Amid criticism, PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) issued an official statement on its website, offering insights into the situation surrounding FTX. The firm disclosed that FTX Digital Markets is going through a Chapter 11 settlement with FTX Trading and its affiliated debtors, aiming to combine assets from both entities’ estates.
FTX recently issued a cautionary statement regarding its authorized investment manager. FTX noted that certain unauthorized third parties have begun attempting to bid on behalf of specific FTX Debtors, prompting the firm to take preemptive measures.
In its inaugural monthly communication to stakeholders, FTX took to the X platform to inform creditors that the sale of Digital Assets by FTX Debtors mandated by a bankruptcy court order falls exclusively under the jurisdiction of Galaxy Asset Management, the court-appointed investment manager.
As a result, only Galaxy Asset Management is authorized to handle any selling offers or buying requests. The bankrupt exchange advised interested parties, especially institutional buyers and those complying with regulations, to follow this guidance.
FTX obtained approval from the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware in a Feb. 22 hearing to sell its stake of over $1 billion in the artificial intelligence firm Anthropic.
