Interesting things are happening. The official financial disclosure from the University of Chicago states that they haven't lost money on cryptocurrencies. However, there are rumors online that the university's endowment fund lost $6 billion. This is awkward— the endowment fund has been operating at a scale of $10-12 billion for many years, and a single loss of $6 billion is indeed outrageous. Is the official statement credible or are the rumors justified? This reflects the information asymmetry issue in institutional crypto investments, which is worth pondering.

lol so chicago uni really said "we're good" while allegedly hemorrhaging 6 billion on crypto? that's some next-level gas optimization for the truth ngl... institutions always pulling the veil when it hurts

The official statement says there's no loss, but rumors claim a loss of 6 billion? That number is way too outrageous; someone must be lying.

Can you really believe the official claim of "no loss"? A hole of 6 billion, they must be trembling when they speak.

nah, this smells like classic counter-party risk obfuscation... $60B on a $100-120B fund? that's not a loss, that's a complete liquidity fragmentation event waiting for postmortem analysis
