HackerNoon’s Legal PDF Series here PRELIMINARY STATEMENT II. BACKGROUND TO ALL MOTIONS E. The Events of November 2022 In November 2022, there was a run on FTX. The price of FTT, FTX’s exchange token which collateralized certain of the debt held by FTX, unexpectedly collapsed.[8] As with a traditional bank run, numerous customers simultaneously sought to withdraw their assets, thus feeding fears that a collapse was inevitable.
