Insolvent crypto firms have sparked a wave of bailout euphoria, is this the right way for the sector?

SBF is rescuing insolvent crypto companies left and right. Now CZ and Justin Sun want to get involved. However, none of this is very healthy for the sector.

Rescue missions of insolvent crypto companies in full swing

FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried rushed to save failing crypto firms during the current crash so quickly that now his rivals are taking note and want to enter the race for the rescue.

Last month, FTX provided a $250 million loan to crypto lender BlockFi. A day later, Alameda Research, another SBF company, extended a $500 million loan to Voyager Digital. Two weeks later, FTX agreed to acquire BlockFi outright. And last week, SBF told Reuters that FTX still had several billion to bail out other companies.

It's hard to see this as a positive for the cryptocurrency sector.

Generální ředitel Binance CZ kritizoval záchranný balíček Voyageru a uvedl: „Nikdy bych takový obchod neudělal. Prostě bych do té společnosti neinvestoval, své peníze si nechám.“

CZ ale nyní očividně také podlehl záchranné euforii, protože uvedl: „Díváme se na velký počet obchodů uprostřed krize kryptolikvidity a některé z nich jsou skutečně dobré obchody. Takže myslím, že i my budeme investovat a zachráníme několik projektů.“

Also Tron CEO Justin Sun he said The Block, that he is ready to pay $5 billion to help failing crypto companies.

But these bailouts don't seem like a healthy way out of the current crypto market crisis.

Celsius, BlockFi, Voyager and other crypto lenders that promised high returns on user deposits always seemed too good to be true and they were. They had bad business models that assumed an "up only" market environment. Do they deserve to be saved?

Abychom byli spravedliví, jak zdůraznil CZ, pro uživatele je lepší, aby společnosti, které své finanční prostředky ještě drží, byly koupeny, než aby skončily. „To znamená, že uživatelé nepřijdou o peníze nebo doufejme, že ztratí méně peněz,“ řekl.

CZ published it recently, on June 23 blog post, ve kterém prohlásil: „Neudržujte špatné společnosti. Nechte je zkrachovat.“ It creates a tendency to think that the current crypto winter will wipe out the weak players, and strong companies and projects will survive; the grain is separated from the chaff. But CZ has obviously changed its mind in this regard.
