Delaware Based Firm Stablegains Accused Of Exploiting Its Customers Amidst Luna/UST Collapse

Stablegains Attracts Trouble

Stablegains, a Delaware-based investment company is in deep trouble considering that the firm has been accused of deceiving its customers into investing USD or USDC by offering them a 15% yield. The company is being called out on social media for its deceptive practices, with accusations outlining that the firm had lost nearly $42 million worth of investors’ money. 

Upon further investigation, a Twitter user brought forth interesting insights accusing the firm of investing the client’s funds into Anchor protocol without their knowledge. The user further outlined details, adding that Stablegains collected funds in USD and USDC from its customers, by promising them a 15% yield on their invested amount.  

Yikes. @stablegains took USDC and USD via wire from customers promising them 15%, put it all into Anchor without telling them, and skimmed 4% off the top. They have now changed the denominations in their app from USD to UST and are nuking the landing page & old terms. (1/2) pic.twitter.com/D6sVOI2bRG

The company has also been accused of earning 4% profits amidst all this, attracting more heat from the investors. According to several available sources on Twitter, nearly 4,878 users have collectively lost a staggering $42 million worth of funds in the process. 

These guys are in deep trouble – they lost about $42m in funds from 4,878 customers and probably have no way to pay it back (they're a small startup) because they went all in on Anchor's invincibility. Conviction bets are great, but not when toying with people's savings. (2/2) pic.twitter.com/p9S5uFILoF

The firm is also accused of changing its website and landing page formats that no longer promise attractive yields to the investors as well as making changes to the denominations signaling discernible online malfeasance.

Dear @stablekwon, on behalf of our 5k users, can we also get our wallet whitelisted for full compensation? See https://t.co/B8TgWmfkQj

Finally, please note we have not benefited or profited in the current situation as a company or individually. We have lost too.
