YC invested in what was clearly an outright fraud? Or did they pivot do hard that nobody noticed?

A poor decision does not equal fraud.

Promising a guaranteed 15% return is fraud. There is no place in reality where you can * guarantee * that kind of return.

They explain the risks on their website: https://stablegains.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/4402687751...

They explain the risks, while excluding the risk of, you know, the stablecoin depegging.

This is like the 10th algo stablecoin to eat shit. You would think by now, a risk person could adequately describe these existential risks.

Stablegains was a rent collecting middleman. The risks are not characterized adequately on this page, and there ought to be some level of liability.

They added a much more reasonable risk explanation after the event happened. Click the link that the submission is. Look at the before and after pictures
