Sure you can say this is a stress test - I’m just saying it’s misinformation. I am annoyed by people who spread misinformation for clout. Applies to both the bullish credit and the bearish crowd.

You cannot complain something is misinformation without offering information to counter it. That never works, will never work. The only reason an article like this, speculative or not, has wind to it's sails because crypto is not regulated like equity and companies like Alameda does not have to publish regular financial reports that classic market participants moving billions of "dollars" have to publish.

What if I saw military helicopters flying above and told others “war has broken out!” I see how you can say that’s not misinformation, but wild speculation. For me, it’s both.

Turn on a TV. No news about a war? No war. Unless you think there is a deeper conspiracy to keeping a war secret.

There you go, some really simple sources of information to counter your misinformation.

You have no evidence that this post is misinformation. You’re just choosing to believe it’s untrue.

I do not have the burden of proof.

No, Alameda/SBF does. And they haven't said anything about it. People are free to draw their conclusions from that.
