FTX is a cryptocurrency exchange that was launched in 2018. It specializes in trading products such as derivatives, leveraged tokens, options, and volatility products. It supports most commonly traded cryptocurrencies and is powered by a top liquidity provider. FTX stands for Futures Exchange, a market where users can invest in commodities and foreign exchange.

Quote: “We sometimes find $50m of assets lying around that we lost track of; such is life.”

The sudden collapse of FTX might have been a lot less surprising if you’d been privy to Sam Bankman-Fried’s messages to his fellow executives.

According to a report by the bankrupt crypto exchange’s new management, SBF allegedly found the company’s lack of proper accounting amusing. The report says he described the company’s related hedge fund Alameda Research as “hilariously beyond any threshold of any auditor being able to even get partially through an audit” and joked about misplacing millions.

As the SEC bear down on the company, shady activities are coming to light: FTX loaned its affiliated firm, Alameda Research, ~$10 billion worth of customer assets to fund high-risk bets, per the WSJ.
