FTX, the bankrupt cryptocurrency exchange, is grappling with significant financial challenges, including an estimated $3 to $5 billion in claims from the US government amid its bankruptcy proceedings, as revealed in a court filing. Current CEO John J. Ray III disclosed that upon his takeover, FTX's coffers were nearly empty, with only 105 bitcoins left, compared to the nearly 100,000 bitcoins owed to customers. To address its financial obligations, FTX has been involved in selling assets, including a notable $60 million in creditors' claims secured by a venture led by a former FTX executive. Moreover, the US government plans to sell two luxury jets associated with former CEO Sam Bankman-Fried. FTX also aims to sell its 8% stake in AI startup Anthropic, now worth $1 billion, double the value since 2021, to repay creditors. Anthropic is seeking new investors but has explicitly excluded Saudi Arabia from consideration.
