Odaily Planet Daily News: In its recent report, the decentralized computing network Golem responded to the community's continued concerns after more than 135,000 ETH were transferred to centralized exchanges (CEX). This batch of ETH, worth about $337 million, was sent to centralized exchanges such as Coinbase, Binance, and Bitfinex, and triggered initial speculation about a large-scale sell-off. The Golem report on September 18 assured users that the transfer of 135,000 ETH was not for selling, but for staking testing to ensure operational security and minimize spam interference. The first ETH movement in July caused panic throughout the Golem community, especially after Golem deposited 29,000 ETH to various CEXs in July. Fear-induced frustration began to spread on social media platforms such as the project's Discord, sparking debate among community members questioning CEX's involvement in a separate staking process. Community members accused the team of being vague and avoiding direct answers about the movement of funds, which only got worse after the Golem team promised to respond later. In the report, Golem clarified that the movement of ETH was part of their separate staking to ensure uninterrupted and unhindered operations throughout the process. The team also noted that using a CEX enabled them to establish a “controlled environment” for the process and reduce potential “risks of external trading interference.” Despite Golem’s assurances in its latest report on September 18, the community was impressed by its lack of transparency. X, a user who addressed the community’s concerns, reiterated the report’s clarifications but noted that “an honest community could have avoided this from the beginning.” (Cointelegraph)
