FTX Signs Deal With Tron to Let Users Swap Certain Tokens Including TRX, Sun

Cointime Official

FTX is enabling its customers to withdraw their funds, but only if they buy certain tokens from the Tron network.

The collapsing crypto exchange FTX announced today that it has reached an agreement with Tron to establish a special facility to allow holders of TRX, BTT, JST, SUN, and HT to swap assets from FTX 1:1 to external wallets. This functionality will be enabled at 18:30 UTC, November 10, 2022.

The exact capacity of the Tron Token facility will be determined weekly and future injections will occur at 14:00 UTC. The amount to be deposited will depend on a number of factors such as withdrawal demand and funding capacity to be provided by Tron.

As part of this agreement, FTX will be disabling Tron deposits for all users during this period. The only deposits will be the pre-announced deposits conducted weekly by the Tron Team. Initially, $13,000,000 of assets will be deployed to facilitate such swaps. Information on future capital injections will be shared on a weekly basis.

"We hope this is just step one: beginning to find ways to bring liquidity to users," FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried said on Twitter, "That is the core thing that I am fighting for right now, and will continue to fight for in whatever ways I can."

  • US and Iran Exchange Conflicting Statements on Negotiations

    On March 24, Iran on Monday denied having held any negotiations with the United States, after U.S. President Trump postponed a threat to bomb Iran's power grid, citing "productive dialogue" with unnamed Iranian officials. The Speaker of the Iranian Parliament called it "fake news." According to CCTV News, a senior Iranian official stated that Trump has no right to set conditions or deadlines for negotiations. The official indicated that messages have been conveyed between Iran and the U.S. through Egypt and Turkey with the aim of easing tensions, but the U.S. has not yet accepted Iran's two core conditions: compensation for damages and acknowledgment of violations against Iran. The official also stated that the issues of closing the Strait of Hormuz and laying mines remain among Iran's prepared options for potential actions. Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Bahaei said on Monday that Iran had received messages from some friendly countries in the past few days regarding the U.S. demand to end the war through negotiations, and had responded appropriately based on its principled stance, without holding any negotiations with the U.S. A European official stated that although no direct negotiations have taken place between the two countries, Egypt, Pakistan, and Gulf states have been relaying messages. A Pakistani official and another source revealed to Reuters that direct negotiations to end the conflict could be held as early as this week in Islamabad. The Pakistani official said that U.S. Vice President JD Vance, along with Vitkov and Kushner, are expected to meet with Iranian officials in Islamabad this week, following a phone call between Trump and Pakistan's Chief of Army Staff Asim Munir. The White House confirmed the call between Trump and Munir. When asked about the potential visit of Vitkov and Kushner to Islamabad, White House spokesperson Karoline Leavitt stated: "These are sensitive diplomatic discussions, and the United States does not negotiate through the media. The situation is still evolving, and speculation about meetings should not be considered final until officially announced by the White House."
