🌕 A Terrable Week

Well that was a completely insane week, wasn’t it? We had the full collapse of the Terra ecosystem (both LUNA and UST effectively went to 0) and the fallout from this was a market-wide sell-off. The craziest thing for me was that we actually saw a blockchain “die” as its security was compromised due to the fall in LUNA price and the chain was halted to prevent attacks. Anyway, I wrote more about this here - I hope none of you were effected by the fallout of this - but in some way we all were!

Have a great week everyone!
- Anthony
