I was better off with Coinbase and Binance US. Now using them was the biggest mistake i have made in 2022. I used to love Gemini and support the exchange. Have fun trusting a shitty exchange that has fucked over most of its users. Gemini should step up and help lead sensible standards where there is clear regulatory gaps they're well aware of today. I genuinely want to believe that there are smarter people in this space than some octogenarian representative who probably doesn't even know how email works. But there needs to be better self-imposed standards while Washington fumbles in their own bureaucracy for years and years we can't hold our breath for that, nor should we. You're right - it's all strategy, pros and cons. I think the potential upside gained by taking that stance would be far more profitable in the long run (not only just for Gemini's revenue, but regaining trust in the space holistically) as opposed to abandoning the offering today outright and just get out of the Earn business. Even more reason, as I want to get the message to Gemini, that they have an opportunity to help make it better and set a precedent with these lending places.

This will push things back for years, literally. Which VC / Private Equity will even take a look at another Exchange pitch coming across their desk - it's dead.

With the rapid deterioration of the space, there's fewer and fewer options for customers to go, and less face it - building new ones from scratch today is going to be infinitely more difficult. Even less information for customers to gauge by. It would also be nice to even know Gemini's revenue from Grow/Earn to begin with that won't happen until they go public though. And absolutely, if customers don't like it nothing is stopping them from choosing to go elsewhere. All customers sign off on that buried in the T&C's. I fully agree with you that it's not Gemini's problem if Genesis goes bust.
