FTX 2.0 Advocates at Forefront

Currently, Crypto Twitter stages sensational talks of FTX 2.0. Among them, the coalition of FTX creditors and users, led by @AFTXcreditor and @loomdart, lead the exchange’s resurrection rally. Major crypto critics and communities question the objective of this relaunch.

To which, the “FTX 2.0 Advocate” loomdart commented:

“This is unironically a way to build what FTX was originally meant to be and help make something that betters the entire crypto space.”

With the motive to address the crypto community about the FTX creditors’ activities, the Twitter account FTX 2.0 Coalition is hosting a Twitter Space on Thursday. Moreover, investors and traders anticipate the official unveiling of the bidders’ list and roadmap of the exchange’s reboot.

Eventually, this FTX 2.0 speculation induced spikes in the FTX Token (FTT) — over 8% in price and 263% in trading volume — in the last 24 hours. At press time, FTT traded at $1.07.
