Early this week the Binance boss Changpeng Zhao made it know that they will be liquidating the remaining FTT digital assists in their books saying the FTX has being engaging with political competitors in the industry. The largest crypto platform according to market capitalization and trading volume, came in possession of these tokens by the sale of its equity which was received in BUSD and FTT. The total value of these assets was valued at 2.1 billion dollars.
Zhao says that;
“As part of Binance’s exit from FTX equity last year, Binance received roughly $2.1 billion USD equivalent in cash (BUSD and FTT). Due to recent revelations that have came to light, we have decided to liquidate any remaining FTT on our books.”
Well to me the story ain’t clear yet, because form he’s claims are not exact, and the statement are looking shady;
“Liquidating our FTT is just post-exit risk management, learning from LUNA. We gave support before, but we won’t pretend to make love after divorce. We are not against anyone. But we won’t support people who lobby against other industry players behind their backs. Onwards.”
CZ promised that they are going to make the disposal bit by bit in other not affect the market trade which I really did appreciate because I was practically wondering how terrible this is going to seem in the daily market chat;
“We will try to do so in a way that minimizes market impact. Due to market conditions and limited liquidity, we expect this will take a few months to complete.
Binance always encourages collaboration between industry players. Regarding any speculation as to whether this is a move against a competitor, it is not. Our industry is in its nascency and every time a project publicly fails it hurts every user and every platform.”
