Recently, an EOS fan named 서리 in South Korea found a shareholder of B1 through analysis of Colin’s Twitter sent a few days ago, using 240,000 BTC as clues. Let us take a look at this interesting process of solving the case!
The translation is as follows:
Today, in Collin’s tweet, we found 240,000 Bitcoins.
But it is well known that Block.one owns 140,000 Bitcoins. Recently, Brendan suggested that Block.one owns more Bitcoins and said that they are using the #eos tag to test Pro-Fi services internally.
Go back to Collin’s tweet and see where the information about the 240,000 BTC holdings comes from?
According to observations, Voice user Cryptohypo said:
The person labeled @C_Angermayer is a shareholder of Block.one, and Block.one claimed to have more than 240,000 BTC in a German podcast on the 18th.
Following this clue, we came to Twitter and found Twitter user Christiam Engelmeyer.
It is reported that this Twitter user Christiam Engelmeyer is a shareholder of Block.one, and he visited Block.one’s branch in Virginia before the b1 June event last year and left the following tweet. In other words, he can be called an insider and investor of Block.one.
After getting this news, let’s check if this person is a real shareholder of Block.one. First, let’s go to his website.
As a European company, it invests in multiple areas, but you can confirm that it is investing in the blockchain industry, especially through its subsidiaries in the crypto industry
Following the vine, let us enter Cryptology again. I checked the team and found Christiam Engelmeyer in the consulting section, and you can also see the familiar Mike Novogratz.
Next, let us look at the portfolio, Block.one is listed.
It is worth noting that another company called NORTHERN DATA. Prior to this, on July 3, 2020, the company announced a strategic cooperation with Block.one, and signed a 180MW computing power scale, which was subsequently expanded to 300 MW. This news provided clues to Block.one’s participation in EOSIO and Bitcoin mining, so we found the company’s release in March 2020
Block.one was introduced in the core equity investment introduction: Block One was introduced as the creator of EOSIO and EOS tokens and announced as the issuer of Voice. And, as you know, it is a company that completed a $4 billion ICO.
Let’s go back to the back for a more detailed explanation.
Cryptology independently owns 2.44% of Block.one, plus 1.1% obtained through a third party, and it owns a total of 3.54% of the shares.
And the interesting part is: Block.one has several main products under development, and some products will not be released in March 2020. What is it? When I am on the Cryptology website, let’s see more material. Who owns Cryptology? I am curious about this.
We see APEIRON Group, Christian’s investment company. Novograz investment company Galaxy Digital VC also owns 7% of Cryptology. Therefore, Novograz also made an indirect investment in Block.one through Cryptology.
Withdrawing our thoughts, let us return to Christian Twitter: this person is not only a shareholder of Block.one, but also a holder of EOS tokens.
As a shareholder, Christian must have a clear understanding of Block.one’s business plan, so he knows that Block.one has more than 240,000 bitcoins.
We also found that this friend also posted a tweet about Google Cloud’s participation in the EOS node, in which he said he was an early investor in Block.one.
Now, let us organize all the above information.
Christiam Engelmeyer, a friend, is one of the shareholders who can closely monitor all the actions of Block.one. He is also an avid supporter of EOS. As for why this friend is still full of confidence in EOS, apart from the reason that EOS is really good, I can’t think of other answers.
