• what the “corporate veil” is and why it matters regarding 3AC
• where retail investors stand in the pecking order of creditors 
• why Adam doesn’t believe we know the full story about 3AC’s downfall, despite liquidators leaking a 1,000-page report about it
• what creditors might do with 3AC’s yacht
• why Adam is less worried about the health of GBTC in light of recent 3AC filings
• what effect 3AC’s fall will have on Genesis and Digital Currency Group
• why creditors might prefer liquidations to be paid out in equity compared to cash in this environment 
• how 3AC’s liquidation is impacting retail investors at Voyager and Celsius
• why there could be a crypto credit crunch coming soon
