Background: The market remained calm for the moment amid hopes of a year-end rally, while the studio stayed busy with game updates. Across the industry, a question still lacked an answer: could the makeup of a trading firm's assets support the confidence placed in it?

Today: CoinDesk revealed Alameda's balance sheet: its USD 14.6 billion in assets were heavily loaded with FTT issued by its affiliated company. The article was only a few hundred words long, like an unlit match tossed into an oil depot. Readers argued over what the figures meant; the market was skeptical and uncertain, and FTT's price did not budge.

Impact and next steps: The report brought an asset mix that few had examined closely into view, but the price gave no clear response that day. The narrator recorded it for now as a question needing explanation. The studio continued its game work, while the scale of the related risk remained to be understood from further information; FTT's stillness alone could not settle it.
