I’m a theoretical physics student at Imperial College London. I held the vast majority of my net worth that I accumulated over the last two years by diligently investing a few thousand dollars which I made from tutoring in UST. The depeg happened during my final Bachelor’s degree exams so I didn’t have enough time to think carefully about the situation and take action (it’s very difficult to sell a stablecoin for a loss without thinking long and hard about it, which I could not afford to do).

I could’ve been safer and held most of my money in USDC, but as most of us here can understand, a crash of this magnitude and the entire ecosystem basically evaporating into nothing seemed very farfetched a prior to May 9.

My aim is to try my best to help USTC holders get compensation past a vested volatile asset.
