FT Crypto Watch April 25th


Cryptonauts we love you!! 

Today's salmon tradfi lady on crypto, only the funny parts, Watch Army ROLLL!!

In print we get yet another  hack on Coin.  Attack the leaders FT!! c4265ffb70a4e2463f21a00471810704be8838f41c1a5a40ae5f3a10fe0e6b11.pngTLDR: it's funny, the FT mentions COIN is down 17% last week, says their bid to recover has failed.  yet fails to mention COIN is still up 60% YTD AH HA HA HA HA!  whatever. 

It is interesting, Uni has beaten COIN for volume sometimes, and COIN uses Uniswap for some deals. 

The heavy hand of the grownup print editors is on this rehash, & that's for the better.  Instead of the "Coinbase threats" we got online, we hear that COIN refuses to rule out leaving Merica.

Loads of happy tank pictures, aww lookit the cute German tanks ranging over the continent 

8c5df962435121659ee93d8da5dcc25aed0d93cc61e8664e95ca4f7447792164.pngTLDR: Gilbraltar tries to be an early crypto center. Now they are wresting with the Globix bankruptcy, odd since Globix was never regulated in Gibraltar.   Kind of a non story. Globix went into voluntary bankruptcy.  One wallet was moving funds late. 

The FT vaguely tries to smear Binance, though Binance did everything required.  The FT manages to get thru without saying FTX FTX FTX directly, which is nice. 

This story under " we all knew it was coming but it still hurts".  We need reading music to mourn what could have been: TLDR: snif snif

047ab67f39ac6c212a051f967379434815be1faef360da1979d4e8ec5e8ae33d.pngTLDR:  Unelected, partisan reg hammerers destroy the fastest and best way for Voyager clients to get their assets back.  The Feds never would say it was OK for Binance to buy Voyager's remains, nor would they say why it was NOT.  A sad day, which makes the FT happy.  did you know binance and binance us once employed some of the same lobbyists!! Not at the same time, but still oh my, blah blah blah copypasta...

Here we see the FT list every time Binance has been accused of going 54 in a 55, even pretending Binance is a Chinese company.   The LAST paragraph,  US said the “hostile and uncertain regulatory climate in the United States has introduced an unpredictable operating environment”. That's a mouthful!  The real story: binance could have done whatever was asked, this is just hostile.

National Merit got this punk rocker to Oberlin, and Wall Street fintech gave up world tours and an NYU MBA. I am a Bitcoin true believer. Bitcoin is deeply revolutionary in a way we always prayed tech would be. Keep the baby Faith!


FT WATCH - the Financial Times on Crypto!!!
FT WATCH - the Financial Times on Crypto!!!

The WSJ turned into USA today - which leaves the FT at the top of the heap for serious financial news! Join us for a semi-serious monitoring of the FUD & hate the FT now showers on crypto. Dear readers know we love that pink newspaper but boy howdy does the FT despise crypto--- it's funny. The old guard always fights the new guard. The FT does it eruditely, with misleading comments, fun graphs, and outright lies (usually) attributed to crypto's greatest enemies!
