New FTX CEO John J. Ray III has stated that there could be a possibility of the bankruptcy exchange reopening.

In a recent interview, Mr. Ray stated that the possibility of reopening the exchange is not off the table completely. The CEO who has stepped in for former CEO, Sam Bankman-Fried, believes the move to reopen FTX would offer more value to customers as opposed to simply liquidating assets and closing or selling the platform.

Commenting further on the possibility of reviving the international exchange, Ray stated: “There are stakeholders we’re working with who’ve identified what they see is a viable business.”
