"title": "Former Alameda employee: Bitcoin on Binance.US fell 87% in 2021 due to Alameda traders’ operational errors",
"description": "A former employee of Alameda named Baradwaj claimed that a trader at the company mistakenly entered the wrong decimal point, causing Bitcoin to plummet by 87% on Binance.US in 2021. On October 21, 2021, Bitcoin traders on Binance.US experienced a sudden drop in just a few minutes, while other Bitcoin markets were operating normally. Bitcoin's price fell from around $65,760 to a low of $8,200 at 11:34 UTC (7:34 am Eastern Time), before quickly rebounding to its previous level. \nAt the time, a spokesperson for Binance.US said that the crash was caused by an error in their \"institutional trader\" trading system. The true identity of the investor is still a mystery, but Baradwaj, a former employee of Alameda Research, has recently tweeted that Alameda may be the cause of the disaster. Baradwaj claimed that although most Alameda trades were executed using algorithms, sometimes traders could manually place orders during market fluctuations or take advantage of profit opportunities, which is why the obvious mistake occurred. \nBaradwaj wrote on Twitter that the trader attempted to sell a batch of BTC based on this news and placed an order through our manual trading system. They ignored several spaces after the decimal point and sold Bitcoin at an extremely low price instead of the market price at the time.",
