FTX EU’s Collapse and Its Aftermath

FTX EU, which was granted a regulatory license to operate in the European Union, became embroiled in the collapse of its parent company, FTX, in late 2022. Following FTX Group’s bankruptcy, FTX EU ceased operations, leaving customers unable to access their funds. Backpack’s acquisition of FTX EU is part of the broader effort to liquidate FTX’s global assets under the supervision of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court
