Just found a super funny paper by Jay Ritter, tldr:

- For some period small firms outperformed big firms in a few days in early January
- Some finance profs tried to exploit this by taking a long-"value line" (heavy small stocks) index futures, short SP 500 index futures

Looks like someone has turned these unicorns into zero-beta zero-volatility assets in recent months. Remarkable. Stablecorns? 🤣

[Bill Gurley @bgurley]

Ironic that one of the tenants in crypto is you don’t need to trust anyone because it’s all “on chain.” Yet everyone that lost money in FTX (both customers and investors) deviated from that construct. Neither FTX investments or customer assets were “on chain.” (More).
