#数字资产市场动态 FTX has just officially announced the creditor distribution schedule: February 14th as the record date, and March 31st as the start of actual payments. At the same time, they are also pushing to cut $2.2 billion from the disputed creditor reserve originally allocated. For creditors who have been waiting for over two years, this is finally a tangible progress they can see and feel.

Speaking of which, the FTX bankruptcy case is considered one of the biggest upheavals in crypto history, involving hundreds of billions of dollars in customer funds and a complex legal process that can be headache-inducing. Now, through asset sales, recovery of fraudulent funds, and handling of investment portfolios, FTX has accumulated enough cash to initiate the first round of payouts. However, they also issued a phishing warning, reminding creditors to beware of fake payment notifications—indicating that scammers are also eyeing this upcoming payout.

From a market perspective, this distribution could bring significant selling pressure. Think about it, the first reaction of creditors after receiving the money is likely to be to cash out quickly rather than immediately going all-in on crypto. Of course, some will reallocate funds into mainstream cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum. The specific market movement will still depend on the overall market sentiment at that time.

The gradual resolution of the FTX case is actually a positive signal for the industry. It proves that even in the face of the most severe fraud scandals, the legal system and asset recovery mechanisms can still function effectively. This helps rebuild investor confidence and attract large institutional players into the market.
