Gemini Earn is another major blow in the crypto CEX.

The announcement was made this early morning about the withdrawal halt on the Gemini Earn program.

Gemini is one of the early crypto venture businesses that had large sums of Bitcoin in the early days.

It got a reputation because it provided services to institutional investors rather than retail investors at the beginning of the early days of the crypto business.

The Earn program halt of withdrawal is a major blow of their reputation because not only will people leave the app and remove all their crypto whether they will back out of service or not.

Part of the problem of Earn program is from Genesis Trading Firm. They are focusing on institutional investors. How come such a professional firm goes down quickly? Because of the failure investments on both 3AC and FTX.

But more importantly, they are owned by DCG or Digital Currency Group which is also owned the Grayscale.

They had 6 ETFs: the Bitcoin Cash, the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust, the Grayscale Ethereum Trust, the Grayscale Ethereum Classic Trust, the Grayscale Digital Large Cap Fund, and the Grayscale Litecoin Trust.

If they are going down, everything is down and will drag institutional investors and the traditional market.

The question is not if they would fail but what will be the consequence of failing.

Unlike the traditional market with the Fed backup to prevent failure, the crypto market is due to free fall.

Crypto lending is a scam after all and CEX lending just exposes its weakness.

If FTX blow is a major blow, Genesis insolvency will be bigger than FTX. It pretty much can end the CEX in the US.

Regulations and licensing are nothing to prevent the fall of these companies and their greed from attracting more customers' funds and wasting on unsuccessful investments like 3AC and FTX.

It will mark the end of the crypto adoption and institutional investments in the crypto space.
