FTX Exchange Release Day One Bankruptcy Filing – Bitcoin Magazine

FTX Exchange, following the collapse of its business, has filed its first day declaration in bankruptcy court citing a “complete failure of corporate controls,” per a court filing.

John J. Ray III, the newly appointed CEO of FTX Exchange, addressed the many issues facing FTX Exchange and the lack of leadership exhibited by Sam Bankman-Fried and other executives previously in charge of the company.

“Never in my career have I seen such a complete failure of corporate controls and such a complete absence of trustworthy financial information as occurred here,” said Ray. “From compromised systems integrity and faulty regulatory oversight abroad, to the concentration of control in the hands of a very small group of inexperienced, unsophisticated and potentially compromised individuals, this situation is unprecedented.”
