As in final week’s letter, Winklevoss pins the blame for Genesis’s failures on Silbert.
“In June 2022, the music stopped. 3AC collapsed, laying naked the toxic fruits of this radioactive commerce. As a substitute of stepping as much as clear up this self-created downside, and regardless of having earned greater than a billion {dollars} in charges — all on the expense of Genesis lenders — Barry refused to take duty. As a substitute, he resorted to committing fraud to guard his ill-gotten beneficial properties.”
In the end, Winklevoss asks the DCG board to fireplace Silbert with the intention to preserve some kind of path ahead.
“The Path Ahead. For all the explanations talked about above, there is no such thing as a path ahead so long as Barry Silbert stays CEO of DCG. He has confirmed himself unfit to run DCG and unwilling and unable to discover a decision with collectors that’s each honest and cheap. Consequently, Gemini, performing on behalf of 340,000 Earn customers, requests that the Board take away Barry Silbert as CEO, efficient instantly, and set up a brand new CEO, who will proper the wrongs that occurred beneath Barry’s watch.
Genesis lenders, together with Earn customers, have been significantly harmed and deserve a decision for the restoration of their property. I’m assured that with new administration at DCG, we will all work collectively to attain a optimistic, out-of-court answer that can present a win-win end result for all, together with DCG shareholders.”
Not like final week, Silbert himself has not responded. As a substitute, the DCG Twitter account defended Silbert and their group.
“That is one other determined and unconstructive publicity stunt from [Winklevoss] to deflect blame from himself and Gemini, who’re solely chargeable for working Gemini Earn and advertising and marketing this system to its prospects.
We’re preserving all authorized treatments in response to those malicious, faux, and defamatory assaults.
DCG will proceed to have interaction in productive dialogue with Genesis and its collectors with the objective of arriving at an answer that works for all events.”
