FTX and Alameda, founded by \u201cgenius trader\u201d SBF, have at least billions of dollars in debt. After we heard reports revealing the problems with Alameda\u2019s balance sheet, SBF tweeted that the company was healthy but began to seek bailouts from institutional investors and even competitors in private. Despite such efforts, ultimately, investors had to face FTX\u2019s application for bankruptcy protection.<\/p>\n<h3>SBF: Guardian or Betrayer?<\/h3>\n<p>After the Luna meltdown, many reports suggested that FTX offered help to many institutions hurt by the incident, though many acquisitions did not actually take place.

In fact, SBF has never claimed to be a crypto believer. Upon joining the industry, he didn\u2019t really understand what crypto is, and what motivated SBF to venture into crypto is that he believed that the BTC price gap between the U.S. and Japan could allow him to earn arbitrage profits. In an interview with Forbes, when asked if he would leave the industry if he found a better way to make money, say trading orange juice futures, he did not hesitate. \u201cYeah, I would.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>The ultimate solution for crypto<\/h3>\n<p>Judging from the ultimate collapse of FTX, crypto is not the best choice for SBF. Under his leadership, FTX was the judge in a game in which market maker Alameda was a player. Apparently, the former Wall Street genius regarded crypto as a way to hoard wealth through speculation while ignoring the crypto principles of decentralization and transparency.<\/p>\n<p>Crypto advocates equality for all, which is the exact opposite of the tenets of Wall Street. As a long-term believer in crypto assets and blockchain technology, CoinEx has always prioritized technology and product while striving for transparency, ease of use, and reliability. It is also one of the first crypto exchanges that promised to process all withdrawals in time and never misuse users\u2019 assets. Furthermore, always aiming to offer ease of use, CoinEx has worked to eliminate the restraints of conventional finance by providing user-friendly crypto products and services that transcend all language barriers and geographical restrictions. The exchange aims to offer services to more retail users planning to trade crypto worldwide, thereby making crypto trading easier.<\/p>\n<p>As one of the leading CEXs, CoinEx has worked to push for crypto progress, instead of confining itself to its own interests. Mining pools, DEXs, wallets, and public chains are all indispensable parts of the crypto ecosystem. ViaBTC Group, CoinEx\u2019s parent company, provides a wide range of services that span multiple fields, covering the mining pool, decentralized wallet, public chain, and capital investment. In addition, ViaBTC also offers tech and funding support to many DeFi and NFT projects, including DEXs, to meet different user demands, ensure reliable protection for its assets, and facilitate the joint progress of all players in the crypto industry.<\/p>\n<p>FTX\u2019s fall does not represent the failure of crypto. Sure, it is one of the iconic crypto companies built by traditional financial practitioners, but this is not the first time a Wall Street elite failed, and it won\u2019t be the last time either. Obviously, if Wall Street elites still wish to \u201cconquer\u201d crypto, the traditional banking model of fractional reserves and misusing user assets would no longer work.<\/p>\n<p>The FTX incident showed that the crypto community still has a long way to go. Despite that, CoinEx is confident that blockchain and crypto technologies will start a revolution in finance. FTX\u2019s fall also reminded us that the crypto space should be a party of Wall Street elites, and crypto companies can only achieve real success by focusing on the demand of the general public. For CoinEx and many other crypto believers, the best crypto solution is to clear away financial barriers, eliminate the information gap between retail investors and institutional investors, and allow every single person to enjoy accessible, transparent crypto services.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<pre>Source: Internet<\/pre>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]When the SBF announced FTX and 130 affiliated companies have filed for bankruptcy protection, people lost their final bit of trust in the former billionaire.
