I mean, maybe she's really good at institutional lending, Forbes says so.

she was in Girls Do Porn and most likely was taken advantage of by the skels that ran it, no need to drag her on that.

in the end the dao generously voted to pay out YGG 30% of the value of their investment instead of 0

but the original investment was supposed to be on a 4 year vesting schedule, so if this dao crashes to 0 / gets hacked / rugpulls / etc before the end of the 2nd year the VCs will actually come out ahead on this deal

Co-founder of 3 Arrow Capital, a crypto hedgefund. They're apparently even deeper on stETH than Celsius and they've been trying to dump it for the last few days. That they're dumping stETH, which is supposed to be a long term investment token, to get any kind of liquidity instead of selling literally any of their other supposed assets is... hm

I just spent some time checking out that stEth is and lol. It's just a way to double-dip on interests. If you have one Eth you can "invest" it and earn something lovely like 20% annual RoI or you can stake it, get 10% annual RoI (for reasons), and also get an equal amount of stEth which you can re-invest to earn that other 20%.

I propose a mechanism that lets you stake your stEth (for the time Eth 3.0 happens) and gives you stEth2 which you can then re-re-invest. Triple dipping is better than double.


e: I also didn't know bitfinex had a losers leaderboard

was just checking the NCUA list of failed credit unions and:

quote:

2022 03/04/2022 Involuntary Liquidation Empire Financial Federal Credit Union New York New York

quote:

Gerry Goldenbroit is completely incensed and devastated that the NCUA conserved Empire Financial Federal Credit Union, which he led as its president/CEO for nine years.

“There was no reason that this had to be done,” the 72-year-old Goldenbroit, who also worked as an NCUA examiner for more than 18 years, said. “The credit union was solvent. Its recordkeeping was up to date. There was something very, very wrong in what they did. I am so completely devastated by what they did to me with [their] lies that I don’t know what to do.”

The former CEO claimed in interviews with CU Times that the independent federal agency targeted the credit union for conservatorship because he ignored its directive not to issue Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans, which Goldenbroit argued he was allowed to do based on NCUA guidelines. But it appeared that Goldenbroit approved a PPP loan for his own credit union consultancy company, which the NCUA said is not allowed. Goldenbroit denied he violated this prohibition.

He also said he believes the NCUA conserved the credit union in part because he allegedly failed to file currency transaction reports (CTRs) and suspicious activity reports regarding the deposit of millions from a courier company. According to Goldenbroit, the courier business, owned by one of Empire Financial’s board members, collected cash from cryptocurrency ATMs. He vehemently insisted that he did file CTRs….

DORs typically list one or more action items, including corrective actions credit union management needs to perform and/or address when an examiner has concerns related to a specific risk area or risk factor. But when asked what specific directives were listed in Empire Financial’s DOR, Goldenbroit’s answer was elusive.

“It’s more than I could just rattle off now,” he said. “A lot of them [the directives were], do this, do that, don’t do this, don’t do that.”
