Alameda Research<\/a>, the sister company of the defunct FTX<\/a> crypto exchange, has moved part of its Worldcoin WLD holding for the first time since receiving it in September 2023<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Crypto Intelligence platform SpotOnchain reported that the failed crypto trading firm transferred 205,387 Worldcoin (WLD) tokens, valued at $352,000, to Binance. It stated<\/a>:<\/p>\n

“Nine hours ago, Alameda Research moved the very first 205,387 $WLD ($352K) to Binance, after vesting them from the Worldcoin a year ago.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Such transfers typically indicate bearish sentiment, suggesting holders may want to sell. However, WLD's value remained stable as a broader crypto market rally boosted its price by approximately 10% to $1.79, according to CryptoSlate's <\/em>data.<\/em><\/p>\n

WLD is the native token of the proof-of-personhood project Worldcoin. Due to its facial data collection practices, the crypto project has faced global scrutiny and controversy<\/a>. However, it continues to score significant adoption<\/a>, with more than 6 million people verified across different countries on its platform.<\/p>\n

FTX and Alameda Assets (Source: X\/Lookonchain)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Meanwhile, despite these recent transfers, FTX and Alameda still retain significant digital assets. They hold 24.8 million WLD, worth around $45.6 million, along with 266.85 million FTT<\/a> ($344.24 million), 105.47 million BIT ($113.26 million), 104 million STG ($32.6 million), and 145.97 million BOBA<\/a> ($29.83 million).<\/p>\n

FTX bankruptcy<\/h2>\n

This asset movement is the latest development in the ongoing FTX bankruptcy process.<\/p>\n

On Aug. 7, US District Judge Peter Castel approved<\/a> a $12.7 billion settlement agreement between the CFTC and the bankrupt crypto firms FTX and Alameda.<\/p>\n

The settlement requires the firms to pay investors $8.7 billion in restitution and $4 billion in disgorgement. No civil monetary penalties were imposed, so the entire $12.7 billion will go to the exchange's creditors.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the settlement occurred against FTX, informing creditors about its reorganization plans<\/a>. However, some creditors have argued that the proposed plan undervalues their claims because the value of most digital assets has substantially increased since the firm's bankruptcy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
