FTX Will Entrust Its Assets To BitGo
Cryptocurrency exchange FTX is working hard to recover after its bankruptcy. With the resignation of company founder Sam Bankman-Fried, a new CEO was appointed by the court. The new CEO reported that the review of assets has begun.
The exchange company filed a request from the court to protect the remaining $740 million in assets. Going to a judge, the company requested that the remaining assets be protected by BitGo while the bankruptcy proceedings were pending.
FTX has prepaid $5 million to have its assets stored on BitGo via cold wallet. In addition, the company will continue to investigate and attempt to recover lost or stolen assets while the bankruptcy process continues. The company’s lawyers stated that this could increase the amount of assets in custody.
