After conducting thorough investigations, it has been revealed that a significant amount of funds is missing from FTX customer assets. In response to this, FTX Trading Ltd and its associated debtors have proposed a settlement that would result in the majority of lost crypto and financial assets being refunded to customers.The proposed settlement, which is expected to be approved by the Bankruptcy Court, would see FTX customers receiving over 90% of their missing assets by the end of the second quarter of 2024. The debtors have also put forward a reimbursement of $9 billion for FTX.com and $166 million for FTX.US.To facilitate this settlement, the debtors will segregate their assets into three distinct portions. One portion will hold assets for the benefit of FTX.com, another portion will be focused on FTX.US, and the third part will be a general pool for any other assets.The Chief Executive Officer and Chief Restructuring Officer of the FTX Debtors, John J. Ray III, expressed his satisfaction with this development and commended the independent Board of Directors overseeing the case. He acknowledged the challenging financial situation and emphasized the value that has been created for customers through this settlement.In a separate development, an FTX Deputy named Nishad Singh, who is a key witness in the fraud trial of FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried, has revealed in a New York court that he was aware of the missing customer funds. Singh claimed to have confronted Bankman-Fried about the misappropriation of customer assets to Alameda Research, a crypto trading firm co-founded by Bankman-Fried. Singh also expressed concerns about Bankman-Fried’s extravagant lifestyle and suggested that he was aware of the accounting discrepancies related to customer funds.Singh has pleaded guilty to fraud charges and is cooperating with prosecutors in the trial, hoping for a reduced sentence. On the other hand, Bankman-Fried has pleaded not guilty and is attempting to prove his innocence in court.Overall, these developments indicate progress towards compensating the victims of the FTX debacle and resolving the issues surrounding the missing customer funds.
