Os executivos da FTX estão sendo pagos primeiro: aqui estão os fatos
- A FTX está processando saques, mas apenas para endereços que parecem suspeitos e parece que esses endereços estão sendo usados para esconder as personalidades das pessoas por trás deles.
- Os usuários do Twitter afirmam que a exchange está pagando seus funcionários e VPs primeiro, em vez de processar as retiradas dos usuários.
- Sam Bankman-Fried afirmou que o primeiro e mais importante problema da exchange é processar as retiradas dos usuários e confirmou que está conversando com várias pessoas.
FTX crypto exchange announced that it wasn’t liquid anymore and a crisis had engulfed the exchange, which meant that the users couldn’t process withdrawals anymore. This announcement came as a shock to every user of the once-second-biggest crypto exchange in the blockchain space. Interestingly, almost every executive at the Bahamas-based firm, including the CEO and co-founder Sam Bankman-Fried stated that their firm was liquid a few days ago while the situation did not seem like it.
The executives at the exchange asked users not to withdraw funds from the platform as everything was safe and sound despite Binance’s announcement that it would sell FTX Tokens (FTT) worth billions, hinting at the possibility of a strong crash. This led to people immediately taking money out of their platform, and a record $5 billion was withdrawn from the exchange on Sunday, as noted by Bankman-Fried, also called SBF in the crypto space.
No entanto, de acordo com Jason Choi, cofundador da Tangent e fundador da Blockcrunch, os executivos, incluindo os vice-presidentes e outros insiders, são os primeiros a serem pagos e atualmente estão enchendo as malas. Embora as retiradas não estejam sendo processadas na FTX, Choi apontou que não era o caso e várias pessoas relataram saídas da bolsa.
Choi further pointed out that the withdrawals are being made to addresses that are quite “fishy.” While a number of these addresses look like “clean” addresses, it seems that these blockchain addresses are being used “deliberately to obfuscate any linkage to real individuals,” according to Choi, who has been in the crypto space for a considerable amount of time.
O autor do livro mais vendido, Nik Patel, apontou that around $200,000 were sent to an address that’s interacted with other exchanges but not FTX but nothing in over 500 days. This is strange considering the fact that in the last 500 days, the crypto market has been increasingly volatile and almost every crypto coin has either made significant strides, or collapsed completely like LUNC.
“I don’t think I believe in coincidences anymore after what happened. My hunch is that VIPs/insiders are being paid off first as many employees – many of whom were publicly asking people to not withdraw – had their assets stored on FTX,” Choi added.
Many other people also pointed out the fact that FTX is paying employees first despite Bankman-Fried apologizing and stating that he plans to “fazer o certo pelos usuários.”
O próprio Choi tem fundos presos no FTX e se recusa a acreditar em qualquer coisa sem provas.
“For now, not believing a single word until I have evidence. I have initiated withdrawals since the 8th and will keep Twitter posted if any of them are processed – then I’ll know it’s real,”Choi said.
