Notably, customers with preference settlement amounts of less than $250,000 can accept the proposed settlement without any reduction in their claim or payment.The preference settlement, equivalent to 15% of customer withdrawals made on the exchange within nine days before its bankruptcy, will be available without reduction for eligible customers whose claims are less than $250,000.However, the anticipated asset recoveries may face challenges due to factors like taxation, government claims, and the fluctuation of token prices.&nbsp;The debtors may exclude insiders, affiliates, or customers who were involved in the commingling and misuse of customer deposits and corporate funds, as well as those who modified their KYC information to facilitate withdrawals during the suspension.<h2 id="new-proposal-brings-hope-to-ftx-customers">New Proposal Brings Hope to FTX Customers</h2>FTX, which experienced a high-profile collapse last year following revelations about its financial state, has been undergoing significant changes.&nbsp;The newly appointed CEO, John J. Ray III, has criticized the previous financial controls at the company.&nbsp;Meanwhile, FTX founder <a href="https://cryptonews.com/exclusives/ftx-executive-describes-final-days-of-doomed-crypto-exchange-id-been-suicidal-for-some-days.htm">Sam Bankman-Fried is currently on trial</a> for matters related to the company's collapse.This new proposal could offer a ray of hope for the customers of FTX and FTX.US, who have been waiting for the return of their assets.&nbsp;If approved, this plan expects to disburse the estimated $9 billion for FTX.com and $166 million for FTX.US by the end of the second quarter in 2024.&nbsp;
