A bunch of crypto companies used $SI to hold user deposits, stablecoin backing, etc - $USD cash. As it got more crypto customers it grew - $SI went from being a small bank to a medium bank, holding IIRC ~$15 billion in customer deposits.

Since it had all this cash around $SI execs decided to invest it in a very safe asset: US Treasury bills. Basically they loaned the government of the United States money in exchange for interest plus guarantee of getting it back in N years.

Now that #JosephDePaolo has suddenly resigned as CEO of $SBNY under a cloud of money laundering/fraud related smoke (he banked #Binance under a nonexistent Seychelles company which is illegal) here's a recording of an earnings call where he claims to not know who FTX is.

In the aftermath of the #FTXplosion DePaolo, one of two CEOs of "crypto friendly" banks in the United States, would like you to believe that he has no idea what this "#FTX" thing is.
SBF was easily the most famous dude in finance at that moment and a CUSTOMER AT HIS BANK

#FTX invested in the rural bank through Alameda, with an investment of $11.5M for 10% of the bank in its parent company FBH in March 2022.
The #AlamedaResearch investment was more than double the bank’s value of $5.7M.

To put this into perspective #FTX’s investment valued the bank at $115M. Yet, it only had $10M in customer deposits
Why did they do that?

1/ Negli ultimi giorni c’è molto timore dietro i token wrapped di Bitcoin. Ho già sollevato qualche qualche giorno fa la questione di wBTC, ma facciamo un piccolo recap perché ci sono delle cose che DEVI sapere!
🧵
🧵
2/ C’è una forte incertezza dietro al token #renBTC per via del suo legame con #alamedaresearch. Ma, a differenza di #wBTC possiamo vedere che il suo valore è ancora peggato, sostanzialmente perché c’è ancora il collaterale a sostenerne il prezzo

#FTX, a crypto exchange valued at $32 Bn went under🥵
$32Bn is INR 250,000 Cr+, i.e., More than HCL Tech and Wipro's valuation 🤯
What happened❓ Let's decode👇

A. Background
Alameda Research was founded in 2017 by Sam Bankman Fried
It was a trading firm in crypto space (think, Zerodha)
Later, Sam built an exchange - FTX, in 2019 (think, Bombay Stock Exchange)

FTX decided to expand its bouquet of services
They starting giving loans to customers
Who bought cryptos on loan and FTX charged interest against that
Later, they decided to bring their own cryptocurrency - FTX Token (#FTT)

1/ So basically SBF was using his own token $FTT as collateral in a flywheel scheme, allegedly misusing/gambling user deposits.
#CoinDesk published #AlamedaResearch's balance sheet which showed the extent they were using $FTT as collateral.

2/ #cz_binance was pushed into selling his $FTT holdings which made everyone question #FTX solvency.
A bankrun started and when everyone tried to withdraw it became clear that #FTX did not have enough funds to cover all the deposits.

3/ I am trying to find another logical explanation different from #FTX gambling with user funds.
Where are the funds if they were simply hodling them for the users? At least according to their ToS.

#Alameda's Assets on Wallet (>100,000 USD).
Excluding stablecoins, $ETH, $BIT and $FTT are worth more than $1M.
You need to focus on these tokens, she may sell at any time.
Also, $SRM, $OP, $MATIC, $MASK, $SAND and $FTM are worth keeping an eye on.
