Hey , we hope you enjoyed reading our story as much as we have enjoyed researching and writing it. We know people who love hedging such as or yourself. But this is not our policy. We are into facts storytelling.

meh disagree with much of your narrative -- tbh didn't find it particularly enjoyable :P
but given the prevalence of claims and paucity of questions it seems my explanations are not particularly desired.
the wonders of criticizing when you don't have a reputation to lose...

tbh you weren't the target audience :P
The article covers both sides of the public opinion regarding your short selling, it wasn't written to be an attack on you.

Yeah it was more fair than many takes!
But, e.g., it quoted 5 different people with various takes, some clearly wrong, and didn't actually quote any of my responses other than to note that there were some.
Some of them were fine! But e.g. the vote justification is nonsense.

Mate just admit it, you shorted yfi and uni to the ground by borrowing and selling them on binance and other exchanges. It ain't no hedge. You hold no yfi. Once you covered the positions everything started going up.

selling $3m of YFI does not short it "to the ground".
It crashed because *all* of DeFi crashed, it had bad PR events, and yield farming in particular went down.
and it wasn't just hedging YFI (some of which I do hold!)
It was also hedging other positions (e.g. SRM, FTT, SUSHI, SOL, etc.)

Your tweet is not, as it turns out, correct.
And 'just admit it' is not a very constructive thing to say.
