The Daily Spin. FED CPI Friday Edition. CPI has been released to the expectation of economists, down to 6.5% YoY. Markets rally as a result, with Bitcoin almost breaking the $19k mark over the day. Nexo’s Bulgaria office gets raided by police and prosecutors amid allegations of dealings with Ruja Ignatova, the infamous “cryptoqueen” of the OneCoin scam and still currently on the FBI’s top 10 most wanted list. Nexo rebuffs the allegations, while SBF still can’t keep his mouth shut. The Winklevoss twins are getting charged by the SEC over their Earn program, and DCG is scrambling to find $3bn to fill the hole it has on Genesis. Meanwhile, FTX “finds” $5bn in liquid assets and makes an impact on market prices, and Bitconnect victims will receive $17m back in a statement given by the Department of Justice (some DailySpin alpha: x-claim.com is where you can buy and sell frozen accounts at a discount). FET token is declared the reserve asset for Binance, and Ripple’s CTO is called out for manipulation of FLR token prices. Orange Financial launches an innovative platform for treasury yield management, and Yearn Finance unveils its permissionless vault factory. Gitcoin is to test their decentralized funding protocol beginning next week. And the FAA’s database infrastructure became a prime example of legacy information systems failing when a corrupt file caused over 10,000 delays and a large number of flights canceled, amounting to millions of dollars in damages to the entire airline industry not including untracked knock-on effects.
