FTX to Distribute $1.6B to Creditors on September 30

  • The FTX Recovery Trust will distribute $1.6 billion to creditors on September 30, marking the third payout since FTX's collapse in November 2022.
  • Four creditor groups will receive repayments covering between 78% and 120% of their original holdings, depending on the claims filed.
  • Payments will be processed through Bitgo, Kraken, and Payoneer.
  • Earlier this year, over $5 billion was paid out in the second wave of repayments.
  • The recovery plan is managed by John J. Ray III, focusing on asset recovery efforts.
  • FTX collapsed due to misuse of customer deposits by founder Sam Bankman-Fried and associates, leading to a major fraud case.
  • Bankman-Fried is serving a 25-year prison sentence, with former executives testifying against him.
  • Further distributions are expected as more assets are recovered.
