Consumer Narrative

The BlockFi terms of use state that a users wallet is their own property at all times, and not the property of BlockFi. BlockFi, however, has acted as if it is their property and refused to provide access to, withdrawals of, or otherwise has converted users assets contrary to its own terms of use and without authorization of the users. The Wallets should be returned to each own, especially XXXX assets which were represented to be backed 1:1 from instititutions, thereby knowing that the assets can be withdrawn. Any other action by BlockFi is not legal and is akin to fraud, embezzlement, and stealing of user assets -- especially if such assets are being used to finance BlockFi 's other initiatives or financial problems with separate and distinct loans or related transactions.
