Bankrupt crypto exchange FTX announced<\/a> on Aug. 21 that its reorganization plan has garnered strong preliminary support from creditors.<\/p>\n

According to FTX<\/a>, over 95% of creditors have endorsed the plan, representing 99% of the claims by value. This broad backing indicates widespread consensus among FTX creditors.<\/p>\n

FTX CEO John J. Ray III<\/a> emphasized the significance of this support, noting that it highlights the plan's approval within the community. He stated:<\/p>\n

“Importantly, the Plan's innovative structure provides for the return of 100% of bankruptcy claim amounts plus interest for non-governmental creditors and resolves complex disputes with dozens of governmental and private stakeholders.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Despite this support, some critics argue that FTX's approach disadvantages creditors by valuing assets based on their November 2022 prices\u2014when the firm declared bankruptcy\u2014instead of current market values.<\/p>\n

Nevertheless, FTX expressed confidence that the overwhelming support will ensure the plan exceeds the acceptance thresholds required under the Bankruptcy Code.<\/p>\n

FTX plans to file the final voting results with the US Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware before the Confirmation Hearing, scheduled for Oct. 7, 2024.<\/p>\n

Former FTX exec petitions US<\/h2>\n

The community backing for the FTX plan<\/a> comes as a former executive of the exchange, Ryan Salame, files action against the US government.<\/p>\n

On Aug. 21, Salame alleged<\/a> that the US government reneged on their promise not to pursue campaign finance charges against his partner, Michelle Bond, which was a key element of his plea deal.<\/p>\n

On social media platform X, he stated that his lawsuit was to “tell the truth and expose un-American tactics.” He added<\/a>:<\/p>\n

“It's all true but I just made a court filing I'm pretty nervous about because I know it means the most powerful body in the world is going to come at me and my loved ones again, but I'm hoping it encourages more people to be honest and tell the truth and expose un-American tactics.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Salame, along with other former FTX executives, including Alameda<\/a> CEO Caroline Ellison<\/a>, Nishad Singh<\/a>, and Gary Wang, had pleaded guilty to several crimes related to their roles at the defunct exchange.<\/p>\n

Salame was to begin serving a 7.5-year prison sentence<\/a> on Oct. 13. He had also been ordered to pay over $6 million in forfeiture and more than $5 million in restitution.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
