However, according to Arkham's investigation, not long before its bankruptcy filing, Alameda Research withdrew more than $200 million worth of crypto assets from the FTX US exchange, while most of them, namely 69.8%, were sent to wallets associated with FTX International, affiliated with Sam Bankman-Freed.

FTX has had its ups and downs and it will be more like what it is now. I don't think the price will be good for long. if you see the price is decreasing day by day, it's wise to stop temporarily trading FTT or wait a few months and see what happens to the FTX value itself but if you can control it it's okay I think.
Ups and downs are normal here in crypto but with the issue FTX are facing lately, I don't think they can be able to go up anymore and they are likely going to be the next luna as what others are saying but as usual, there will be greedy people who will love to take a risk and insist to invest. For those who have FTT, it would be better if they can sell it now, now that it still has a value and it is still listed on some exchanges. Don't wait till it drop more and will be delisted. You have been warned!

There are still other coins out there who are owned by a crypto exchanger. Bnb for example. We can switch on them if we prefer those type of coins for investment or for trading purposes.

Yes, they are very safe for you if you want to get hammered by them. This post should be locked by now before any careless citizen tries to use FTX again. After Mr.Gox this is the most significant scandal the crypto space has. This will drive away many potential companies and individuals from bitcoin. Though this incident has nothing to do with bitcoin many people still call it a crypto scam now.

There are many contradictory messages excluding each other, so according to Reuters, it turns out that SBF secretly transferred $10 billion of client funds from FTX to the trading company Bankman-Fried Alameda Research, but SBF denies this.

  - With what is happening now with the FTX issue, I think it will take a long time before FTX recovers from the market. It has only been happening for a few days since its value fell on all the exchanges where FTT is listed.

Now, when it comes to the pending withdrawal issues of their users in the FTX exchange, they are still waiting for the latest updates made by the management team of FTX despite the resignation of their CEO that I read on the Twitter platform.

Binance still refuses to take over FTX, and according to the company's statement, it can be concluded that Binance came to this decision due to the impossibility of solving the problems that arose with the FTX platform, also emphasizing that the company used customer funds carelessly and at its discretion.

Obviously, there are other companies besides Binance that wish to purchase the FTX exchange at a reduced price. Sam Bankman-Fried reports about this on his Twitter page https://twitter.com/SBF_FTX/status/1590709182684360705 - "There are a number of players who we are in talks with, LOIs, term sheets, etc." So we need to stock up on popcorn and wait for this mess to end.

CEO Samuel Banckman-Fried announced an update to the FTX platform, which will take place on November 21 when the exchange switches to v2.0. A new order matching mechanism will be introduced, which should ensure an increase in the speed of their execution, which will reduce delays. The upcoming update is also aimed at improving the API and other functions.

But I could not use FTX properly. When I use ftx it works very slow, which annoys me a lot. One day I went to trade on ftx but there I could not trade as fast as Binance. I haven't used ftx since then.
Is this just my problem? Or have any of you had this problem?

FTX is actively exploring the crypto space, so it is reported that FTX won the auction for the sale of the bankrupt lender Voyager Digital, offering about $1.4billion for the deal.
Sam SBF and FTX have different approach than CZ and Binance in this bear market.

CZ and Binance would like to let bad projects to die because they consider it as a way to clean the market.

Sam SBF and FTX would like to rescue those projects by some methods and they consider it as chances for them to build up reputation and expand the ecosystem of FTX. If they do it in bull market, they must spend more capital but with this bear market and lot of collapsed projects, they can achieve same result but at with lower cost.

but don't worry FTX is Tier 1 , so you can say FTX is the same as Binance,
only they have to put more effort in order to reach the top 1 best exchange in their eyes crypto money,
if you want to invest in their token FTT of course it's very good for the long term

FTX is a rising exchange and their founder has conflict with Changpeng Zao, the founder of Binance. Two exchanges are competing very seriously against each other.

I don't like the interface of FTX but maybe I don't use it too often and are not familiar with its interface. About front-run issue, it happens on many exchanges especially small or medium exchanges. On smaller and medium exchanges, you will see front run issues very clearly. I am not sure about that on FTX but it is a very serious fud attack on FTX.
They are a known and successful exchange but this will continue to improve now that their names are being talked about these days. I remember they have done a partnership with fifa, they help users of mt. gox and others which I forget for now. The word conflict is different with competing but ftx and binance are on the same line so it's normal to see a competition between them.

If it's true that ftx do have a conflict with binance, what could that be? Do you want us to make our own research? Ok fine. Ftx may have other disadvantages but for sure they have an advantage which you can not possibly find in binance and on other crypto exchanges.

FTX exchange growth is very significant. We know that this is right now on the top 2 on spot exchange and top 7 on derivatives.
As I know, this exchange also offers lower fees and transactions or withdrawals. Commonly it is also used at least when we are going to send only a few coins amount as gas fees.
However, this has been in the top two so the reputation really grows very well and increasing.
But for the derivative, I still never used it yet.

I bought some "3x short Bitcoin tokens" 7/25/2021 on FTX when the Bitcoin rate was BTC1/$34175 for 329USDT. 1 btc have been around $40000 for a long time now, and currently it's even down to ≈1BTC/22000 but my 3x short Bitcoin position is still currently only worth around 111USDT. I understand it's about time and value of an underlying asset. I also learned about "volatility decay" then there is a fee on this leverage. Furthermore, I don't think btc will fall much under $20000. But how long will it take for my short position to recover in this bear market, will it ever?

True that. There was a time I abandoned binance futures for FTX futures mainly because their platform was less buggy compared to Binance especially in times where Binance uptime takes a dive. For instance, in high volatility periods and Binance goes down at such critical time. It's always disappointing to not be able to manage trades (close/open).
FTX used to receive investment budget from Binance but after the exchange grew and became bigger. Sam SBF decided to do buy back for FTX as their strategy to get rid of impact from Binance which is one of competitors of FTX.

This approach means Sam SBF and FTX really consider Binance as a competitor and they want to fight with Binance in the future. They choose Solana network because Sam saw that Solana has its good potential to surpass Ethereum and Binance network in scale capacity and solve the expensive transaction fee for people.

It won't be easy to surpass two big networks but the Solana ecosystem is growing fast enough.

Anyway, FTX has been doing well so far with partnerships, listing and some sponsorships. I'd like to see where they'd be positioned in the coming years.
They do good partnership and expands to other nations with FTX branch companies. Initially in new nations they expand to, they obey law regulations and implement KYC at beginning.

FTX is good with withdrawal fee than some exchanges. Deposit and Withdrawal fee
Quote
There are no fees on deposits and withdrawals, except for ETH, ERC-20 tokens, or small BTC withdrawals.  FTX users will pay the blockchain fees for all ETH, ERC20 tokens unless they have FTT staked.

FTX is a great exchange imho as it gives me the freedom to trade on any markets including futures, predictions, options, volatility, etc. even without the need to move my funds from main account to margin account, futures account, etc. because everything is inbuilt and robust and unlike other exchanges where I need to move them from here to there (many different types for different purposes) to trade them on a unique market. It quickly converts my money to any currency for least fees in the wallet area only, no need to go to the trading area for that.

I've been curious about their leveraged BULL/BEAR tokens, which are similar to 3x ProShares UltraPro ETFs you find for commodities and stock indices. https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.53847830

Any idea about VPN policy? They don't allow US customers but Tier 1 verification (email/name/country) allows $2000 per day in withdrawals. That's good enough for me if I can squeak by behind a VPN.

In this case the biggest problem on Binance Exchange is the limited number of transactions that can be made each day and that is what some traders from other countries also complain about. it's just that if you want to keep using a VPN in every transaction, it's also not a problem.
if in terms of what FTX offers, of course it can make it easier for you to transact up to large withdrawal transactions.
good luck

2, Where I could verify about the volume of exchanges so that I myself conclude about the 5th highest volume.

Note: For free withdrawals, however, in the case of a user whose fiat/stablecoin deposit/withdrawal volume exceeds their trading volume, we reserve the right to charge a withdrawal fee of up to 0.10%.  We will reach out to any users affected before applying this.  

Small BTC withdrawal fees: BTC withdrawals > 0.01 BTC are free. BTC withdrawals < 0.01 BTC are charged withdrawal fees after your first free one per day.

You will really realize how FTX Exchange is the best compare to Binance if you start using FTX Exchange and you also tried to use Binance.
Very fast to use and downtimes in FTX are really different with Binance, really far, FTX got a huge advantage.

And if you don't know, Binance and FTX are strategic partners: Strategic Partnership with Binance

This partnership is making it appear that Sam Bankman-Fried will not be the Binance killer, however, I speculate Sam will make the moves to take Binance’s market share in America first and then globally. CZ might become the next Arthur Hayes hehehehe.

FTX is also rivaling against Binance with their own blockchain called Solana which might also become the Binance smartchain killer. I predict SOL and FTT to be top 10 in coinmarketcap.com by 2025.

No one here mentioned the generosity of FTX to waive the withdrawal fee for users. The more FTT staked you have, the more number of free withdrawal per day.
Blockchain Deposits and Withdrawals

On FTX, you can deposit your BTC on OMNI layer or ERC20, TRC20 or SPL. The OMNI layer will be deprecated. FTX requires only 2 confirmations for your BTC deposits that help you to have shorter waiting time for account balance credit. Other exchanges can require 3 confirmations.

It is better than Binance as there are 0 withdrawal fees on bitcoin transactions and some waived off transactions too on ERC20 network for FTT holders. I am a fan of their portal and trade there only as they are providing what Binance is giving at their exchange, but Binance lags sometimes and FTX is easy going.

For Options, I use Sparrow Exchange. Its a lot simpler to trade there with their UI. I do have have accounts on Deribit as well as FTX. Its nice to have competition in the derivatives market. You can get some good value trades out of it, juggling through the platforms.

I tried their leverage bull and bear token on bitmarx I was using binance before it was removed. The truth is that it makes you choose easily between bull and bear market but the drawback is also there.

I've been curious about their leveraged BULL/BEAR tokens, which are similar to 3x ProShares UltraPro ETFs you find for commodities and stock indices. https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.53847830

Any idea about VPN policy? They don't allow US customers but Tier 1 verification (email/name/country) allows $2000 per day in withdrawals. That's good enough for me if I can squeak by behind a VPN.

Dont see why it wouldn't work but obviously do so at your own risk

Lately I've been trading more and more on FTX.com, mainly due to all the issues that Binance has been having. The options and types of contracts available on FTX are unique and can't be found anywhere else and it now ranks as the 5th highest volume exchange.

Decided to do a full write up of the exchange and my trading experience there: https://www.cryptoadvocate.net/post/ftx-review
