The founder of Fintech Block (formerly Square) and co-founder of the social network Twitter, Jack Dorsey, after the release of the Hindenburg Research investigation, lost $526 million, or 11% of his fortune, in one day. Now it is estimated at about $4.4 billion, Bloomberg calculated.
Dorsey has invested most of his money in Block. The businessman’s stake in fintech, according to Bloomberg, is estimated at $3 billion. For comparison, Dorsey’s stake in Twitter is worth $388 million. Meanwhile, according to the results of trading on Thursday, March 23, Block shares fell 14.8%, to piece. During the session itself, the drop in the moment reached 22%.
Fintech stocks began to fall sharply after the publication of an investigation by Hindenburg Research. The latter claims that the payment platform overestimated the number of its users and underestimated the cost of customer acquisition.
Hindenburg Research experts also pointed out that Block's flagship application, the Cash App, is highly popular, among other things, due to servicing customers involved in illegal activities, writes RBC. The report said that former Block employees estimated that between 40% and 75% of the accounts they viewed were fake, involved in fraud, or additional accounts associated with one person.
“Block has ignored internal and external warnings that multiple individuals using the same bank account number to receive public funds is a clear red flag that indicates fraud,” says Hindenburg Research.
She estimates that billions of dollars have been illegally obtained through the app as a result.
Hindenburg Research, which specializes in finding violations in public companies in order to capitalize on the collapse of their shares, announced the opening of short positions against Block.

Research has revealed the ability of zebrafish to empathize and comfort relatives. This is stated in an article published in the journal Science.
Biologists have found that fish can feel fear if the individuals next to them are frightened. It is clarified that for the manifestation of empathy, they need oxytocin, a chemical that underlies the ability to empathize in humans.
Thus, the behavior of fish with deleted genes associated with the production and absorption of oxytocin was antisocial, because they could not detect the anxiety of relatives. However, after injections of oxytocin, their ability to sense and reflect the feelings of other fish was restored.
It is also noted that zebrafish pay special attention to fish that have previously experienced stress.
Earlier it became known about the discovery of a gene that allows growing GM crops that are resistant to climate change and global warming. The researchers studied 436 lines of field-grown corn using laser ablation tomography.

Fintech company Jack Dorsey Block (formerly Square) plunged more than 20% on Thursday amid a new Hindenburg Research report. At the low of the day, paper on the New York Stock Exchange were worth $ 56.5 apiece - this is 22.2% cheaper than at the close of trading on March 22.
Hindenburg Research is a company of activist investors who professionally expose public companies. Hindenburg previously targeted Indian billionaire Gautam Adani's conglomerate Adani Enterprises, which lost about $100 billion in capitalization following the whistleblower report.
Hindenburg stated that it had been investigating Block's activities for two years and, as a result, took a short position on the shares (that is, made a bet on their decline). The company's report alleges that the Block-developed Cash App missed "red flags" of potential fraud, contributing to billions of dollars in pandemic benefit scams.
