Bitcoin is trying to stay within the current uptrend channel.

#Bitcoin is trying to stay within the current uptrend channel.

If uptrend is lost, then 17k is next. Tough times, but can go either way.

That rejection at 18k was pretty clear so far. Market about to decide.

“Binance doesn’t want people to know the true risks”

Tether: Auditors don’t know how to audit crypto!

Binance: Auditors don’t know how to audit crypto!

Coinbase: Audited by Deloitte, Big 4 firm.

That’s why Coinbase debt trades at such a large discount. Everyone knows the risk.

Auditors do know how to audit crypto exchanges and money market funds. The next excuse that Binance and Tether love to use, oh no, they can’t find an auditor because no one will agree to audit them because of the FUD on Twitter.

Fraudulent crypto exchanges and fraudulent stablecoins want you to believe that auditors check in with nocoiners or some asshole on Twitter before taking on a client. What a load of nonsense.
