According to Zhu Su, SBF was on the board of embattled DCG's subsidiary, Genesis, which later granted the first <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/coins\/ftx-token\/\">FTT<\/a>-backed loan.<\/p>\n<p>Over the past year, Genesis <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/research-genesis-received-over-1b-worth-of-ftt-from-alameda-ftx-in-last-3-months\/\">received<\/a> billions of FTT tokens from Alameda Research and FTX, both of which have collapsed.<\/p>\n<p>Zhu added that\u00a0 DCG took substantial losses from the bankruptcy of firms involved in its Grayscale's Bitcoin Trust (GBTC). However, instead of restructuring its businesses, DCG employed misdirection tactics that allowed it to keep operating while insolvent and hoping the market would recover.<\/p>\n<p>Zhu said:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;[DCG] fabricated a left pocket right pocket callable promissory note that magically filled the hole. This is like a kid losing at poker and saying, &#8220;I am fine, my dad will pay you, let me keep playing,&#8221; but if your dad is actually yourself.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The bankrupt hedge fund co-founder said, &#8220;DCG value is 0.&#8221; He added that FTX creditors have a case of fraudulent conveyance on Alameda's capital returns to Genesis. He claimed:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;<span style=\"color: #333333;\">Genesis creditors will push it into bankruptcy and take remaining dcg assets in coming days either way, they are likely demanding Barry pays back his cashouts the easy way instead of waiting for a DoJ criminal case with restitution punishments.&#8221;<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<div data-testid=\"cellInnerDiv\">\n<div class=\"css-1dbjc4n r-1adg3ll r-1ny4l3l\">\n<div class=\"css-1dbjc4n\">\n<div class=\"css-1dbjc4n\">\n<article class=\"css-1dbjc4n r-1loqt21 r-18u37iz r-1ut4w64 r-1ny4l3l r-1udh08x r-1qhn6m8 r-i023vh r-o7ynqc r-6416eg\" role=\"article\" aria-labelledby=\"id__9qz8iuaiyh id__06o659hkaocu id__2cwr6pwm76y id__of46layqnfh id__h2x4ue0xikd id__vw9ubj7jdh id__evzlms3q96u id__reory8dr6zs id__c1vt5792p8c id__k5p84wjt0e id__14qytysq7h3 id__qk1t30ph2tp id__y4z5q6whpr id__0hc0a621md5e id__s7biajh7ike id__x8zrkpyokpe id__nuji4jfpzkf id__jdmjsifmlfb id__kb3ztqtwqd\" data-testid=\"tweet\">\n<div class=\"css-1dbjc4n r-eqz5dr r-16y2uox r-1wbh5a2\">\n<div class=\"css-1dbjc4n r-16y2uox r-1wbh5a2 r-1ny4l3l\">\n<div class=\"css-1dbjc4n\">\n<div class=\"css-1dbjc4n\">\n<div class=\"css-1dbjc4n r-18u37iz\">Meanwhile, DCG has faced increased scrutiny over its financial health recently.
