Give us your crackpot theories

[Anonymous No.13634587]

- Bitfinex gets charged of 851 million USDT fraud by New York Attorney general
- Binance gets hacked 7000 BTC and shuts down withdrawals
- Bitcoin rallies from 5500 to over 8000 dollars.
- USDT is now worth more than USD
- Prices on Coinbase, Bitstamp, Kraken are higher than on Bitfinex and Binance.

WTH is going on /biz/?

What if Binance and Bitfinex are helping each other out? They are after all two chink exchanges and I seem to remember to have even seen the bitfinex feather logo on the binance site in a 'glitch'. (My memory is hazy here and cant find anything online about it)

Anyway, let us assume they are helping each other out.
What exactly are they doing?
I think what happened first was a huge outflux of USDT out of binance.
Then all deposits and withdrawals in and out of binance were stopped.
How does this cause a bull run though?
Why in Bitcoin and not so much in alts?
Why is USDT more valuable than USD on kraken, bitstamp or coinbase?

I have more questions than answers and i'm tired, but I know there are bright guys lurking this forum and this is the best place to get a discussion started on this. So here it goes.

that doesn't make sense. where would they send it? if anything, my guess is that they use their reserves to pump btc on their exchange

There was no “hack”. The 7000 btc move was deliberate, but because the blockchain is a public ledger, they had to cover it by calling it a hack and incidentally giving a good excuse to shut down binance for a week.

Therefore the plan has always been to withdraw 7000 btc then pump for a week.

The correct question is, what did they need the $56million for? It’s not even a huge amount.

The 56m was to long the shirt on Tether’s sudden insolvency of course.

If they needed such an elaborate ruse to raise a paltry 56m, then their financial situation is a lot worse than we thought. Isnt that supposed to be just a few days’ profit for major exchanges? Or are they actually running on fumes cash wise, mostly sitting on a growing pile of garbage crypto?

the "hack" was such a poorly execute heist. CZ message was full of contradictions. Also, why did they need to shut off withdrawals for a whole week? what is their team "working" on? didn't CZ say the hacked accounts were phished? if that's so what the fuck can their team even do if it's not a design flaw in their exchange but customer fault? This whole thing doesn't make sense.

Its not a theory anymore. I dont know if you follow articles and twitter, but theres a lot of info out there. Bitfinex and Binance are together in the fraud, its just a matter of time before this tanks sub 1k. Cz is way more involved in the tether scam than most people think
