Bankrupt Crypto Exchange FTX Seeks Court Approval to Sell $744 Million in Assets
FTX, a bankrupt crypto exchange, has requested permission from a judge to sell off its Grayscale and Bitwise assets, worth a total of $744 million, through an investment adviser. The move is aimed at protecting the company against potential downward price swings in the trust assets, maximizing the value of the debtors' estates, and allowing for forthcoming dollarized distributions to creditors. The trust assets include holdings of five different Grayscale Trusts valued at $691 million and holdings of a Bitwise-managed trust valued at $53 million. FTX filed for bankruptcy in November 2022 following accusations of mismanagement of funds by its CEO, Sam Bankman-Fried.
