<p>New developments indicate a possible relaunch of the exchange. The bankruptcy estate has reportedly engaged with over 75 potential bidders since May of this year, aimed at reviving the platform. The bidders include existing crypto exchanges, as well as strategic and financial buyers. A deadline for new offers has been set for Sept. 24, and an initial, or “stalking-horse,” bid will be selected by Oct. 16, as per the filings. The final confirmation of the target plan is projected for the second quarter of 2024.</p>

<p>As FTX treads the complex path of legal battles and bankruptcy proceedings, its future remains uncertain. Nonetheless, the details emerging from these recent court filings serve as a crucial marker for both the company’s potential rebirth and the legacy it leaves behind in the cryptocurrency landscape.</p>
