Wintermute founder claims that attributing the 1011 crash to a single platform is unreasonable

On January 31st, Evgeny Gaevoy, the founder of Wintermute, posted on social media that the market volatility on October 10th was not a software malfunction, but a high leverage market crash triggered by macro news, which occurred on a Friday evening with low liquidity. He believes that attributing the sharp decline to a single trading platform is not honest on a cognitive level.
