In the grand tradition of financial farces, FTX-once the golden darling of crypto, now a sad clown-has decided to not cut off payments to 49 countries, including China, Ukraine, Pakistan, and Russia. Yes, you read that right. A plan so bold, it made many believe in the mythical dragon of justice, only to realize it was just another smoke ring in the fog of collapse.
Back in July, FTX thought it clever to consider denying payouts in regions where crypto laws are about as clear as mud-an idea that, unsurprisingly, was met with all the enthusiasm of a cat at bath time. Creditors, especially the Chinese, who seem to hold most of the troublesome claims, shouted loud enough to drown out FTX’s faint whispers of “we’re still in control.”
Most of the supposed “disputed” loot-around $800 million-was claimed to be from China. That’s nearly five percent of FTX’s $16 billion estate-enough to make one wonder if the real estate was just a number game and not actual gold bars. When creditors and claimants, including over 300 angry Chinese, called FTX out on its fairness, the exchange blinked, withdrew the plan, and promised maybe they’ll try again-perhaps next Tuesday, or some other mythical date.
Meanwhile, our dear SBF-champion of the “I’m innocent” club-keeps pushing his narrative that the whole thing was just a temporary liquidity hiccup, not a bankruptcy. His latest stunt? A 14-page “leak,” claiming the missing eight billion never left the company, just went on a secret vacation. Ah, the magic of missing billions-more elusive than Bigfoot or a tax return in the eyes of the law.
And so, the saga continues. A tale of glory, greed, and the eternal dance of “who’s really at fault?” As SBF serves his sentence, still fighting to convince the world he’s not a criminal, the rest of us are left marveling at the circus, popcorn in hand, wondering what act will come next. 🎪💸😂
