The collapse of centralized cryptocurrency FTX attorney said its restructuring plan did not aim to ‘reboot’ the firm. Instead, the customers’ funds stuck with the exchange will be fully refunded.

Andy Dietderich, the attorney of FTX, said that the exchange could “cautiously predict” fully repaying users and creditors. However, he added this was “an objective,” not a “guarantee.”

FTX’s attorney further says that “after an exhaustive effort, “there was no plan to restart the exchange dubbed as FTX 2.0 in its ongoing bankruptcy plan.

The defending attorney of FTX says, “Based on our results to date and current projections, we anticipate filing a disclosure statement in February describing how customers and general unsecured creditors with allowed claims will eventually be paid in full.”

“No investor is ready to commit the needed capital to a restart of the offshore exchange, nor has a buyer emerged for that exchange as a going concern,” said Andy.

Following the unprecedented collapse of FTX, the entire crypto market went into a massive shock, and dozens of market observers claimed that hundreds of Millions went out of the market in just a few hours.

It is also claimed that after the bankruptcy of FTX, several other firms in the crypto industry went bankrupt as they had a profound financial relationship with the firm of Sam Bankman Fried.

Before its demise, the firm was among the leading centralized cryptocurrency exchanges in the market, but suddenly, the situation got just the opposite, and it filed for bankruptcy. The event is still among the most destructive events in the crypto market.
