Iron Finance’s DeFi bank run - and how Mark Cuban got ‘rekted’

[Mahindra]

Price volatility is the norm in crypto markets, but last week saw the price of decentralized finance (DeFi) project Iron Finance’s Titanium (TITAN) token plummeting — from US$64.19 to zero — in a single day. 

Even American billionaire investor Mark Cuban — who had endorsed TITAN in a blog post just days before — was not left unscathed by the token’s crash, taking to Twitter to say “I got hit like everyone else. Crazy part is I got out, thought they were increasing their [total value locked] enough. Than Bam.”

“BTW I wasn’t a backer. I was a liquidity provider. I made money in one [liquidity pool] and then lost money during the bank run on the a second,” said Cuban in another tweet replying to American economist Steve Hanke. Earlier, Hanke had tweeted: “#DeFi tokens are the latest cryptos to take a nose dive. Like @mcuban-backed #TITAN, more and more cryptos will bite the dust and reveal that they are nothing more than highly speculative assets with fundamental values of ZERO!”

Before Titan token’s dramatic collapse, Iron was seeing exponential growth in total value locked, rising from US$30 million on May 20 to US$1.2 billion on June 12.

How did Iron Finance investors, even a supposedly savvy one like Cuban “get rekted,” in crypto parlance — suffer a heavy financial loss caused by a wrong trade or investment.

Whenever any billioniare got rekt, they tag crypto as a scam one. On the other hand, don't need to say anything whenever any billioniare tweets to manipulate the new users and create fomo in crypto.  That's ridiculous . As far titan went to zero as it was used for the collateral of the stablecoin of "IRON". So panic investors redeem those titan when price was at pick point and sell those on hurry. As a result, it went down to zero. That's why everyone got rekt for participating into this defi.
