El CEO de FTX emite una disculpa pública y planea "hacer lo correcto para los usuarios"
- El director ejecutivo del intercambio de criptomonedas FTX, Sam Bankman-Fried, emitió una disculpa pública en Twitter y reconoció todos los errores que cometió mientras estaba a cargo del intercambio, que ahora está cerca de la bancarrota.
- He said that due to “poor internal labeling” of bank-related accounts, he was “substantially off” on his sense of users’ margin which led to $5 billion in withdrawals on Sunday.
- The executive further added that his firm’s number 1 priority is to “do right by the users” and revealed that the exchange is in talks with several parties for a bailout deal.
- Going forward, SBF confirmed that Alameda Research won’t be trading on FTX exchange anymore and if the firm remains operations, 100% on-chain transparency will be maintained.
After a long period of silence, the CEO of crypto exchange FTX, Sam Bankman-Fried, issued a public apology on Twitter stating that he should’ve been more careful and also, commented on the future of the exchange and how the Bahamas-based firm will get its neck out of the trouble it is in.
Además, en el hilo de Twitter del jueves, Bankman-Fried, también conocido como SBF en la criptocomunidad, confirmó que el brazo estadounidense de FTX, FTX.US, es completamente líquido y no se enfrenta a ningún cese de retiro a diferencia del brazo interno del intercambio. .
El ex cripto multimillonario vio caer su riqueza significativamente en los últimos días. SBF valía casi $26 mil millones en el pico de su popularidad, pero desde entonces, vio caer su riqueza a menos de un multimillonario después de que el token que creó, el token FTT, se redujera a cenizas luego del anuncio del CEO de Binance, Changpeng Zhao, también conocido como CZ en el espacio, que su empresa vendería más de $2 mil millones en FTT.
El CEO de FTX rompe el silencio
The FTX executive stated that he has been silent for the past few days because Binance demanded it and he “wasn’t particularly allowed to say much publicly.” While apologizing, the crypto personality stated, “But of course it’s on me that we ended up there in the first place.”
A partir de entonces, la ex estrella de las criptomonedas, que fue uno de los mayores donantes en las recientes elecciones presidenciales en los EE. UU., publicó una actualización sobre el futuro de su empresa y su existencia, y también sobre cuándo se permitirán los retiros.
“FTX International currently has a total market value of assets/collateral higher than client deposits (moves with prices!). But that’s different from liquidity for delivery–as you can tell from the state of withdrawals. The liquidity varies widely, from very to very little,” said SBF.
The FTX CEO accepted that he made two mistakes that proved to be the death knell for his exchange. Firstly, he stated that due to “mal etiquetado interno” of bank-related accounts, he was “substantially off” on his sense of users’ margin. “I thought it was way lower,” he said. This resulted in over $5 billion worth of withdrawals on Sunday, which was the largest every for the exchange.

Hacer lo correcto por los usuarios
He once again apologized for not communicating enough and said that his number 1 priority is to “do right by the users.”
“So, right now, we’re spending the week doing everything we can to raise liquidity. I can’t make any promises about that. But I’m going to try. And give anything I have to if that will make it work,” said the FTX executive.
También confirmó que FTX se encuentra actualmente en conversaciones con varias partes para resolver sus problemas. Según rumores del mercado, el ejecutivo está trabajando en un trato con el fundador de Tron, Justin Sun.
Bankman-Fried also confirmed that every penny received from the parties and with the collateralization of the assets, “will go straight to users,” until all the users haven’t been made full. After the customers, SBF will see that the exchange does right by its employees and investors as well.
“Because at the end of the day, I was CEO, which means that yo was responsible for making sure that things went well. I, ultimately, should have been on top of everything. I clearly failed in that. I’m sorry,” Bankman-Fried said.
Avanzando
Going forward, FTX CEO confirmed that Alameda Research won’t be trading on FTX exchange anymore and “in any scenario in which FTX continues operating, its first priority will be radical transparency–transparency it probably always should have been giving.” He stated that the exchange, if operational, will provide “as close to on-chain transparency as it can, so that people know exactly what is happening on it.”
“All of the stakeholders would have a hard look at FTX governance. I will not be around if I’m not wanted. All of the stakeholders–investors, regulators, users–would have a large part to play in how it would be run,” confirmed Bankman-Fried.
FTX US Restos 100% Líquido
Gracias a las estrictas políticas regulatorias de la SEC de los Estados Unidos, FTX US sigue siendo 100% líquido y los retiros se procesan para los usuarios.
While ending his Twitter thread, FTX CEO Bankman-Fried threw a shot at Binance CEO, Zhao, calling him a “sparring partner.”
