I always had vaguely negative sentiment towards crypto.com. I think from the early days of their exchange launch.

From memory they had fairly aggressive marketing offers: buy lots of CRO and stake it to qualify for big discounts on other coins. Very popular, but to me it just felt like a short-term pump approach for their own coin, and unsustainable.

It's interesting that quite a few crypto exchanges launched their native coins on Cosmos chains. So they should all be compatible with Osmosis and each other. I was going to do a post on it. When I find the time!
