<a href="https://optimisus.com/market/market-news/ftx-intensifies-its-recovery-efforts-with-20-new-lawsuits/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">FTX, the bankrupt cryptocurrency exchange</a>, has announced its reorganization plan will take effect in January 2025, prioritizing creditor reimbursement, particularly for overseas clients. The company aims to finalize agreements with fund distributors by December 2024, enabling payouts early next year.CEO John J. Ray III emphasized FTX’s commitment to returning funds to customers quickly. However, creditors are expected to recover only 10-25% of their losses, sparking frustration among those impacted by the exchange’s collapse. Despite these limited payouts, FTX is actively pursuing asset recovery to maximize returns, including settling lawsuits and filing new claims.The reorganization unfolds against the backdrop of legal battles involving FTX’s founder, Sam Bankman-Fried. While appealing his criminal conviction, Bankman-Fried remains a focal point of one of the largest crypto scandals in history.Meanwhile, co-founder Gary Wang avoided prison after testifying against him. Despite expectations of eased regulatory scrutiny under a Trump administration, Bankman-Fried&#39;s case remains an exception due to its high-profile nature.FTX has also seen positive developments, including a surge in the value of its FTT token, potentially bolstering liquidity for creditor payouts. Still, discontent remains high among creditors, with many feeling the recovery efforts fall short of addressing their significant losses.As FTX prepares to implement its plan, the company faces ongoing challenges in asset recovery and rebuilding trust. The January 2025 timeline represents progress in closing a controversial chapter in cryptocurrency history, but hurdles remain as the company strives to meet its commitments to former users and creditors.
