In the midst of 3AC’s bankruptcy proceedings, members of the community have repeatedly taken to social media to express their discontent with the actions of the 3AC team. On January 3, 3AC founder Su Zhu was questioned on Twitter when he accused Digital Currency Group (DCG) of conspiring with exchange FTX to attack LUNA. Zhu’s efforts to denounce DCG and FTX backfired, with community members urging him to focus on his own misdeeds.
On February 10, members of the cryptocurrency community attacked the newly launched exchange backed by 3AC and Coinflex. Community members were infuriated by the launch, with some swearing never to trade on the exchange and harassing those who do.
