Chef Nomi of SushiSwap (SUSHI) Apologizes, Returns $14M in Ethereum

Did the FBI Have Anything to Do With It? Chef Sushi’s actions come days after SushiSwap investors were advised to lawyer up and contact the FBI with regards to getting justice.

Calls to prosecute Chef Nomi were initiated by Preston Byrne, a technology, media and Bitcoin lawyer who pointed out SushiSwap as a token, is a regulated security.

Below is Mr. Byrne’s tweets explaining these facts.

Chef Nomi Returns $14M of ETH

With regards to returning all the Ethereum – 38,000 ETH – he had gained by selling his Sushi, Chef Nomi sent it back and requested the SushiSwap community to determine his compensation as the creator of SushiSwap. Below is his tweet providing the Ethereum transaction for verification.

  • Chef Nomi of SushiSwap has apologized for selling all his Sushi for ETH worth $14M
  • He further explained his actions were driven by greed
  • Chef Nomi has returned all the ETH back to the SushiSwap treasury
  • He has requested the SushiSwap community to decide what compensation he deserves as the creator of SushiSwap

In a dramatic plot twist, the creator of SushiSwap has taken to Twitter to apologize for his earlier actions of selling all his SUSHI for ETH in what many saw as an exit scam. Chef Nomi further added that he was returning all the Ethereum he had earned from selling his SUSHI and would let the SushiSwap community decide what amount of compensation he deserved.
