The FTX Exposure
On Monday, the distressed lender filed for the chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of New Jersey. BlockFi said it had over 100,000 creditors while the liabilities and assets fall in the range of $10 billion. Earlier, the company said it had “significant exposure” to FTX and related companies. Speculation around BlockFi bankruptcy started after reports suggested FTX was facing significant liquidity crunch.
The fear and uncertainty around FTX’s cash crunch began when the company halted withdrawals. On November 11, FTX filed documents to claim bankruptcy following failed investment attempts by crypto exchange Binance. This led to a major crypto crash as the market expectation of a potential deal did not eventually meet. FTX’s bankruptcy proceedings involved the FTX exchange, Alameda Research and over 130 other associated firms. According to a ЦНБЦ репорт, BlockFi began consulting restructuring professionals just few days after FTX’s bankruptcy announcement.
