Le PDG de FTX présente des excuses publiques et prévoit de "faire ce qu'il faut pour les utilisateurs"
- Le PDG de l'échange de crypto FTX, Sam Bankman-Fried, a présenté des excuses publiques sur Twitter et a reconnu toutes les erreurs qu'il a commises alors qu'il était en charge de l'échange désormais proche de la faillite.
- 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.
De plus, dans le fil Twitter de jeudi, Bankman-Fried, également connu sous le nom de SBF dans la communauté crypto, a confirmé que la branche américaine de FTX, FTX.US est entièrement liquide et ne fait face à aucun arrêt de retrait contrairement à la branche interne de l'échange. .
L'ancien cryptomilliardaire a vu sa richesse chuter de manière significative au cours des derniers jours. SBF valait près de $26 milliards au sommet de sa popularité mais depuis lors, il a vu sa richesse tomber à moins d'un milliardaire après que le jeton qu'il a créé, le jeton FTT, a été réduit en cendres suite à l'annonce du PDG de Binance, Changpeng Zhao, également connu sous le nom de CZ dans l'espace, que son entreprise vendrait plus de $2 milliards en FTT.
Le PDG de FTX brise le silence
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.”
Par la suite, l'ancienne star de la cryptographie, qui a été l'un des plus gros donateurs lors des récentes élections présidentielles aux États-Unis, a ensuite publié une mise à jour sur l'avenir de son entreprise et son existence, ainsi que sur le moment où les retraits seront autorisés.
“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 “mauvais étiquetage interne” 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.
La deuxième erreur commise par SBF peut être vue dans le message Twitter intégré ci-dessous. Ses erreurs de calcul ont conduit à la crise de liquidité dans laquelle se trouve actuellement la bourse.
Bien faire avec les utilisateurs
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.
Il a également confirmé que FTX est actuellement en pourparlers avec plusieurs parties pour résoudre ses problèmes. Selon les rumeurs du marché, l'exécutif est conclure un accord avec le fondateur 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 je 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.
Aller de l'avant
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 Reste 100% Liquide
Grâce aux politiques réglementaires strictes de la SEC des États-Unis, FTX US reste liquide 100% et les retraits sont en cours de traitement pour les utilisateurs.
While ending his Twitter thread, FTX CEO Bankman-Fried threw a shot at Binance CEO, Zhao, calling him a “sparring partner.”
