Charles Schwab, a $7 Trillion Asset Management Giant, Is Preparing to Enter the Spot Crypto Market
Nov 22, 2024 at 11:10 pm
This move could bring significant institutional capital and further validate the cryptocurrency market.
Cryptocurrency exchange FTX has filed for bankruptcy in the United States, according to a statement released on Friday. The filing also includes trading firm Alameda Research and about 130 other affiliated companies.
“FTX, FTX.US, and Alameda Research Limited have commenced voluntary proceedings under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in the District of Delaware,” the statement reads.
The filing comes after a tumultuous week for FTX, which saw the exchange facing a liquidity crisis and ultimately being unable to meet customer withdrawal requests. Rival exchange Binance had initially agreed to acquire FTX, but later backed out of the deal.
The statement adds that FTX has appointed John J. Ray III as its new CEO. Ray is a veteran bankruptcy attorney who previously oversaw the liquidation of Enron.
“The immediate relief from Chapter 11 will give FTX the opportunity to assess its situation and develop a plan to maximize recoveries for stakeholders,” the statement concludes.
FTX filed for bankruptcy in the United States on Friday, a court filing showed, as the cryptocurrency exchange’s liquidity crisis culminated in a stunning downfall.
The filing also included trading firm Alameda Research and about 130 other affiliated companies, according to the statement from FTX’s attorneys at Sullivan & Cromwell.
The filing in the District of Delaware came after a tumultuous week that saw FTX facing a liquidity crunch and ultimately being unable to meet customer withdrawal requests.
The exchange’s troubles began after a CoinDesk report raised concerns about the financial health of Alameda, which is owned by FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried.
The report prompted Binance, the world’s largest crypto exchange, to walk away from a deal to acquire FTX, which was announced earlier this week.
The statement from FTX’s attorneys added that the exchange had appointed John J. Ray III as its new CEO.
Ray, a veteran bankruptcy attorney, oversaw the liquidation of Enron Corp after the energy company filed for bankruptcy in 2001.
“The immediate relief from Chapter 11 will give FTX the opportunity to assess its situation and develop a plan to maximize recoveries for stakeholders,” the statement concluded.
