I have exposure about that great (in cost basis) to gemini--about half of that in their stable coin--and I'm pondering whether I'm too exposed.
I mostly got out of BlockFi as soon as the Celsius news broke. I had money at BlockFi and at Gemini, but kept my money at Gemini and still do. I actually feel for BlockFi because they did everything right with collateralization with 3AC and quickly liquidated those positions when it appears 3AC was outright lying about assets to every CeFi company. The combo of Celsius panic, plus a one-way exit from the platform with the SEC ruling earlier, made for a nasty bank run with no way for people to get back in until SEC approval. Anyway, I still have money at Gemini because the lend exclusively to Genesis. Genesis DID take a hit from 3AC

From what I gather, BlockFi was fully collateralized or overcollateralized with 3AC, but part of that collateral was GBTC, which was trading at 30% discount to NAV...so I guess not as collateralized as they originally were with there was a premium to NAV? At least, that's what I gather from posts and podcasts. Celsius felt like a ticking time bomb to me from the beginning. What I can't understand with Voyager, is why they would lend $650m to 3AC with zero collateral. Really? One single point of failure? Makes no sense
Right now my cash bucket looks like this:
10% checking
40% online savings
50% Gemini - GUSD
I might do more DeFi / smart contract / overcollateralized stuff like Notional.Finance as well. It takes the human folly part out of the equation at least (well, other than bad code), but I'm not sure I want the headache of keeping track of taxes with that or staking yet.
I feel for anyone who got burned by Celsius, Voyager, Vauld, Babel, etc. Not sure CeFi recovers
