The implosion of crypto exchange FTX is not just an Enron moment – one particular company collapsing under the weight of fraud. It is crypto’s Lehman moment, too. The interconnectedness of FTX’s crypto platform, the use of leverage, and the lack of a lender of last resort ensure that the fallout will be widespread and lasting. Here’s what the end game could look like.
The price of Bitcoin has held up well in the face of a calamitous collapse of the once-celebrated crypto exchange FTX. After dipping below $16,000, the bellwether cryptocurrency has recently traded around $17,000. But don’t let that fool you. There is more pain to come for crypto investors. For one, the cascade of bankruptcies resulting from FTX’s downfall are just beginning. BlockFi is the first major firm to enter bankruptcy after FTX. A few other players like Genesis and Gemini are still limping along but their woes are far from over.
