The creator of SushiSwap handed over control to the CEO of crypto derivatives exchange FTX.
Chef Nomi, the pseudonymous creator of the Uniswap-like DeFi protocol, today transferred his control to the CEO of crypto exchange FTX, Sam Bankman-Fried.
Nomi had angered the SushiSwap community by withdrawing $13 million from $SUSHI's liquidity pool on decentralized exchange Uniswap. The community, as well as the General Manager of SushiSwap, 0xMaki, turned on him and alleged that he had pulled an exit-scam—something Nomi denied. Then Nomi went to sleep.

Finally awake and forced to confront the mounting outrage, Nomi gave the admin keys to Bankman-Fried, who two hours prior had tweeted: "Nomi sucks and hurt the community," and "If Nomi doesn't step down, it's over for Sushi."
