Deadline Alert!

According to the notice from FTX, the deadline for customer claims, known as the FTX Customer Claims Bar Date, is rapidly approaching – set for September 29, 2023, at 4 PM United States Eastern Time. For those who missed previous opportunities to claim their losses, this is the final chance to take action against the FTX Debtors.

Here’s how to navigate the claim process:

To initiate the claims process, users must first log in to the FTX Claims Portal. FTX Debtors have requested Know Your Customer (KYC) information, including customer claims for former consumers. While the submission of KYC information is strongly recommended, it’s important to note that it is not mandatory to submit a claim.

For those concerned about KYC, the review and verification process will continue even after the Bar Date. However, it’s essential to remember that all claims must be made in U.S. Dollars, and you must specify your preferred compensation asset, whether it’s cryptocurrency, NFTs, or fiat currencies.
