Gate News message, April 23 — SBF, founder of bankrupt cryptocurrency exchange FTX, claimed in a post on his X account on April 22 that if the exchange’s assets had not been liquidated following its November 2022 collapse, they would have been worth approximately $114 billion as of that date.
According to SBF, the top six holdings would have comprised: Anthropic ($82.3 billion, representing a 165x return), SpaceX ($15 billion, 75x return), Solana (SOL) ($5.1 billion, 27x return), Robinhood ($4.9 billion, 8x return), Genesis Digital ($3.5 billion, 3x return), and Kursor ($3 billion, 15,000x return).
SBF suggested that FTX’s liquidators missed out on billions of dollars in potential value by selling the assets early rather than holding them through the market recovery.
