A Delaware bankruptcy court has approved the sale of about $873 million worth of trust assets owned by FTX, a crypto exchange that collapsed in 2022. The sale will help repay the creditors who suffered losses from the exchange’s downfall.
The $873 million figure will come from assets FTX holds, including shares in Grayscale Investments’ trusts, valued at $807 million, and with Bitwise, a custody service provider with a value of $66 million.
The court document used the valuation date of Oct. 25, 2023, which showed a total of $744 million in assets, however, the assets have appreciated since then. The approval comes nearly a month after FTX debtors filed a motion to Judge John Dorsey requesting the sale of these assets.
FTX holds over 22 million units of Grayscale’s Bitcoin Trust (GBTC) valued at around $691 million, as well as 6.3 million shares of its Ether trust, ETHE, valued at around $106 million. The exchange may also liquidate assets from Grayscale’s Trusts offering exposure to Ethereum Classic, Litecoin, and large-cap tokens.
After the exchange collapsed, John. J Ray III and his team of administrators have been trying to recover the assets that were taken from the customers and managed to recover around $7 billion, with the total amount of customer assets misappropriated estimated to be at $8.7 billion.
