The record

From 83 activities · Apr 2026

Avraham Eisenberg orchestrated the $110 million Mango Markets exploit in 2022 through price manipulation and collateral inflation, and pleaded guilty to possession of over 1,200 images and videos of child sexual abuse material, including content depicting toddlers. He served approximately four years in prison and has since attempted to re-engage with the crypto community, but faces overwhelming community rejection due to both the financial exploitation and the severity of his criminal convictions. While some acknowledge his technical understanding of DeFi mechanics and game theory, trust in crypto depends fundamentally on integrity, and his documented conduct has made him one of the most controversial and widely distrusted figures in the space.

“Worth Keeping on My Radar”I've been following @avi_eisen for a while, and my experience has been positive overall. The posts are generally thoughtful and focused on what's happening in the crypto space without trying too hard to grab attention. I don't always agree with every take, but I appreciate the consistency and the different perspective. It's an account I don't mind keeping on my timeline to stay informed.

“Send this guy again to jail”Took a look at the profile, and the negative reviews aren't surprising. It's the same Avraham Eisenberg associated with the Mango Markets exploit. The reviews point to court records stating that he pleaded guilty to possessing child sexual abuse material involving more than a thousand images and videos, including material depicting toddlers. After serving time, he's now attempting to re-enter Crypto.

“বুদ্ধি যখন ভুল পথে ব্যবহার হয়”Avraham Eisenberg এর কাজ আমার কাছে ইতিবাচক মনে হয়নি। Skill থাকলেও সেটার এমন ব্যবহার আমি সমর্থন করি না।

“Web3 enthusiasts”Avraham Eisenberg is one of the most interesting follows on X for anyone into crypto markets, mechanism design, DeFi exploits (the analytical kind), and game-theoretic takes on incentives. Self-described "applied game theorist," he delivers a steady stream of insightful, contrarian, and often technically deep posts that cut through hype.

“Such people have to be stopped at any cost, otherwise they will destroy us, which you people have never even imagined.”He's the guy who manipulated Mango Markets in 2022 and drained them of $110 million. He was later found guilty by a US court on charges of fraud and market manipulation (April 2024). Despite this, he's still active on X and continues to discuss DeFi, game theory, and other topics. How is this possible?

“Overwhelmingly Negative Community Reputation”Avraham Eisenberg is viewed overwhelmingly negatively across the Web3 community due to his role in the Mango Markets exploit and his subsequent criminal convictions. Community discussions consistently reference these events, with many emphasizing transparency around his legal history and opposing any attempt to rehabilitate his public reputation within the crypto industry.

“CT”One of the more interesting follows in the quant/crypto intersection. Sharp mind, entertaining voice, and genuinely curious about markets and systems. Follow for the insights and occasional chaos. Just don’t expect hand-holding or financial advice - treat it as high-quality thinking fuel.

“The inevitable outcome of no accountability”Eisenberg operated for years exploiting protocols, embezzling DAOs, pushing the limits of what permissionless systems allow. The Mango Markets attack was the one that finally caught federal attention. Convicted on four counts. The rest of the charges painted a fuller picture of the person behind the trades. Some things can't be explained away with game theory frameworks.

“Convicted Mango Markets exploiter”Avraham became infamous for the 2022 Mango Markets exploit, where he manipulated the MNGO token to drain over $110 million from the protocol. In 2024 he was convicted on charges of commodities fraud, market manipulation, and wire fraud. While he continues posting trading ideas, the conviction and history of exploiting a DeFi platform remain the dominant part of his reputation.

“Unethical behavior”I had no previous knowledge of this individual and I’m relieved that I didn’t. After seeing some reviews about him, I became aware of his past conviction for possessing a significant amount of child pornography. This is extremely disturbing and unacceptable.
