by sun

In a significant development, the beleaguered cryptocurrency exchange FTX has received authorization to liquidate approximately $873 million in trust assets. The move, as disclosed in a filing on November 29 within a Delaware bankruptcy court, aims to provide restitution to creditors affected by the exchange’s collapse in 2022.

The assets earmarked for liquidation comprise FTX’s holdings in trusts managed by crypto asset manager Grayscale Investments, with an estimated value of $807 million, and custody service provider Bitwise, valued at $66 million.
