IDKFAIRL I'm fairly sure that whatever I'll say is not going to convince you that MMs are not "snakes", and thta's fine - one cannot convince every die-hard "on the internet". But I can try to explain my arguments to others, who might take your comments too seriously.
If we borrow gOHM, shorting it would give us upside in case market cap of olympus goes down, but would expose us to (potentially infinite if gOHM lists way above $69,420) downside if it goes up. This is an assymetric bet I personally think is rather dangerous to take, but sure if we were bearish we could do it. You are right that a loan in OHM is more straightforward as it can be trading at 2 dollars in 6 months time, although a better opportunity would still be staking it and selling the proceeds. That being said you main assumption is that both Wintermute and GSR are bad actors in crypto, an assumption you dont feel a need to validate. I know there are a lot of shady actors who call themselves "market makers", but they are all tiny compared to us and we also have much to lose from doing shady stuff, primarily our reputation. I challenge you to find evidence that either of us did something bad (including, for example,price manipulation as you alleged on discord), or otherwise shut up🙃 So far you are the only one claiming proficiency with "tools of the trade" that both Wintermute and GSR quite publicly condemn
