Unhinged text messages from SBF shared with a VOX reporter. He is still in denial. His biggest regret is "filing for chapter 11" bankruptcy. i.e. "someone else is in charge of my money and now I can’t get new investors and trade my way out of this hole."https://t.co/FLa6H2zutj

"If I hadn’t done that (Chapter 11) withdrawals would be opening up in a month with customers fully whole. But instead I filed and the people in charge of it are trying to burn it all to the ground out of shame. I might still get there."

The withdrawal data on Nov 16 is about three times that of Nov 15, Nov14, and Nov 13.

The $ETH withdrawal amount on Nov 16 was less than Nov 12, but the withdrawal addresses were more than Nov 12, indicating that many retail investors withdraw $ETH from Gemini yesterday.

"We were never in a battle with @SBF_FTX. He may have thought he was in a battle with us, we didn’t even notice," says @cz_binance. "We don’t focus our energy on other smaller exchanges. We’re much more focused on how to grow the industry." pic.twitter.com/nr5hCJ5Ipg
