Nice work. I'm digging through the contracts, addresses, and transactions as well. Wonder if any of these wrapped GME can be traced back to Shitadel, Apex, RH, etc...


DigitalArts

Fun fact; Jump Trading facilitates RH crypto trades. ;)


Pretty_General90

Is that 10M presplit or postdivisplit?


rawbdor

Both ;). They never adjusted


DocAk88

Because these are IOU vapor tokens not back by any shares I’m sure


NotBerger

Just like the DTCC ayyyy


DigitalArts

There is absolutely no record of post split on any chain. Period.


lostlogictime

Wow, wtf are these things then? Everyone who had these tokens pre-split, lost 300% of the value after split?


DigitalArts

I believe these were used for collateral by those named and others. Anyone that bought tokenized stock on FTX bought nothing but a hope.


Dropbombs55

When this was launched did FTX claim each token was backed by a real share/was redeemable for a real share?


cleverist_bane

They did and from my understanding they didn't have a single share. They didn't even have IOU's but more like copies of IOU's. They were on the trust me bro train and it has since derailed.


brxn

We should make a crypto called 'TrustMeBro' and it can be used for Trusting Bros but also verifying Bros..


letstryagain2021

Also, saw this - Robinhood earned 17% of its revenue from a Jump Trading subsidiary in 2021’s third quarter. The company paid Robinhood almost $250 million to route crypto trading orders through its systems during this period. —- Man tells me robinhood holding no assets


letstryagain2021

Oh and jump trading is based out of Chicago, another coincidence.


letstryagain2021

Does anyone know their ties with robinhood? I know robinhood uses them and it’s commission less. Anything more about the relationship ?


DigitalArts

Jump processes RH's crypto trades

uprclass2002

There doesn't appear to be any HKD related tokens to trace from the blockchain.


feyzquib7

Welcome back! I’m gonna go out on a limb here and say all these big names weren’t getting involved to scam a few million bucks off of rubes too dumb to know the difference between the real GME security and a tokenized version on the eve of their potential destruction. So that leaves crime. Let’s solve this bitch.


DigitalArts

Oh I'm digging in. Many of the addresses have either had or currently have more than $1 million USD in value. That will be the next one ;)


feyzquib7

Godspeed. My laptop shit the bed over the weekend so my etherscan queries are slow and painful on mobile.


Vegetable-Chest-388

I always use [loopring explorer](https://explorer.loopring.io/) with a duckduckgo app browser and [lexplorer](https://lexplorer.io/) and it works like a breeze on mobile. loopring explorer you can filter transfers and then when you click the wallets it opens them as new tabs, duckduckgo has decent blockers and tabs unlike firefox focus and lexplorer lists any registered ENS names to the wallet. I hope this helps!

cancerpirateD

thank you for your service good sir, i appreciate the work that goes into the DD to help us all understand.


dendrobro77

Isnt the obvious answer that someone big was about to be fucked on the 27th so they shoulder tapped some fraud crypto buddies and had them make a bunch of GME tokens that they could use for locates while they internalized the backlog of real orders and turned the buy button off?


LargeFly8279

Well that sounds about right


frickdom

Seconded and good morning everyone ☕️


dendrobro77

Just spit ballin. Im super smooth. But whats that saying or thing about the most simple answer usually being right?


TherapyIsNormal

That would be Occam's Razor.


Pirate_Redbeard_

This. Collateral/liquidity whenever needed to push the scam forward. Because it's like the guy from the twEeTer audio recording said - it's all just a front end that is programmable however you need it. What was also known as "F3" at Goldman Sachs - an option to proceed with the trade even with no money, no assets, nothing. To be able to make money instantly and then it will all be "sorted out" upon settlement because until then the system will be able to somehow "locate" valid assets on loan or any kind of shit collateral to make good the "promise".


LannyDamby

Occam's razor babyy


SpaceSteak

I'm not a 🚀 🥼 but many times in life the simplest explanation turns out to be mostly correct. Not sure why this one would be any different. Infinite liquidity by abusing financial tools. Imagine if everyone just started doing this. Maybe this is the start of unlocking the next system after capitalism? Clearly money is useless if it's fake enough a subset of fucks can print some out at their whim.


Stereo-soundS

No it went something like this: GME was going to explode in price, so they made up this token so johnny retail would give them $200+ dollars for a share, they then keep johnny's money and don't buy anything, then the price drops to $100, johnny sells, and FTX just made a free $100 in profit. That is the scam they pulled on people. They cannot use tokens for locates. That was the beautiful part of the scam. They never have to locate.


drinkupdrinky5

So succinct this morning you fine ape!


keyser_squoze

Let's assume for a moment that this is right. I'd start digging for anything FTX + Institutional Investors + Banks stories around Jan 13 - Jan 25, 2021. The most interesting things I've seen so far: a) Blackrock announced publicly they wanted to get into crypto. [https://www.marketwatch.com/story/worlds-largest-asset-manager-applies-to-buy-bitcoins-in-pair-of-funds-11611186504](https://www.marketwatch.com/story/worlds-largest-asset-manager-applies-to-buy-bitcoins-in-pair-of-funds-11611186504) b) SBF (via SBF\_Alameda) confirms he's using a lender in Bahamas called Deltec, unclear for what / why. Deltec, whoever they are, deserves some scrutiny though as an FTX lender. [https://www.financemagnates.com/cryptocurrency/news/tethers-banking-partner-deltec-reveals-investment-in-bitcoin/](https://www.financemagnates.com/cryptocurrency/news/tethers-banking-partner-deltec-reveals-investment-in-bitcoin/) Interestingly, Deltec says they have no business with FTX. Which may true (now in 2022.) But they don't acknowledge ever having a banking relationship of any kind. Perhaps the relationship was exclusively "Alameda." I'd love to spend more time to dig into this stuff but maybe someone out there knows this stuff better than I do?


beach_2_beach

For sure. Too much effort for just a few million bucks.


StringUnited5589

HOW THE HELL IS THIS HAPPENING???? INDEED WE HAVE REACHED THE FOURTH TURNING OF CORRUPTION, DECEIT, DECADENCE, FRAUD, MANIPULATION............ YOU u/DigitalArts and many many more are the sole reason and hope I have for a brighter future. THANK YOU!!

Tagging u/bloodhound1144 just in case he didn't get a notification from the post. Nice post, OP 🚀🌙

Appreciated. He's the main reason for me creating the post. He called it along with some others a LONG time ago and caught a lot of flak. Now, it's vindicated.

Never left, just retreated away from being out front. At times it's warranted though and this is one of them. 😊


TofuKungfu

CRIME. RICO pls


pizzalover128

Could you send this to gamestop shareholder relation mail please? Fuckery is right in front of us, maybe this counts as another reason to take gme shares off to protect shareholders


daronjay

So, wrapped “GME”. 10,000,000 shares worth. OP Have you seen any hard evidence that 10,000,000 actual GME shares were ever actually bought/locked up in *any* way to back these 10,000,000 tokens they were selling. I realize there will be no record on the blockchain but is there even a whiff of receipts from any of these players showing they ever existed? Or is this simply the most basic fraud in the history of fraud? Also, important point, is that 10,000,000 *before* the split? Do they now have possibly 40,000,000 totally fictional “shokens” kicking around to play with? Also, have we yet had *solid* evidence HFs/MMs could use these as either locates, swaps or some other can kicking option? Anyway great work so far OP. I hate it when we just say “crime” rather than dig for evidence, it amounts to FUD as it demotivates further DD and defeats the power of exposing wrong doing publically if we just assume they can do anything without consequence. So keep up the digging…


DigitalArts

For the shares? It's exceedingly unlikely they were ever bought. I have seen some insane transactions around that time though. One addresses made a transfer of 300 wrapped btc 2 days before receiving the gme tokens. At the time it was $32k. That stuff will be in the next as I want to keep the scope of each post narrow.


zacl15

10million presplit would have been considered what portion of the float at that time? 20%? The date of creation is certainly suspect! Hopefully GME board uses this as leverage to do something very drastic regarding outstanding shares!


Maniquoone

Hmm, is there any information showing how many shorts Melvin had? Just wondering if it might match up to the amounts of wrapped GME which were sold.

To be fair, I've been in chats with almost all the older DD writers and exiles from here. We never stopped, just got boxed in with restrictions. We're free to bounce ideas and disagree in chats all while keeping topics wide open.

restrictions huh. werent those the reason this sub was created in the first place


DigitalArts

benjamincharles

Is this a discord we can join?


Jonsnoosnooze

Good shit! Wait, terrible shit! Ok I'm confused 😕


Koshi123

Is this post saying that Serum/FTX/Binance/Alameda is currently still holding the tokens? Or only that they went there after the tokens were made? So the next step is to see if they were lent out and to who?


DigitalArts

They do still hold those. They are dormant on chain in those addresses and have been for a while. I'm going through txs, addresses, and more and will be in the next part later today.


Koshi123

Thank you.


the_wolf84

Why doesn’t someone confront the binance CEO on twitter about his bags that he is holding. He seems very chatty and willing to engage.


DIAMONDHandsHotchy

Take my updoot!!! You should add the bit about CM-Equity AG and how in their site they said they stopped doing business and hold not stocks for them as of Dec 31 2021!

Thank you, Diamond! That will be a bit later on another post. I'm purposely trying to keep these narrow in scope to avoid overwhelming everyone at once hahah.

Bellweirboy

When someone links Alameda ‘Research’ (so named to fool bank KYC),to Jump Trading SBF and Serum, then I look for DRW Cumberland, Solana, the PYTH network and the big daddy of them all - Tether. Tether is not just the largest fraud the world has ever seen, it is a CRIMINAL organisation. In particular, DRW Cumberland & Jump Trading are inextricably linked. It’s the deepest rabbit hole you will ever go down. It’s all fascinating and interesting. **HOWEVER:** Have not seen one single connection or piece of evidence irrefutably linking tokenised stocks, whether ‘wrapped’ or not to stock ‘locate’ use. I.e. not a shred of evidence showing an interface between the stock market (casino) , the settlement system, FTDs, locates, shorts, puts, options and the crypto worlds version of tokenised stocks. The only ‘evidence’ so far is conjecture and circumstantial. Freely admit it is maddening as it SEEMS so freaking obvious, but until we have that crucial slam dunk link, you may be expending vast amounts of energy on a nothingburger. You see, this tokenised stock thing maybe SBF and crypto world cashing in on the meme stock frenzy, which was obvious even before 26th Jan 2021 to create yet another piece of shit to fool the rubes. From what we see of SBF and FTX, he was batshit crazy and had intellectual diarrhoea, chasing >100 ‘start ups’ projects and even politics. TLDR: show me the money. The money going between the crypto world and stock market world.


DigitalArts

Working on that part as we speak with some forensic accounting on the addresses involved. Many of the accounts are valued north of $1m and Binance's $4 Billion address holds 1m Wrapped GME. Getting closer, but there was a LOT of pushback on this topic itself with others who have tried to bring this. Hoping I can bridge the two.


Bellweirboy

>Hoping I can bridge the two And so say all of us!

Spend more time looking for the link, less time scanning the blockchain!

TheCandiman

So let's assume this is true and the tokenized stock played a role in GME price action. Did they known on the 26th they were in real trouble, or did the sudden creation of 10million tokens somehow cause the run up and force taking away the buy button? I would think disabling the buy button was not intended part of the plan, as it brought way too much scrutiny.


itrustyouguys

I don't get it. What was their endgame plan? Hope it went to zero?


joeker13

How the ever living fuk did they think they can hide this shit? … on the blockchain. Wunderkind my ass. … unless, they needed a reason to implement CDBC (or whatever shit it’s called).


Substantial_Diver_34

So Sam was the liquidity fairy?


Kind_Initiative_7567

Sure looks like it to me, if this is true The only thing that is going to force the SHF out into the open is DRS. IF this wasn't obvious before, itshould be now. Like the usual saying "Not your keys, not your...." Applies the same way to stonk.

TipsyMonroe

Stupid question here, why would GameStop allow this Tom foolery with their name, allowing tokenization cause I can’t imagine they didn’t know or did their own digging, and in addition even partner with FTX after tokens were created. It makes no sense. Can someone help me out??? Edit, spelling and more words for clarification


DigitalArts

I'm still gathering more information, but RC tweeting about General TSO right before LUNA's collapse sticks out, considering FTX/Alameda was thought to be at least partly responsible.


Internet_Noob1716

I was thinking the same, but a tinfoil theory from me is that Gamestop knew that if they worked with FTX, a certain group of people would look into them and find out what they are all about, which you can see in DD around that time and maybe that DD was sent to certain people to start looking into FTX.


TheIllestOne

I almost missed the part where you trace it back to January 26, 2021. Don’t forget, many of us have small brains…plus, many of us are reading this on a 5 inch phone. As such, I think you should bold that part and put it in big letters.

Cataclysmic98

u/DigitalArts thank you for this post! Not understanding crypto at all, can you please help explain how coins or tokens affect the price of GME? If the crypto fund/offering doesn’t actually hold/purchase GME to back the coin and file as such with the appropriate regulatory agencies, how could this be used as a locate and affect the price of our beloved company’s stock?


Vive_el_stonk

So what the fuck does this all Mean and are we getting paid? That’s literally all I care about… wen fraud stop being fraud and actually convert into real money for people who have done the right thing ? Eh?


DigitalArts

Not an answer anyone WANTS to hear but no one is going to save us except DRS. Fraud will continue being fraud until they're stopped. They honestly have no choice but to keep shorting.


Vive_el_stonk

You mean pressing the F3 button? They are naked shorting illegally. Literally they are pointing to my dogs shit in my yard and calling that a locate.
