What's Going on with FTX?
It's been a hectic few days in crypto — especially when it comes to FTX. Show us what's been going on on-chain by analyzing relevant data and presenting it in an original dashboard.
Introduction
Binance
Binance is the most important crypto trading market (exchange) by volume, but it has suffered real scandals in recent years. For example, cryptocurrency thefts, the last of which – last October – has caused the theft of 570 million dollars in cryptocurrencies.
FTX
FTX is the third largest exchange in the world by volume. Its CEO, Sam Bankman-Fried, had previously run a cryptocurrency trading company called Alameda Research. Recently a CoinDesk report revealed how Alameda's wallet was mostly based on FTT, the token created by FTX. That dependency was suspicious and raised eyebrows in the crypto industry and its investors.
That data has generated a lot of complaints and criticism among investors, who now seem to be withdrawing their positions from FTX. And while Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao (CZ) has entered into an exchange of comments with Sam Bankman-Fried. Binance had FTT among its assets, announcing that “due to recent revelations that have come to light, we have decided to liquidate any FTT that was still on our books.”d Text Here
While the famous CZ did not state how much FTT will be sold, it’s known that Binance received roughly $2.1 billion worth of BUSD and FTT as part of its FTX exit last year.
SBF tweeted at Zhao and proposed a buyout at $22 per token as a way not to greatly impact the markets.
When it comes to money movements, a $583 million transfer (in FTT) has moved to a Binance exchange wallet over the weekend.
Numerous sources state that FTX’s books are not as good as they seem, and that they might hold too many illiquid assets that might trigger a domino effect if one thing goes wrong.
