The bankruptcy filing reveals that FTX’s and Alameda’s liabilities range from $10 billion to $50 billion. Users were not too pleased to see that FTX US was included in the bankruptcy proceedings.

Withdrawals are and will remain open. We will give updates as we have them.”

The address was processing transactions up until the last transaction of 5,200,000 SHIB left the wallet. The wallet started to see withdrawals resume again at around 2:15 p.m., according to blockchain explorer data.

FTX’s website says still says “withdrawals are and will remain open,” despite the lack of onchain movement. Well before the last onchain transaction, on Nov. 10, 2022, at 11:29 p.m. (ET), FTX International mentionedETH withdrawals will resume shortly” in regard to FTX US withdrawals.

There’s no mention of any withdrawal problems from FTX US’s Twitter account or the main site, but users have been complaining about withdrawal issues since Nov. 8, 2022. On that day, one individual wrote: “Anyone having trouble withdrawing BTC from FTX US? My withdrawal has been stuck on ‘request’ for 6 hours. Please give me feedback.” At 10:27 a.m. on Friday, another individual wrote that they continued to get an error message while attempting to withdraw.

“Unable to withdrawal via FTX US, even though I’m logged in via the website, [I] can’t find any instance of this error message anywhere,” the user said.
