Gemini Earn Users Are Unhappy With the Crypto Exchanges Withdrawal Halt

Every time that Eric Asquith has opened up his Gemini crypto exchange account over the past month, he’s been greeted with the same message: “Pending.”

Asquith, a 41-year old lawyer based in Boxford, Massachusetts, held $1 million in Gemini Trust Co.’s Earn product, attracted by the potential for generating as much as 8% in interest on his holdings. In mid-November, though, founders Tyler and Cameron Winklevoss suddenly halted redemptions after a key partner, Genesis Global, became ensnared in the crypto contagion caused by the implosion of Sam Bankman-Fried’s FTX.
