Solana/Wormhole need to come up with 120,000 ETH to restore the 'pegging'. There's a good chance they're not going to say where the 120,000 ETH is coming from. 1. Undisclosed loan from crypto exchanges with customers Ethereum. 2. Crash the price of ETH to reduce costs.

Why do you think that they won’t just fill the gap with some of their 2021 profits? Need to guesstimate but this probably represents about 1-3 months profit for Jump Crypto or FTX.

There’s no actual profits that’s why they have to raise money every month or so, especially after market crashes.

Until they withdraw their money to the real world, nope. Tether gains don’t count.

How do you think they’re paying their ~100 employees?

Jump doesn’t do equity raises, it raises money for venture funds. Are you suggesting that they’re using LP money to pay staff…?

Ok, I thought we were talking about Jump. So do you think Jump profits are also fake? (fwiw I think FTX revenues are real but expansion costs and marketing probably exceed revenues rn)https://twitter.com/macrocephalopod/status/1489134801206620161 …

(I should have said 1-3 months of revenue for FTX above, not 1-3 months of profit)

lol Mr Cephalopod, you are talking to a guy that's been bearish on crypto since 2017. He has no fucking clue.
