Court findings revealed massive financial damage as FTX customers lost around $8 billion, investors around $1.7 billion, and lenders to Alameda Research (SBF\u2019s other venture), approximately $1.3 billion.<\/p>\n<p>SBF has continued to challenge the narrative surrounding the case despite the conviction. In the interview now, he claimed he had not stolen user funds and pointed to ongoing bankruptcy proceedings that have reportedly led to customers recovering more than their original deposits due to the rebound in crypto prices.<\/p>\n<p>According to his estimations, some users may have received up to 170% of their initial balance, which, he added, meant that the platform was ultimately \u201cover-collateralized.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>FTT, the native token of the FTX exchange, reacted with an instant price uptick after the interview went live. The token is currently up by over 50% on a daily scale, trading around $0.37 for the first time in almost a month.<\/p>\n<figure aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1439316\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1439316 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/FTT.png\" alt=\"FTTUSD.
