FTX与K5 Global解决诉讼，保留有争议的投资基金

这项交易将使FTX保留K5筹集的投资基金的百分比。 FTX首席执行官John J. Ray III表示K5就像一颗宝石

FTX has settled a lawsuit that sought to recover $700 million in disputed investments from K5 Global, a venture capital firm with close ties to former FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried.

FTX解决了一项诉讼，试图从K5 Global中收回7亿美元的有争议的投资，K5 Global是一家风险投资公司，与前FTX创始人Sam Bankman Fried紧密联系。

The development was first reported by Bloomberg on March 23. The legal battle began in June 2023, when FTX filed a case against K5 in the United States after the exchange collapsed in November 2022. FTX was looking to recover some of its assets, which had been invested in K5.

彭博社于3月23日首次报道了这一发展。法律斗争始于2023年6月，当时FTX在2022年11月倒闭后，在美国对K5提起诉讼。FTX试图收回其一些资产，已投资于K5。

The deal would allow FTX to retain a percentage of the investment funds raised by K5. According to FTX CEO John J. Ray III, K5 is like "a gem in the company's portfolio" and as much yield as possible from its assets would go toward paying back creditors. This is only one aspect of FTX's broader recovery efforts.

该交易将使FTX保留K5筹集的投资资金的一部分。 FTX首席执行官约翰·J·雷三世（John J. Ray III）表示，K5就像“公司投资组合中的一颗宝石”，其资产的收益率尽可能多地用于偿还债权人。这只是FTX更广泛恢复工作的一个方面。

K5 Global, which was founded by Michael Kives and Bryan Baum, enjoyed strong ties to Bankman-Fried. The ex-aide to Hillary Clinton's chief of staff, Kives also drew on influential business and celebrity connections, reports add. Before the exchange went down, he was said to have laundered some of the stolen FTX money into K5's investments.

由Michael Kives和Bryan Baum创立的K5 Global与Bankman Fried建立了牢固的联系。报道说，希拉里·克林顿（Hillary Clinton）参谋长的前Aide Kives还吸引了有影响力的商业和名人联系。在交易所下降之前，据说他已经将一些被盗的FTX资金洗净了K5的投资。

In October 2023, a court sanctioned FTX's proposal to pay creditors back. Since then, the exchange has harvested gains from increasing prices of crypto and asset sales it's holding in AI Startup Anthropic. The K5 settlement fits with these efforts to get creditors maximum recoveries.

2023年10月，法院批准了FTX向债权人偿还的提议。从那时起，该交易所从AI初创企业人类人道中持有的加密货币和资产销售的价格上涨而收获了收益。 K5和解符合这些努力，以使债权人获得最大的收回。

FTX has also settled with LayerZero and other entities. The LayerZero agreement came after an $86 million lawsuit related to transactions with Alameda Research. The exchange also attempted to recover $67 million from Anthony Scaramucci and $70 million from former Alameda co-CEO Sam Trabucco.

FTX还与LayerZero和其他实体定居。在与Alameda Research进行的交易有关的8600万美元诉讼之后，该层共同达成了一项协议。该交易所还试图从Anthony Scaramucci收回6700万美元，并从前阿拉米达联合首席执行官Sam Trabucco中收回7000万美元。

In March 2024, Bankman-Fried was sentenced to 25 years in prison for fraud. Problems he has regarding the legal world still hover above the head of the cloud of uncertainty around the restructuring process at FTX. However, FTX has provisions of $6.5 billion for creditors and has agreed with Backpack on selling FTX EU, thus covering claims for creditors within that region.

2024年3月，Bankman Fried因欺诈而被判处25年徒刑。他对法律界的问题仍然悬停在FTX重组过程周围的不确定性云层之上。但是，FTX的债权人有65亿美元的规定，并同意背包出售FTX EU，因此涵盖了该地区内债权人的索赔。

The K5 settlement is making FTX move closer to restoring its financial status and recovering funds for investors, thus proving FTX's willingness to recover all lost assets.

K5解决方案正在使FTX更接近恢复其财务状况并为投资者收回资金，从而证明了FTX愿意收回所有损失的资产。
