Binance adquirirá a su rival, FTX

  • FTX y Binance compitieron previamente para comprar los activos de Voyager Digital. FTX luego ganó la oferta.
  • Some experts have accused CZ of deliberately undermining FTX’s finances.
  • La adquisición marca una gran caída en desgracia para Bannkman-Fried, quien emergió como uno de los actores clave en la industria.

Cryptocurrency exchange Binance has agreed to acquire its rival, FTX, a day after both companies were supposedly set to feud. Binance CEO Changpeng “CZ” Zhao announced in a Pío que Binance lo haría liquidar sus tenencias de FTT. Horas después, el CEO de FTX, Sam Bankman-Fried, recurrió a Twitter para pedir colaboración entre ambos intercambios, sofocando los rumores de un conflicto.

CZ appears to have consolidated his place as the leading figure in the crypto market after announcing the possibility of taking over the suddenly embattled FTX. CZ’s previous tweet seems to have caused a liquidity crunch in the exchange run by his former disciple and rival, Bankman-Fried.

El acuerdo, si se completa, marcará una sorprendente caída en desgracia para Bankman-Fried, quien emergió como una de las figuras más destacadas en la industria de las criptomonedas, y a menudo acudió en ayuda de las empresas de criptomonedas en bancarrota. un twitter hilo posted by the FTX boss, Bankman-Fried, revealed that FTX had “come to an agreement on a strategic transaction” with Binance after the company attempted to clear out its withdrawal backlog.

Bankman-Fried confirmed that he had asked Binance for help to “clear out liquidity crunches” and cover assets on a 1:1 basis. SBF explained in his thread that the “important thing is that customers are protected.”

The FTX CEO had kind words for his rival, CZ, noting that he “has done, and will continue to do, an incredible job of building out the global crypto ecosystem and creating a freer economic world.”

“I know that there have been rumors in media of conflict between our two exchanges, however Binance has shown time and again that they are committed to a more decentralized global economy while working to improve industry relations with regulators. We are in the best of hands,” SBF tweeted.

Binance CEO CZ shared a statement on Twitter confirming that FTX had approached Binance for help. The crypto billionaire said that Binance was “assessing the situation in real time” and could “pull out from the deal at any time.” According to CZ, FTT is expected to be volatile in the coming days.

Some experts have accused CZ of deliberately undermining FTX’s finances, causing investors to panic. Although SBF issued a statement assuring users that things “were fine,” it appeared that the three-year-old exchange had taken a strong blow.

La adquisición será un punto de inflexión en el criptomercado. FTX y Binance han estado en desacuerdo en su mayor parte. Binance ha tenido varios roces con los reguladores, mientras que Bankman-Fried ha presionado por la regulación de las criptomonedas.
