The intendsย to restart FTXย Tradingย Ltd have been successfully confirmed in a new staffing and compensation report filed with theย Unitedย States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware. In the document, it shows the acting CEO John J. Ray III, engaged in a series of activities in April, drawing up a recovery strategy for the troubled platform.
Plans for FTXย Tradingย Ltd 2.0 In Progress
In January, the CEO revealed the intendsย to revive the FTXย Tradingย Ltd bankruptcy exchange. Ray, whose duty is to secure FTXย Tradingย Ltd creditors are well compensated, asserted that he would look into liquidating the exchangeโs assets, generating more value.
Still, FTXย Tradingย Ltd recovered about $7.3 Billion in distributable assets theย previousย 30ย days. Nonetheless, FTXย Tradingย Ltd attorney, Andy Diertreich, has pointedย outย that the legal team is discussing subsequent steps for a potential reboot and intendsย to file a preliminary reorganization strategy in July. He further indicatedย that the program will likely be confirmed in Q2 2024.
Severalย days thereafter, reports resurfaced that San Francisco-based deal financialย resources company Tribe Financialย resources was seeingย as a $250 Million fundraising campaign toย assist the exchange restart its operations. Reportedly, Tribe plansย to lead the round with $100 Million from itself and limited partners. The firmโs CEO, Arjun Sethi, has already met with FTXโs committee of unsecured creditors to discuss the progress.
Nonetheless, the latest court filing has intimated at plans for FTXโs restart. Ray spent greaterย than 6 hours attending to related matters in the past 30ย days. Several activities include reviewing steps and materials and commenting on the FTXย Tradingย Ltd 2.0 bidder list. Itโsย worthย notingย that, the exchangeโs reorganization strategy would involve a bidding process.
The Cryptocurrency Community
It is worth keepingย inย mindย that reports about FTXโs recovery are accordingย to hypothetical statements and speculation drawn from internal information. Neither Ray nor the committee of unsecured creditors has released a concrete strategy for the initiative.
Althoughย while some cryptocurrency community membersย believeย FTXย Tradingย Ltd 2.0 would be the better path to recovery for all involved parties, others doubt the planโs viability. Clients who worked with the company before its demiseย saidย it performed poorly owingย to high latency, bugs in the appย programming interface (API) for traders, and coding difficulties.
