Finally, after two years of all formalities, the court judge gave the green light to the FTX bankruptcy leaders to release the funds to almost all FTX creditors.
FTX was the second-ranked top crypto exchange before Nov 2022, but it collapsed badly when a report by Coindesk media revealed that the exchange was not fully holding customers’ funds.
