Serious Questions About Shuffle.com (Launched by Former FTX Employee)
-cut-

Quote

1. Noah Dummett's FTX Connection:

1: Noah have been open about this, and spoken about this in his interviews. There's no other "connection" then working for them. And he has worked for bitmex as well, or is that less shady? Their CEO got jailed too. Do you really think that FTX employees haven't already been investigated during the aftermath of the fall? How are we going to do a better job then FBI on this?

2. Anonymous Key Personnel:

Shuffle a private company, and i am pretty sure that they don't need to give names of their employees for the public. It's a matter of security and privacy. You might be able to dig them from some public payroll record, but i don't know how that works in overseas.

3. Potential Operational Similarities to FTX:

Not sure how this would even matter, or how would we get access to this data. And i don't think that any "bonus systems" had anything to do with the fall of ftx.

Immediate Actions for Community and Stakeholders

What do you mean by stakeholders? Just because we play in there or own $shfl, we aren't stakeholders. But by all means, we can demand a lot and transparency never hurt anyone. Just keep in mind that we also need to accept some limits on that, because with companies that are responsible for god knows how big amounts of customers crypto, there has to be ton of privacy and that means less ways to have an access to their "key" employees by social engineering.

I understand that previous employment should not necessarily tarnish one's future career, but Noah Dummett’s involvement with FTX during its collapse raises valid concerns. The scrutiny is not just about his past job, but whether there are problematic practices being carried over to Shuffle.com. It's essential to ensure transparency and ethical practices, especially after such a significant scandal.

Regarding aliases, it's common in the industry to use pseudonyms for various reasons. However, when key personnel involved in financial operations choose to remain anonymous, it can be a cause for concern. The issue here is not just the use of aliases but the complete lack of transparency about the individuals making critical decisions. This isn't about knowing their real names for casual purposes; it's about accountability and trust in those handling user funds.

You suggested contacting Noah directly or looking into company registries for real names, which is a fair point. Transparency can help alleviate some of these concerns. As for relying on the reputation of casinos, it's crucial to remember that reputations can be deceptive. Due diligence and proactive inquiry are necessary, especially when past associations and anonymity are involved.

It's not about raising alarms without cause but ensuring that Shuffle.com operates with the integrity and transparency expected in the crypto community. Yellow flags often go unnoticed until it's too late, so continuous vigilance is crucial.

We have already identified several key issues with Shuffle.com that raise serious concerns:

1. Suspect Financial Transactions:
   - We've found specific addresses involved in high-value transactions that appear suspicious. These include transactions of exactly 145.55447521 tokens, which repeat frequently and raise questions about potential money laundering activities.

2. Cam's Disrespectful Conduct:
   - Cam, one of the key figures at Shuffle.com, has shown a blatant disregard for the well-being of players, particularly those struggling with gambling addiction. It's deeply troubling that Cam's actions suggest he might even take pleasure in the suffering caused by addiction, which is morally reprehensible.

3. Secrecy and Lack of Transparency:
   - The use of aliases by key personnel, such as Cam and Brett, coupled with the complete lack of transparency about their identities, is highly suspicious. This secrecy prevents any form of accountability and trust in the platform's operations.

4. Potential Replication of FTX's Problematic Practices:
   - Given Noah's history with FTX, there is a significant risk that Shuffle.com might be using similar operational strategies that led to FTX's collapse. This includes questionable bonus systems and user fund management practices.
