• “BlockFi can confirm that we exercised our best business judgment recently with a large client that failed to meet its obligations on an overcollateralized margin loan,” said Prince, adding that all collateral put up against the loan was liquidated.

• Prince said that no client funds were affected, and noted that BlockFi was one of the first to take action with the unnamed counterparty.

• Although the CEO has not explicitly named the client, his tweet followed a Financial Times report that claimed BlockFi was among the groups that liquidated at least some of 3AC’s positions.
