The insane story of my LUNA short on FTX

I just published for the first time a dispute I had with FTX in May 2022 where I uncovered many red flags: https://medium.com/@pedr0fr/the-insane-story-of-my-luna-short-on-ftx-d2079d4feb60

TLDR; I was short squeezed on the 13th of May because I couldn't close my short position due to a 99.9 million unit trade limit on FTX (only $100 when LUNA crashed!). I lost $34,000 but after one week of making pressure to be refunded they finally did it. It seems that they simply updated my USD balance on their database, which is a bad practice.

EDIT: Is there a group for discussing the FTX bankruptcy and prosecution of SBF? I didn't lose any money but want to help if I can.
