FTX Execs påstås betalas av först: Här är fakta

  • FTX behandlar uttag men bara för adresser som verkar skumma och det ser ut som att dessa adresser används för att dölja personligheter hos personer bakom dem.
  • Twitter-användare hävdar att börsen betalar sina anställda och VP:er först snarare än att behandla användarnas uttag.
  • Sam Bankman-Fried uppgav att den första och främsta frågan för utbytet är att behandla uttag från användarna och bekräftade att han pratar med flera personer.

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 This led to people immediately taking money out of their platform, and a record $5 billion was withdrawn from the exchange on Sunday, as noted by Bankman-Fried, also called SBF in the crypto space.

Men enligt Jason Choi, Tangents medgrundare och grundaren på Blockcrunch, är cheferna inklusive VP:erna och andra insiders de första som får betalt och de fyller för närvarande sina påsar. Medan uttag för närvarande inte behandlas på FTX, påpekade Choi att det inte var fallet och flera personer har rapporterat utflöden från börsen.

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.

Författaren till bästsäljande bok, Nik Patel, Pekat ut 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 “gör rätt av användarna.”

Choi själv har pengar fast på FTX och vägrar tro på något utan bevis.

“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.
