FTX Repays $1.6B to Creditors in Third Distribution

The FTX Recovery Trust has announced its third distribution of $1.6 billion to former clients of the bankrupt crypto exchange, marking another critical step in repaying creditors following one of the largest financial frauds in American history. This payment, processed through major platforms including Bitgo, Kraken, and Payoneer, will see creditors receive between 78% and 120% of their claim values from November 2022, when FTX collapsed amid criminal mismanagement by founder Sam Bankman-Fried.
