CoinShares Nets 116% Profit from FTX Claim Sale

Exchange News
  • CoinShares earned a $39.78 million profit by selling its FTX claim, yielding a remarkable 116% recovery rate.
  • The FTX claim sale return will boost CoinShares’ financial health, benefiting shareholders and clients.

CoinShares International, a prominent European digital asset investment company, has finalized the sale of its claim against the defunct FTX exchange. This sale is expected to yield a remarkable recovery rate of 116% after broker fees. This translates to a substantial return of approximately $39.78 million on a claim initially valued at $33.6 million.

The agreement underscores CoinShares’ strategic move amidst the volatile crypto landscape, marking a significant financial boost following earlier setbacks. Notably, the firm had reported losses amounting to $21.7 million earlier linked to its exposure to Terra (LUNA) during the second quarter of 2022.

However, the recovery from the FTX claim is poised to strengthen the company’s financial position. That will deliver substantial benefits to its shareholders and clients.

On the other hand, bitFlyer, a major Japanese cryptocurrency exchange, recently announced its acquisition of FTX Japan. The bitFlyer Holdings will rebrand FTX Japan under a new name, New Custody Company until a permanent name is decided.
