1/ Some big @circle news. This morning, we announced the termination of our proposed deSPAC transaction. While disappointing that we did not complete SEC qualification in time, we remain focused on building a long-term public company. https://t.co/R0XYfCFD54

2/ From my perspective, I believe that the SEC has been rigorous and thorough in understanding our business and many novel aspects of this industry. This kind of review is necessary to ultimately provide trust, transparency and accountability for major companies in crypto.

3/ We also today shared our high-level Q3 financial results, with $274M in revenue, $43M in Net Income, and ~$400M on our balance. We are strong, growing, profitable and in the best financial position we've ever been in.

4/ While there are a lot of challenges within the crypto and blockchain industry, I am of the very firm conviction that we are going to decisively leave the speculative value phase and enter the utility value phase, and stablecoins such as USDC will play a huge part.

5/ We are investing, building, growing, and working with a large and thriving ecosystem of companies and projects who are focused on bringing forward the vision of open, more inclusive and more efficient global financial system.

Tethers risk management is so good, they haven't been able to provide an audit for over six years, and have lost hundreds of millions of dollars due to bank fraud and money laundering, covering up the losses until the NYAG made the losses public. pic.twitter.com/YJ7udqlchm
Alameda was the problem
The problem was always #Alameda:

1️⃣ User deposits #BTC to #FTX
2️⃣ Alameda borrows said BTC in exchange for #FTT
3️⃣ Alameda gambles and loses said BTC
4️⃣ FTT collateral is useless, #FTX is insolvent
5️⃣ Users withdrawals stop#FTX was a cash cow for Alameda, not an exchange.
Meanwhile Caroline, Alameda CEO, is chilling in New York buying herself a coffee with user funds. pic.twitter.com/WXb0Xhi1y8

DCG / Genesis fears are a bearish cloud hanging over the market
The GBTC / DCG / Genesis fears is a bearish cloud hanging over the market. But counterintuitively part of the impact has been bullish for BTC price.

37.5% of people who sold GBTC bought spot BTC to take custody. Selling GBTC does not impact BTC price, buying spot does. https://t.co/wUh5m8OVrm

Gemini formed an ad hoc committee
Earn Update: On Saturday (December 3, 2022), Gemini formed an ad hoc committee with other creditors (Creditor Committee) to coordinate efforts and advocate together for a resolution.
— Cameron Winklevoss (@cameron) December 5, 2022
Kirkland & Ellis has been engaged as counsel by the Creditor Committee to advocate on its behalf.
— Cameron Winklevoss (@cameron) December 5, 2022
Returning your funds is our highest priority and we are operating with the utmost urgency.
To appease the lawyers, I must clarify that whenever Gemini is referenced in relation to Earn users, it is acting as agent on their behalf. This is true for all tweets and messages, unless stated otherwise. Thanks
