As a outcome, for the duration of 2021-2022, Mr. McCaffrey obtained 3 loans from Alameda Research with a complete worth of $43 million. The initially loan was $twelve million to purchase back shares in this information web site, generating him the biggest shareholder and taking more than as CEO. The 2nd loan is really worth $15 million to preserve The Block operational, and the third loan is really worth $sixteen million in 2022 to purchase serious estate in the Bahamas – exactly where FTX is headquartered – Alameda.

Notably, all of the loans have been manufactured secretly concerning Michael McCaffrey and Alameda Research personally, not disclosed to anybody at The Block.

Bobby Moran, the present CFO of The Block, will substitute Mr. McCaffrey as CEO. McCaffrey will also stage down from The Block’s board but will retain his vast majority stake in the information web site.

Most of The Block’s employees have been amazed by the aforementioned revelation. Frank Chapparo, a well-liked reporter for The Block on the crypto local community on Twitter, mentioned he was “shocked and betrayed” by the former CEO.

Immediately, criticism of The Block surfaced with articles or blog posts biased in the direction of FTX and unfavorable to other exchanges, like a statement from Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao.

I’ve generally wondered if we ever did something incorrect to piss off The Block, as they’ve been tough on us for no obvious purpose. It all helps make sense now.
