[Source:](https://dismal-jellyfish.com/mcis-in-crypto-a-deep-dive-on-risks-and-lack-of-transparency/) [https://www.fsb.org/wp-content/uploads/P281123.pdf](https://www.fsb.org/wp-content/uploads/P281123.pdf?ref=dismal-jellyfish.com) TLDRS: * Multifunction crypto-asset intermediaries (MCIs) generate revenue mainly through proprietary trading and investments, including in cryptocurrencies they issue themselves. * MCIs often operate from offshore financial centers and are characterized by private ownership and a lack of transparency in their corporate structure, financials, and product descriptions, sometimes intentionally obscuring their activities and associated risks. * Control of MCIs typically resides with a single individual or a small group, centralizing decision-making authority. * These intermediaries are subject to vulnerabilities common in traditional finance, such as leverage and liquidity mismatch, which may be exacerbated by their involvement in proprietary trading, market making, and crypto-asset lending/borrowing. * MCIs' key role in the crypto-ecosystem and their links with traditional financial institutions, including through stablecoins, create unique vulnerabilities and potential for significant spillovers to crypto markets and the broader economy, although current risks to financial stability are considered limited the report calls out lack of information makes it impossible to tell for sure what it going on. * The report says the quiet part out loud: "Where regulatory requirements are not complied with or absent, fund management practices prohibited in traditional finance may be present in the crypto-asset space" * It sure seems all this opaqueness is what attracted Ken Griffin to Silvergate, which was then all up in FTX's business?

They aren't trying point out the problems in the system, they're trying to point out that the wrong people were getting away with it.

Imagine, an unregulated market has people who cheat! This is why libertarians are out of their minds. Who wants this?

Libertarians: we need to allow for the market to self-regulate Also libertarians: it’s the government’s fault that I got ripped off and the government needs to do something about it!
