The court-approved U.S. dollar repayments from FTX have left creditors frustrated, as crypto prices surged after the exchange’s November 2022 collapse.

ETH and Solana rebounds have similarly reduced real recoveries to roughly 46% and 12%, respectively. Critics argue that converting all claims into dollars locked in losses for individual creditors, while protecting the estate from further volatility.
