UPDATE: Yet again Genesis is admitting to hundreds of millions in losses on FTX, despite initially falsely denying exposure with fancy technical lawyer speak. Withdraw your loans to them, we dont know how deep this really goes or if they are solvent anymo

As part of our goal in providing transparency around this week’s market events, the Genesis derivatives business currently has ~$175M in locked funds in our FTX trading account. This does not impact our market-making activities.

We want to provide an update on where things currently stand with our lending business. In anticipation of the extreme market volatility yesterday, we hedged and sold collateral resulting in a total loss of ~$7M across all counterparties, including Alameda.

Below is an analysis of their tweet information that was posted on reddit on the 9th of November when genesis was still being deceptive about their losses Link to the Previous Reddit thread: https://old.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/yqq49d/after_denying_exposure_yesterday_today_genesis/

Genesis has no material exposure to FTT

Translation: We have no direct exposure to FTT but our borrowers who have our money do have exposure to FTT.

Genesis has no lending relationship with FTX

Translation: We have a lending relationship with Alameda which is the same thing as FTX.

Genesis has a trading relationship with FTX, amongst other exchanges. Our exposure to FTX has no impact on our ability to serve our clients.

Translation: We do have trading exposure to FTX (most likely assets on the exchange that cannot be withdrawn due to insolvency) but we arent insolvent yet, unless all customers request their funds back from Genesis. And we still pay workers to come in and answer phones.

our balance sheet remains strong

Translation: On paper we can use tricks to make it look like we arent insolvent yet even though we dont have the actual assets anymore and the borrowers have defaulted.

95% of the collateral in our lending book is comprised of USD/stables, BTC, and ETH

Translation: However we gave many loans with no collateral at all, that were based on the balance sheets of the borrowers, who had FTT and other now worthless coins on their balance sheets which fooled us into giving them loans. Also when we do liquidate all our loans we will Dump ETH and BTC into oblivion because 95% of margin loans are backed by these 2 assets.

These guys are liars and dont want a bank run, which could result in their insolvency. Going from $0 to $7 million in losses, might not sound like a lot, the issue is that they are lying and hiding behind balance sheets backed by worthless stuff, even for example Alamedas balance sheet, which looks "strong" but was backed by FTT tokens. So while Genesis may deny having FTT on their balance sheet, they gave loans to balance sheets of other companies that were completely backed by fake printable tokens and are not saying how many millions, or hundreds of millions in losses they may be facing.
