FTX has asked the court to allow the sale of a stake in the startup Anthropic
The bankrupt FTX crypto exchange has filed a petition with the court to sell its stake in the startup Anthropic in the amount of 7.84% and worth half a billion dollars. The Exchange asks to consider the case in an expedited manner.
FTX management plans to use two ways to sell shares – a private transaction and an auction. The exchange does not disclose the initial value of the securities, citing concern for the interests of creditors.
The petition went to the Delaware County Bankruptcy Court. The company asks to consider the application by February 22 to speed up the sale of the asset.
It is known that in the fall of 2022 FTX invested $500 million in Anthropic.
Earlier, the interim administration of FTX abandoned plans to restart the exchange, deciding to reimburse investors through the liquidation of the platform.
