FTX's FTT Token Jumps 37% as DoJ Drops Hammer on Binance
A lot of people seem to be falling for the Solana hype. But the top 10 wallets hold 10% of supply and the top 100 own over 30% of it. That's a big risk to take if/when they decide to sell. FTX also still holds a lot to sell to recover funds
The top 5 Aptos wallets account for 10% of supply. The top 50 hold 73% of the supply. The top 100 wallets have for 92% of it. 83% of supply is staked for high APY and it's looking very similar to another FTX-like Ponzi
In another reminder that crypto is just people chasing fast money and hype, two of the most disgraced and dead projects in LUNA and FTT are ranked 1st and 3rd for 1W gains in the top 100 with massive buying
Exactly one year ago, FTX filed for bankruptcy after FTT collapsed. Customer funds gone, their data stolen, FTT deployer rugged, (alleged) huge price manipulation by Justin Sun, "FTX is fine" tweet etc. Bitcoin's price had crashed to $16k. But Bitcoin is now 130% higher

The FTT speculation has been ridiculous. It pumped 11% leading into the trial, dumped 20% in the middle of it, pumped 32% near the final week, dumped 10% at the penultimate day, pumped 7% in the last day and dumped 9% when SBF found guilty. Then mostly recovered from the final dump to today
Pro-crypto Rep. Emmer is nominated as House Speaker. This same guy was still bullish even when the FTT Ponzi collapsed & actually blamed poor SEC regulation with Gensler complicit in it, plus general bias and has pushed to fire Gensler. With price pumps and looming ETFs, it's very interesting times

My favourite thing is FTT out performing BTC
Same people who keep pouring money into FTT even knowing that the token has no utility out of FTX.
FTX return me my 25 FTT!!! yeah they are worthless
And you don't think bankruptcy and fractional reserve crypto banking go HAND IN HAND. Oh geez... Wise up. Get your head out of the sand.. Nov. 6 – In response to the article, Changpeng Zhao, the CEO of rival crypto exchange Binance, often referred to as "CZ," said he would sell all of the company's holdings in FTT, which amount to $580 million worth of the token. The major exit from a crypto heavyweight triggered a wider selloff, akin to a bank run, placing immense pressure on FTX to meet the sudden demand for customer withdrawals. Due to a lack of funds, FTX halted customer withdrawals altogether. https://abcnews.go.com/Business/timeline-cryptocurrency-exchange-ftxs-historic-collapse/story?id=93337035 If you don't have the liquid reserves, to handle a bank run. The bank or exchange goes bye bye and bankrupt.. On March 10, 2023, Silicon Valley Bank failed after a bank run, marking the third-largest bank failure in United States history and the largest since the 2007–2008 financial crisis. It was one of three bank failures, along with Silvergate Bank and Signature Bank, in March 2023 in the United States
Many people made a killing off of FTT, LUNA, SafeMoon. As long as you don't consider SOL a long term "investment", you should be fine. Know when to dump.
So this is the reason why FTT is up 11% in the past 24 hours? People are so crazy... FTX probably won't be back and even if does, it won't have the customers trust to put money back on it. This is just a proof on how insane this market is.
One must be out of his mind to buy FTT
tldr; FTX Token (FTT), the native cryptocurrency of the bankrupt exchange FTX, surged over 70% to multimonth highs on September 29, reaching $2.70. This spike followed rumors of impending bankruptcy distributions to creditors and customers. However, the official Chapter 11 bankruptcy plan has not yet been approved, with a court hearing scheduled for October 7. If approved, distributions to creditors under $50,000 could begin by the end of 2024, while larger claims may be settled in 2025. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

At least FTT and alameda tokens mooned, WLD not so.
I remember the CT bros tweets about buying $FTT. I'm doing it because I trust Sam! I'm just thinking I trust cold storage, and that's about it.

I knew it was a scam, or at a bare minimum fiduciary irresponsibility when I saw the fortune cookies and the stadium naming crap. So glad I never used such a piece of shit crypto exchange. Fucking FTT tokens what a 🤡 show
Of course, they didn't had the crypto reserves in wallets, just FTT infinite token.
It's shiba ino bro. Almost all memecoin are basically centralised coin. No different from FTT or even amazon giftcard
Welcome back, you've missed a lot, but rest assured the the biggest and safest coins these days are onecoin, FTT, bitconnect, terra luna, and safemoon. I would put the majority of your investments into these.
I'm just getting into Crypto and I've starting building my portfolio. I'm leaning towards ETC, ONE, LUNA, FTT, WLD. Any crypto veterans out there willing to give me their thoughts?
Yep....got lucky with FTT because exchange gave me back money when went broke. I was all in VET in 2018 (check posts).....so imagine how long it takes to go from all in BTC to ETH to VET....years bro. Been here way longer than you were born. Reddit was not a thing for crypto when I was involved back in the day.
No you didn't. If you have been in crypto since 2015, you're not buying FTT, XRP and ADA in 2022. After 7 years in crypto, you should have known that XRP is pretty much a scam, FTT is shady as shit, and Hoskinson grifted his way into ETH and grifted his way in projects with Dan Larimer. If you have been in crypto since 2015, you don't touch toxic shit like this that noobs fall for. > Only a bear on BTC....all in on alt coins, especially ADA, XRP, and FTT. https://np.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/u6rcq4/daily_discussion_april_19_2022_gmt0/i5a3kwg/
Worst coin ever is quite a statement especially with cryptos like bitconnect, Onecoin, FTT and Terra Luna…all of which scammed their holders. Now I am not one to defend Worldcoin and I would encourage any criticism of that crypto and Sam Altman. But as far as we know, Worldcoin hasn’t scammed anybody yet. It does scan people’s eyeballs for crypto which is weird so maybe collecting this data is a scam. But it hasn’t been a rugpull just yet. So I can’t put it in the same level as the cryptos mentioned above. But I do agree that Worldcoin is a worthless crypto with little to no utility (but the same could be said about most cryptos).
tldr; The FTX scandal, triggered by risky financial practices and the misuse of customer funds by its founder Sam Bankman-Fried, led to the collapse of the once second-largest cryptocurrency exchange. The crisis unfolded after a tweet from Binance's CEO, revealing plans to liquidate FTT tokens, causing FTX's market value to plummet. Legal proceedings found Bankman-Fried guilty of fraud and embezzlement, resulting in a 25-year prison sentence. Efforts to recover and distribute assets to victims are ongoing, with a U.S. District Court ordering FTX and Alameda Research to pay $12.7 billion in restitution and disgorgement. The scandal has prompted increased regulatory scrutiny and efforts to rebuild trust in the cryptocurrency industry. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

Pay the peasants in FTT and LUNA... ~ Dubai court /S
The post says TON is not on any major exchange.... yet it is on the largest exchange in the world. Also, FTT was the FTX exchange coin that they manipulated. Telegram doesn't have an exchange. No idea the connection.
It's like a cop giving a guy a parking ticket and patting themselves on the back while a woman is being stabbed in the background. Imagine if Gary was active against BNB, FTT, Terra/Luna, Tron, Tether, Celsius, and the exchanges that listed scams like squid games token. Yes, XRP behaved like a security, but I've never heard of them shuffling billions of dollars into the Emirates and making deals with North Korea.
#1 Never, ever, sell at ATL prices. Never. Unless, there is 100% bakrupcy level urgency, like with Luna, or FTT. But this was not one of those moments. Now, you became the opposite of exit liquidity — someoneone's cheap entry asset to buy in cheap. Many people have been waiting for this. Make this an expensive lesson.

Yea! People should invest in real coins like Luna or FTT, projects with solid teams behind them, contracts, White papers, and it's gone.
Like when Caroline Ellison wanted to buy all FTT from CZ to "minimize the impact on the market". Shortly before FTT and then FTX collapsed.
Sounds like Caroline offering to buy FTT from Binance lol
It's always a good and amazing investment until the exchange gets into deep shit. Just look at FTT, FTX token.
>no guarantees of redeem-ability Debt has no guarantees either. Even explicit guarantees can be broken. And that's when people ask the courts step in. It's why bonds fluctuate in market price - risk of default. And it's the same reason that Bitcoin fluctuates in price. But I hope Tether prints more stablecoins to buy more Bitcoin so the value goes up for you!! Those people who used their FTT to buy Bitcoin, they passed their bad debt on to you! And, calling me willfully stupid and telling me that your facts make me angry really shows me how you can have a conversation without emotions... Buy more bitcoin. Never sell. HODL. Get rich!!!
>Jesus christ, dude. It's easy to find the info. FTX (SBF's personal piggy bank) owned ~57m SOL. Lord knows how much FTT was used to purchase SOL. It's about 15-20% of the supply in 2022). Probably closer to 20% if you include Alameda. That's a huge red flag considering how much the founders/SOL pocketed. They were early investors, so of course, they were in the good graces of SOL. Manipulation would have been one call away, and I would bet it happened numerous times. Proof on chain homie. Everyone can read the funding rounds, that's in the past. Show me he still controls that SOL **now**, or else it's moot. Also then show how he can use that to control Solana.

They pay in FTT token I guess
I think it's fairly obvious to anyone who has been around for at least one cycle: LUNC CEL FTT
Phew, for a moment I thought my FTT tokens was in danger
What utility does it have? Does it have any other substantial use, appart from inflating their balance sheet? Do you remmember what happened to FTT, native token of FTX? Do you need a reminder?
"I was set up to be the fall guy." People forget the last 2 acts he did was use the last bit of customer money he had to prop up FTT so Alameda wouldn't get margin called and bribe bahamian officials.
Sell me all your FTT for $0.00 then fuck off!
how much will i get for my 25 FTT tokens
Who are FTX creditors going to sell millions with of FTT token?
It’s 100% + 18% interest in fiat based on the amount at the time they declared bankruptcy. Also, because FTX was mostly holding Solana and FTT tokens at the time of collapse. Guess which coin is about to get dumped to the tune of 9 billion dollars? Look the f out solana holders…
Why would FTT holders even get anything? They bet, they lost.
tldr; FTX's bankruptcy estate plans to compensate creditors and customers with $14.5 to $16.3 billion, excluding FTT token holders whose claims will be canceled. However, those with NFTs on the FTX platform will receive their assets back. Around 98% of creditors with claims under $50,000 will get 118% of what they're owed if the plan is approved. The plan follows FTX's collapse in 2022, which led to its founder, Sam Bankman-Fried, receiving a 25-year prison sentence for stealing $8 billion among other charges. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

I wonder if I’ll get my $500 usd back I made an account and transferred $500 less than 7 days before they shut down LMAO On the bright side, made $6k shorting FTT at the same time
I suspect that if Larry David tried to claim, under penalty of perjury, that he was not using his fame to endorse the idea that FTX was safe, he'd be destroyed by the evidence. For example, that [he was paid in FTT tokens](https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/tv/news/larry-david-crypto-super-bowl-advert-b2489141.html). The idea that David *wasn't* endorsing FTX in the ad, is outright sophistry.
Exactly this. NO one knew. SBF and a few cronies were the only ones. This is laid out in the book Going Infinite. I was researching FTX as a potential place to put some crypto. Tons of people were. No one knew what was happening on the backend. That’s *specifically* why SBF is in prison: he kept it secret that he was turning USD > FTT token and then shuttling the FTT to Alameda and re-exchanging it for USD. He kept that secret from everyone. Don’t know what the feds are trying to do here.
Not too sure about that. Alto stablecoins are always doomed to a death loop, especially one linked to a stablecoins based high interest platform, and FTX probably couldn't have gotten it's overnight success without it's political dealings and other connections, even then only FTT kept them afloat. It wasn't that special of an exchange otherwise. I'm not too sure either of them have it in them to run a business long term.
Might as well buy FTT and LUNC too
I feel so fucking bad for you SBF. I buy FTT just to spite the gross legal system that fucked you over so hard.
SBF issued unregistered securities (FTT, SRM), engaged in insider trading to inflate their value so as to increase his potential loan collateral. He then took our customer deposits without their knowledge or consent, which his hedge fund gambled and lost on various investments. Once FTXs "assets" were exposed to be merely magic money FTT that he himself created, it started a bank run. Since they gambled away customer funds, their assets werent backed and FTX couldn't pay them out. That man deserves jail. I forgot what exactly Do Kwon did, but LUNA had more to it than the algorithm induced death spiral.
FTX is never starting up again and if it did it would have a new token and not FTT
FTT lol cmon you know the answer to these questions
Put $100 in FTT and wait a week
1-'proof of stake' is too close to fiat. 2- there was a sizeable premine that turnes a lot of people off. 3- the monetary policy has been changed quite often. 4- code in not law. go look into ethereum classic for more details. and 5- most of the scams run on eth; FTT, Worldcoin, HEX, etc etc.
I got a bunch of FTT tokens in FTX that I'm just ignoring until I retire
I wander if he has big stash of FTT hidden somewhere
Doesn't help those of us who held FTT token and got fucked :(
Im betting FTT will be pumping over the next few days as SBF's trial takes place
I bet FTT goes up if he gets a light sentence lmao
Coinbase holds thr US market by thr balls, for that to happen coinbase would need to fuck up big time. IMO exchange tokens like CRO or FTT are ponzis.
After FTT and FTX, I'm afraid to hold exchange tokens. Sold away my CRO and BNB.
FTT will pump to the heavens
After FTT and FTX, im afraid to hold exchange tokens. Sold away my CRO and BNB.
Bought cheap SOL and short FTT that day.
FTT is up 20% this month.
yep see FTX and their FTT scam token. They got owned. Let's have yet another amoral alt season where noobs can stripped naked of their cash for another dumb ass crap token from the Ethereum mothership of shit.
I don’t believe there were any outward signs. People will say things about the high interest and free things, but at the time, I warned people that returns aren’t free and was largely told to shut up (“spreading fud”)—but even those things didn’t point to imminent collapse. The problems these exchanges had were internal and invisible to the public. So, for instance, FTX would use customer funds but back debts with their own coins (I think they were called FTT). Again, this looks problematic now, but no one really said anything before the collapse. ALL EXCHANGES USE CUSTOMER FUNDS. That’s how crypto exchanges work. Essentially, you send your tokens to the exchange’s wallet, and the exchange credits you by changing some digital numbers in your account—but that crypto is no longer held by you. This is why all exchanges say, in their terms of use, that, in bankruptcy, you may not have access to your crypto (because it is not your crypto, but instead an asset of the exchange). All exchanges are fine to use. Put your crypto in, do your trades, then move your crypto out. That minimizes risk for everyone, even the exchange, since they’ll see they can’t rely on your crypto for funding other services.
Yes, there was a trader Cryptokking on twitch who bought FTT big time 15 minutes before the news hit and where he lost 15k usd...I knew something is gonna happen (he lost so far 270k usd) live streaming 24/7 on twitch if you wanna check it out I shorted for 5k and made 5k
Probably algorithms. They don't know anything about the coin they're buying. They just buy and sell because FTT may temporarily fall into the parameters that their algos are looking for.
For now BCH whales seem eager to arbitrage, they receive paper BCH on Binace/OKX (they likely also receive some sort of financial incentive to do so) and give their actual BCH to spot exchanges. Or for a more sinister possibility, exchanges such as Binance and OKX, replace customer onchain assets with pieces of paper, and transfer the actual assets to other spot exchanges such as coinbase, who actually back user assets with the real thing. We saw this already with FTX replacing user assets with FTT. Of course they never repaid customers since they just declared bankruptcy when they got caught without their customers' assets when too many users clicked the withdraw button.
daytraders don't even need to know the name of the project, all they need is volatility. Most volume in the market does not care about crypto. They do not buy your project because it is great and they do not sell it because it sucks... they simply trade volatility using bots. If I can trade Safemoon and FTT back and forth for a profit, I'll do that. It does not matter that they are shit, because the FIAT I pull out of the trades is real.
It's not so much about the absolute price as it is about the market cap. CEL is relatively small (69m), what surprises me is that FTT's mcap is still 3/4th of a billion dollars... I guess a lot of people are still being used as exit liquidity for a few actors.
My uncle is gambling his retirement portfolio on FTT. It’s wild.
Replace CEL and FTT with MOONS and you have your answer. MOONS is a dead project that people around here still hang on to.
Have a look at a 3 year time span of LUNA & FTT to see coin destruction :( Condolences on all the losses ... In the crypto space things seem to occur orders of magnitude faster than tradfi Gainz are huge Losses are devastating Good luck everyone !
It's interesting to see coins like FTT and LUNC still having fanbases lol
What is this FTT token ? It's down from past ATH really badly . Does it have any potential ?
everything and anything is tradable. DOGE, FTT and your mom
Well well, more bullshit pumping of FTT.
What about people with FTT tokens, do they get them returned but now they are worth fuck all?
People are still buying LUNA and FTT..
Understandable, but crypto exchanges have mostly opted for the "exchange token" route, by giving those who hold a large quantity of their native token discounts on fees. That was the primary reason for why people bought FTT. Subscription service would be good for you, but probably not the exchanges or they would offer it.
They should print more $FTT tokens. It baffles me that this is still a Top 100 coin.
Better then paying in FTT token as it was on ATH.
tldr; FTX, the bankrupt cryptocurrency exchange formerly run by Sam Bankman-Fried, announced during a court hearing that it expects to fully repay its customers. However, the exchange will not be restarting as it has abandoned efforts to find buyers for the platform. This news led to an 11% surge in the value of FTX's native token, FTT. Bankman-Fried was found guilty of misusing customer funds before the exchange's collapse in late 2022. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

You threw yourself to crypto reddit. You are going to catch a lot of the "Sounds like you're an idiot, cryptos not the place for idiots", just gotta let it roll off your shoulders and reassess your security protocols on all fronts. Those be the same peeps who bought DOGE at $0.60, ADA at $2.50, LUNA at $98, and we're throwing their life savings at FTT at $50+ Your money is long gone, there is no way to get it back. Buy a cold wallet, not Trezor or Ledger. I have a Jade and Ledger, but my Ledger has my moveable money.
>FTX had more assets than liabilities. Definitely not true. ~$6 billion of their assets was their own FTT token which was illiquid AF and was not worth shit.
So you’re saying my FTT tokens aren’t gonna moon ?? Damn I better cancel that pizza order
