TFL publicly told everyone that nobody knew about the halt before it happened. This document proves that over 50 people did. Knowing the exact block of the halt allows you to make a metric sh*tload of money since you know *exactly* when LUNA (now LUNC) will reverse in price.https://twitter.com/FatManTerra/status/1532100203637096454 …

As you can see, @stablechen is also one of those who knew. Basically, this is to be expected.

what does "knowing" imply ? everybody who shut off their nodes knew I did not profit off the halt, simply put

Maybe it wasn't you, but someone made those massive insider trades right before the halt, and if you had any good in you you'd be interested in figuring out who that was. You should have been the one sending me these chats, not the other validators.

sure but that's hard to know and that's a risk present in any group entrusted to power - much harder when there's 130 people that need to make a quick decision the alternative is broadcast to the world they're going to halt the chain and give an opportunity to attackers

You're right, there's not many good ways to carry it out. I can't fault you on that. My two main gripes are TFL lying about it and the insider trades taking place. TFL lying is par for the course, but I really think it's important to hold the insider traders accountable.
