The bearish rhythm initiated by the collapse of the former multi-billion dollar crypto exchange, FTX, currently resonates throughout the world, despite the crypto market’s recent recovery from its adverse effects in the recent period. Interestingly, the holding company of the exchange’s founder, Sam Bankman-Fried, also known as Emergent Fidelity Technologies, has filed for bankruptcy. 

Według raportu z Bloomberg, the Antigua and Barbuda-based company filed for bankruptcy on Friday, joining the 130+ companies associated with FTX that have issued similar filings. Moreover, it is also crucial to note that it is Emergent Fidelity Technologies that owns over 55 million Robinhood shares, which are worth more than $550 million and are a crucial part of the exchange’s bankruptcy process. 

Ponadto firma Emergent Fidelity Technologies złożyła dobrowolny wniosek o ogłoszenie upadłości na podstawie rozdziału 11 w Sądzie Upadłościowym Stanów Zjednoczonych dla Dystryktu Delaware i jest już celem pozwu złożonego przez pożyczkodawcę kryptograficznego BlockFi w listopadzie w sprawie własności akcji Robinhood . 

Co ciekawe, Departament Sprawiedliwości (DoJ) kontroluje obecnie akcje Robinhood, które w momencie publikacji są warte $590 milionów i mogą być warte znacznie więcej, jeśli globalna sytuacja makroekonomiczna poprawi się w nadchodzących dniach. Akcje te były przedmiotem sporu między BlockFi, wierzycielem FTX Yonathanem Benem Shimonem i samym Bankmanem-Friedem. 

The DoJ seized around 55,273,469 shares of Robinhood (HOOD) along with $20 million in cash from Emergent Fidelity Technologies, which were cited as the “only known assets” belonging to the holding company. Prior to the seizure by the DoJ, these shares were held by brokerage firm ED&F Man Capital Markets. 

A court filing on January 6 said that the “indictment includes forfeiture allegations, seeking to forfeit property that constitutes or was derived from proceeds traceable to the conspiracy to commit wire fraud and property involved in the conspiracy to commit money laundering.”

As reported by Bitnation in an earlier report, Sam Bankman-Fried’s lawyers have submitted a plea to zachować swoje 56 milionów akcji aplikacji handlowej Robinhood reversing the DoJ’s decision to seize the same. The lawyers claim that SBF has “not been found criminally or civilly liable for fraud, and it is improper for FTX debtors to ask the Court to simply assume that everything Mr. Bankman-Fried ever touched is presumptively fraudulent.”

It was also revealed by Angela Barkhouse, one of the Joint Provisional Liquidators in the case, that the holding company filed for bankruptcy in the same court as FTX to pursue a “form of joint administration” between the two bankruptcies.

“The [Joint Provisional Liquidators’] duties are to the Debtor’s creditors, whoever those creditors may be,” said Barkhouse. “Given the many parties claiming to be creditors or outright owners of the [Robinhood shares] in proceedings in the U.S., the JPLs believe that chapter 11 protection is the only practical way to empower the Debtor to defend itself, the Assets, and its creditors’ interests in the U.S.”

Barkhouse dodał również, że SBF jest właścicielem blisko 90% holdingu, podczas gdy współzałożyciel Gary Wang jest właścicielem pozostałych 10%.
