According to the source, SBF’s X account stated on Oct 31, 2025 that FTX was never insolvent and that FTT would be worth $22 billion today, based on a post attributed to Sam Bankman-Fried’s X handle (@SBF_FTX; Oct 31, 2025). This claim conflicts with FTX Debtors’ court filings that reported a large asset-liability shortfall at petition and later projected full repayment to allowed customer and creditor claims due to asset recoveries, while proposing to cancel FTT under the reorganization plan (source: FTX Debtors, case no. 22-11068, U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware; Debtors’ plan update and disclosure filed May 7, 2024). Traders considering exposure to FTT should note that the proposed plan treats FTT as having no bankruptcy recovery, limiting fundamental catalysts tied to the estate’s distributions (source: FTX Debtors’ proposed plan treatment of FTT, case no. 22-11068). Given this discrepancy, any price action in FTT driven by the Oct 31 post should be treated as headline risk and cross-checked against primary court documents before positioning (sources: SBF’s X post on Oct 31, 2025; FTX Debtors’ filings in case no. 22-11068).

According to @PANewsCN, former FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried shared a report titled FTX: Where Did The Money Go? asserting that more than 7 million customers deposited about $20 billion into FTX in November 2022, the exchange filed for bankruptcy while owing customers $8 billion, and that the funds never disappeared (source: @PANewsCN on X, Oct 31, 2025; @SBF_FTX on X, Oct 31, 2025). The report claims all customers are set to receive 119%-143% recovery, about 98% of creditors have already received 120%, and even after paying $8 billion in claims and $1 billion in legal fees, the estate still shows an $8 billion surplus; it characterizes the episode as a liquidity crunch rather than insolvency (source: @SBF_FTX on X, Oct 31, 2025; @PANewsCN on X, Oct 31, 2025). For trading context, the FTX Debtors’ May 2024 plan projected cash repayments of roughly up to 118% for most customers and outlined distributions in cash rather than in-kind crypto, which means repayments do not require on-exchange crypto selling by the estate and reduces immediate market impact relative to large spot crypto liquidations (source: FTX Debtors plan and court filings, May 2024).

According to Watcher.Guru, Sam Bankman-Fried said on X that "FTX was never bankrupt, even when its lawyers placed it into bankruptcy," a headline that could influence sentiment in FTX-related markets including FTT and bankruptcy claims trading (source: Watcher.Guru on X, Oct 31, 2025). According to Watcher.Guru, the post did not include court filings or balance-sheet data, so the immediate trading takeaway is headline-driven volatility risk in FTT spot and perpetual markets, warranting close monitoring of liquidity, funding rates, and spreads as the narrative circulates (source: Watcher.Guru on X, Oct 31, 2025).

According to @AltcoinDaily, Sam Bankman-Fried previously said he had about $100,000 left and one credit card, adding "I lost 20 billion" after FTX’s collapse (source: Altcoin Daily on X, Oct 21, 2025; Axios interview, Nov 29, 2022). For traders, the material flows sit with the FTX estate: a U.S. bankruptcy court authorized the Debtors to sell crypto holdings, and authorization/news of sales coincided with pressure on SOL and related tokens (source: U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware, Case No. 22-11068, Sept 13, 2023 order; Reuters, Sept 13, 2023). The Debtors said they expect to repay 100% or more of allowed customer claims in cash, independent of SBF’s personal finances and without any reliance on FTT (source: FTX Debtors press release, May 7, 2024). Traders should monitor estate liquidation updates and distribution timelines for potential volatility around execution windows in SOL, BTC and ETH (source: Reuters, Sept 13, 2023; FTX Debtors court filings, 2023–2024).

According to the source, FTX plans to dispense about $1.6 billion in creditor repayments this month; source: social media post dated Sep 19, 2025 referencing the distribution figure.

According to Reetika, traders are inappropriately attempting to use a tweet from Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF) to influence their trading decisions on the FTX Token (FTT) chart. Reetika implies skepticism about the effectiveness of using SBF's tweets as a basis for trading strategies, highlighting the risks involved in relying on such speculative news sources.

According to @EmberCN, ByBit and FTX exchanged platform tokens in early November 2021: ByBit swapped 100 million BIT for 3.36 million FTT from FTX, with a mutual agreement not to sell for three years. This lock-up period will end in two months, and a sell-off is likely. At the time of the swap, the exchange was equal in value, but now there is a significant disparity: 100 million BIT is valued at $57.73 million, while 3.36 million FTT is worth significantly less.
