Former NYSE President’s firm competes with two others to acquire and relaunch FTX. 
According to <a href="https://www.wsj.com/livecoverage/stock-market-today-dow-jones-11-08-2023/card/former-nyse-president-in-talks-to-reboot-ftx-exchange-psAcQowWOgoPKMkjanR2" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reports</a> from the Wall Street Journal, Tom Farley, previous head of the New York Stock Exchange, is among the top three bidders likely to purchase FTX and potentially relaunch the bankrupt exchange. This development could signal potential new beginnings for the troubled cryptocurrency firm. 
Alongside Farley’s enterprise, two other contenders are in the race: the innovative fintech company Figure Technologies and the specialist crypto investment entity Proof Group. The trio is in the final round to acquire and potentially revive <a href="https://crypto.news/ftx-aftermath-celebrities-could-face-legal-heat-after-bankman-frieds-verdict/">FTX</a>.&nbsp;

Insiders report that over 70 expressions of interest were streamlined to the final three entities, although their identities were not disclosed in last month’s advisory session. The selection of the ultimate bidder is expected to occur by December.&nbsp;

The revival of FTX is being strongly rumoured, especially after Bankman-Fried’s conviction earlier last week. However, professionals are highly sceptical about whether a re-launch of the platform will be feasible, given the significant erosion of trust among the community.&nbsp;

The gap left by approximately $9 billion in missing customer deposits looms large in these deliberations.&nbsp;
