This lawsuit, initiated in 2023, aimed to recover funds for repaying former customers and creditors of FTX.<\/p>\n

Under the terms of the settlement<\/a><\/strong>, FTX will retrieve $175 million in digital assets from Bybit and sell around $53 million in BIT tokens to Mirana Corp, an investment arm of the exchange. FTX’s legal representatives acknowledged the validity of their claims but pointed out that further litigation would be challenging, time-consuming, and costly.<\/p>\n

This agreement awaits court approval, with a hearing set for November 20, 2024, to finalize the terms between FTX and Bybit. The legal action stemmed from FTX’s initial $1 billion lawsuit filed in November 2023, which accused Bybit and Mirana of exploiting their “VIP” access to withdraw approximately $327 million in digital assets right before FTX’s collapse.<\/p>\n
