<p class="is-style-lead">Kraken co-founder Jesse Powell doubts FTX 2.0’s potential to bounce back from bankruptcy. In a tweet, he criticized the proposed recovery plan for the struggling exchange.&nbsp;</p> 
<p>Powell believes starting from scratch would be a better option claiming FTX 2.0 lacks technology, licenses, banking, and has to deal with a damaged reputation.&nbsp;</p> 
<p>The co-founder also suggests that the trustee in charge of FTX’s bankruptcy should auction the platform’s trademark and domain to the highest bidder.</p>

   <p lang="en" dir="ltr">FTX 2.0 would be worse than starting from scratch. No team, no tech, no licenses, no banking, tarnished brand. The trustee should just auction off the domain and trademark to the highest bidder. Anything beyond that is simply a fee extraction attack on delusional creditors. <a href="https://t.co/l7JirsbwjP" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">https://t.co/l7JirsbwjP</a></p>— Jesse Powell (@jespow) <a href="https://twitter.com/jespow/status/1686610969454342144?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">August 2, 2023</a>

<p>In his view, FTX 2.0 appears to be nothing more than a “fee-extraction assault on creditor fantasists.”</p> 
<p>He argued that even with the best legal minds at work, building a robust and safe&nbsp;exchange might not be possible. </p>

<p>In his view, FTX will have trouble finding suitable candidates due to experts getting better job opportunities elsewhere. He assesses that experienced traders have also moved to other markets, causing FTX to lose its competitive advantage.</p>
