The court was informed by FTX’s lead attorney, Andy Dietderich, that reopening the cryptocurrency exchange was one of several viable options being considered for the future of the company.

In addition, Dietderich discussed raising a sizable sum of money to reopen the exchange. However, it is still up for debate within the company whether the money will come from FTX Estate assets or some other source.
