The company is still in the early stages of deciding whether to bring back the exchange, which allowed customers to trade digital assets before FTX collapsed. The company could also try to raise money to fund a restart, in which case capital could come from third parties willing to invest in the project, or FTX could use some of the $7.3b worth of cash, crypto and other assets it has so far collected. That money is being held until FTX wins final court approval for a creditor payout plan.
