What "events of the past weeks" does this refer to?
- BlackFingolfin 6y agoBoon was/is part of Wirecard, which blew up last month as major fraud came to light; see e.g. https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/how-german-fintech-darling-wirecard-fell-from-grace/2020/06/23/6278e336-b564-11ea-9a1d-d3db1cbe07ce_story.html https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/how-german-fintech-d... or just google for "Wirecard"
