3/ For claims over $50k (totaling $17B+):
Payouts will happen in stages, with the first distributions likely coming in Q2 2025.

This isn’t just a repayment; it’s a potential game changer for liquidity. ⏳

4/ Here’s why this matters:
FTX liquidated their assets during the bear market, selling at lower prices.
Now they’re paying creditors in cash—at a time when we’re in a bull market. 📈

Will creditors reinvest? And if they do, how much impact will this have?

5/ Billions in cash. Bullish market conditions. Higher prices.
Will this fuel another rally, or will creditors sit this one out?

Are we underestimating the market impact of FTX’s repayments?

2/ The 1st distribution will release $1.2B to creditors with claims under $50k:
📆 18 Feb 2025, 10am ET
👉 $800M for KYC-approved claims.
👉 $345M pending KYC.

This is just the start of what could shake up the markets. 🚨

Makes sense, let's wait for the other claims (>$50K).

A lot of these claims has been sold on secondary (for up to 10c on the dollar) It's a sell the news event sure but seems rather priced in an non of these players individually have enough capital to move markets. 
If I see a sizable red candle 18th I'm buying

Yeah, probably you're right. I'm waiting for the other claims, that could move the market

It’s uncertain, might not even be that impactful. But in general, i think nothing major is likely to happen before a big drop.
