“We look forward to an order from the Delaware Bankruptcy Court, which should tell us exactly where to transfer the FTX deposit. Our sole concern has been to have a clear direction on who, the FTX debtor-in-possession or the Bahamian Joint Provisional Liquidator, is entitled to the deposit, because we cannot be put in a position to pay the deposit back twice. We intend to file a motion with the Delaware Bankruptcy Court asking for clear direction.”
