Ray III, the new CEO of FTX, stated that FTX’s “valuable assets can only be effectively managed in an organized, collaborative process.”\n\nThis move comes just days after Binance, a larger competitor, walked away from an acquisition proposal.\n\nFTX was left scrambling to raise billions from investors and competitors to plug a financial gap in the exchange that could reach as high as $8bn according to multiple reports. Customers are rushing to get out."}
