Omar Dhanani
Bio
- Aka Omar Dhanani or 0xSifu
"ZachXBT forced Sesta into admitting the identity of his CFO, 0xSifu. Michael Patryn, formerly Omar Dhanani, was the co-founder of QuadrigaCX, notorious for their fraudulent activity and the mysterious disappearance of founder Gerald Cotten. Separate from his involvement in Quadriga, Patryn also pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit credit card fraud, burglary, grand larceny, and computer fraud. Sifu had already become hilariously rich through Wonderland, as well as his previous crimes, why feel the need to continue? Why did Sesta risk his reputation to work with this kind of character?
Sifu first became known after the Ruler/Cover fiasco when he dumped the treasury on Yearn. Sifu was to blame for a lot of it yet faced lots of backlash at the time. According to Dani they met when Sifu DM’d him as an early Abracadabra investor. They exchanged ideas and slowly started to work together over time."
