathematical verifiability. It is the internet, unleashed, unvarnished, unpolished and uncensorable. And if you can’t swallow that pill, there is a startup out there that is going to take that innovation and it’s going to disrupt your industry.

Bank punish crypto users when they won’t give you a mortgage

Just your friendly reminder that the US government spent $4 trillion of taxpayer dollars bailing out the banks and gave them trillions more with  PPP but the $2 trillion dollar crypto industry which has never received a dollar of government funding is the one being scrutinized.

JPMorgan agrees to pay $15.7 mln to settle spoofing lawsuit

BANKS WILL PUNISH YOU GETTING A MORTGAGE IF YOU ARE BUYING CRYPTO

@ercwl
After weeks of discussion I was just turned down to get my first mortgage because of my crypto transaction history {….@Swedbank}

I said “ok look I won’t do any crypto transactions at your bank then” they said ”we are sorry but we can’t serve you with the knowledge of what you are doing at other banks”

I’m usually a pretty privileged semi-white CIS male and this offends me

Having the same issue in the U.S of A. I was finally able to get an approval but I wasn’t allowed to use any of the crypto funds towards the house. I’m unlucky enough to still have employment income but they essentially cut my my buying power in half.

Similar story, crypto holdings almost sunk my mortgage application. Managed to take advantage of a loop hole and get the mortgage anyway. Way more difficult than it should have been.

Sorry to hear you need a mortgage Eric. Have you considered buying #HEX instead? I’m sure it could alleviate the need for a mortgage in a very short time.

Why do you need a mortgage? http://HEX.com user unaffected.
