ISTANBUL: Bankrupt cryptocurrency trading platform FTX recovered US$7.3 billion in cash and assets, the company’s attorney said Wednesday.
“The situation has stabilised, and the dumpster fire is out,” Andy Dietderich said at a US bankruptcy court hearing in the state of Delaware, reported Anadolu.
FTX’s founder and former CEO Samuel Bankman-Fried last month pleaded “not guilty” to five additional charges against him at a federal court in New York.
He faces a total of 13 charges involving the implosion of FTX, which was once the world’s third-largest crypto trading platform by daily volume.
After pleading not guilty on Jan 3 to eight initial charges before a US federal court in the Southern District of New York, he was released on a US$250 million bond to remain in confinement at his parents’ home in Palo Alto, California. – BERNAMA-ANADOLU
