    • FTX Official Tweet on JUN 29 2023
    • 2.  Login with your FTX account which had your funds→ Verify your email → Complete KYC

ARKHAM Doxing us

To set some context, Arkham Intelligence is an intelligence platform which tracks on-chain data to give you alpha.

They recently introduced “Intel Bounties”, Now that’s where the angry crypto Twitter is pissed. Let us explain more:

Intel Bounties will let you set up bounties promoting doxing of crypto wallets’ real-world identities.

Arkham Intelligence Tweet by cole0x

This encourages users to link the crypto wallet addresses with the real-world identity of people, while some believe this is violating the fundamentals of web3, others like the CEO said that “Publicly available blockchains are probably the worst possible way of keeping one's private information private.”

On this, heated and more intense concerns were raised that Arkham also tracks its own user’s data including their wallet addresses, device ids, locations, emails etc and binds it together to form on-chain and real-life identities & more including it being backed by Palantir and OpenAI founders

BRO??????? Where was the 🚩 while they announced their beta launch
