The debtors of the now-defunct cryptocurrency exchange FTX have filed an amended Chapter 11 plan of reorganization which indicates the value of customer asset claims will be retroactively set to the time when the exchange collapsed in November 2022.
In a recent court filing in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware the debtors outlined that any customer entitlement claim against the exchange aimed at compensating the holder will be based on the value as of the date the exchange filed for bankruptcy on November 11, 2022.
It was stated that the value of a claim will be determined by the crypto asset’s value into cash using conversion rates specified in a conversion table.
However, there has been a rise in crypto prices since the bankruptcy filing. Bitcoin (BTC) was valued at $17,036 during the filing, but at the time of publication, the price stands at $42,272.
Meanwhile, last month, on November 30, FTX was approved to sell approximately $873 million of trust assets, with the proceeds intended to repay creditors of the collapsed exchange.
Joseph Moldovan, chair of business solutions, restructuring, and governance practices at Morrison Cohen — a New York-based law firm — previously explained to Cointelegraph the complexities of the FTX bankruptcy.
Meanwhile, on December 7, Cointelegraph reported that the FTX 2.0 Customer Ad Hoc Committee proposed to revise the reorganization plan in order to maintain a balance among stakeholder interests.
On December 9, reports revealed that wallets linked to these defunct entities transferred digital assets worth $23.59 million to multiple crypto exchanges.
