FTX Creditors in China Protest Frozen Funds Approximately 500 Chinese creditors of the collapsed cryptocurrency exchange FTX are protesting a court decision blocking repayments. These creditors, largely based in China, face the grim reality of potentially losing their investments. Court Ruling Fuels Anger The core of the protest stems from a court ruling that withholds repayments to users in 49 countries where cryptocurrency services are restricted or prohibited. A staggering 82%, or $380 million, of the claims from these restricted countries originate from China, intensifying the frustration and desperation of the affected creditors. Uncertain Future for FTX Claims The future remains uncertain for these creditors. The court's decision highlights the complexities of international regulations and the challenges faced by cryptocurrency investors when dealing with cross-border insolvencies. The protest underscores the deep financial impact of FTX's collapse and the legal hurdles in the path of reclaiming lost funds. ```
