In the latest update of the rumors surrounding LUNA’s market collapse, all parties involved in the allegations have publicly denied any involvement. The companies in question are Gemini, BlackRock, and Citadel. The rumor mill started after messages appeared on 4chan and Telegram accusing the three companies of market manipulation.

Gemini, through their Twitter account, publicly denied the allegations.

BlackRock and Citadel both followed suit in denying the allegations. BlackRock Spokesperson Logan Kofflet said, “Rumors that BlackRock had a role in the collapse of UST are categorically false. In fact, BlackRock does not trade UST.” Similarly, a Citadel Spokesperson told a reliable source that, “Citadel Securities does not trade stablecoins, including UST.”

This could be seen as Charles Hoskinson himself deleted his initial tweet of the allegations after Gemini denied any involvement. Similarly, Dogecoin Founder Billy Markus took a sarcastic jab highlighting the absurdity of the allegations.

More fuel was added to the fire when Charles Hoskinson – in a now-deleted tweet – shared the rumors with his Twitter followers.
