The first round of distributions will begin within 60 days after the effective date, exclusively for approved creditors in the Convenience Classes. FTX has reached agreements with cryptocurrency custodian BitGo and exchange Kraken to provide asset distribution services for retail and institutional clients.

To qualify for the first round of distributions, users must complete the following steps before January 3, 2025:

FTX CEO John Ray III stated: 'Over the past two years, our professional team has successfully recovered billions of dollars in assets. The effectiveness of the reorganization plan in January 2025 and the start of distributions reflect the significant results of the asset recovery efforts.' For transferred claims, only assignees who complete processing before the record date of January 3, 2025, and have the 21-day objection period expired will be eligible for distributions.
