It is part of what they were doing, part of their investment strategy to grow the funds that were invested with them was to nfts such as "cryptodickbutt #1462". Look it up if you don't believe me.

Yes, I'm sure that Terra/Luna was a big part of it, and you're right that it's worth calling out, it may even have been the single biggest factor. But it wasn't the only way 3AC squandered invested funds.

Perhaps Terra/Luna should be called out as the first domino to fall, it was indeed spectacular. If it was a ponzi it was a complex one with extra steps, an algorithmic stablecoin that was metastable at best, and IIRC a lending protocol that charged less for loans than it paid for deposits. All sorts of crazy.

But 3AC still invested in dickbutt...




That cryptodickbutt is probably one of their best investments.

I can't see how much they paid for it, it was a transfer. Maybe someone sent it to them as a joke, who knows.

In any case, it was around the time they were created, so easily it 20x to today's price.

I guess they should have invested more in cryptodickbutts.

Look it up if you don't believe me.


I will, but that just makes the whole thing more utterly ridiculous.


rule 37 on bigfoot?
