SBF is the owner of both ALAMEDA research and FTX. alameda ruled that they could never be liquidated on ftx, using this strategy alameda illegally shorted celsius multi-billion dollar cel token treasury via counterfeit tokens offshore.
Influential figures such as SBF, Max Keiser, and KEVIN O'LEARY alongside less notable market goons Cory Klippsten, Mike Alfred, and Dixon were all involved in a defamation scandal resulting in billions withdrawn from the platform snowballing over the course of a year where Celsius needed to enter chp.11 protections.
Notably the fear campaigning picked up in March and intensified until june 12th
(the night of the pause.)

SBF
SBF REPORTED TO BLOOMBERG THAT CELSIUS HAD NO MONEY, MEANWHILE IT WAS FTX WHICH WAS TRULY INSOLVENT.
CELSIUS ALWAYS HAD THE ETHEREUM / ASSETS (EVEN IF ILLIQUID)
SBF told the media that celsius didn't have the ethereum or assets needed to service liquidity obligations toward it's customers. reading the coin report below will show you everything Celsius held in coins, but this does not represent all the value in the estate, far from it.the way a business normally functions is to meet it's liquidity obligations. in this case there will be undeployed assets (for immediate withdrawal) many deployed assets (for yield generation to be withdrawn over time) and some unrealized illiquid investments, (many of which are not listed on the coin report as they are temporarily not coins.) Things like long-term equity investment, bitcoin mining expansion and physical buildouts of the project itself all contribute to the overall value of any business, and in Celsius case, all this value is always owed to the users 100%, this was made even more apparent with terms and conditions that all of Celsius in whatever form it's value was kept always belonged to it's creditors.The value was never "gone" just simply made illiquid. A business only obligation toward it's customers is to meet it's liquidity obligations, this requires a business to be running and producing value. SBF knew this and yet lied to the media regardless which was one of the core reasons as to why Celsius had become overwhelmed with a massive bank run which perhaps could have been sustained if it weren't also immediately met by an incredibly vicious short-selling attack on Celsius treasury.
DURING A FULL 30 MIN BLOOMBERG DISCUSSION SBF SPREAD NUMEROUS LIES ABOUT CELSIUS NETWORK DEFLECTING ATTENTION AWAY FROM HIMSELF describing the momentum of celsius in a derogatory way.
Bitcoin itself has it's own flywheel momentum.
FLYWHEEL'S SIMPLY DESCRIBE MOMENTUM VISUALLY
The flywheel effect happens when small wins for your business build on each other over time and eventually gain so much momentum that growth almost seems to happen by itself – similar to the momentum created by a flywheel on a rowing machine.
