FTX has yet to disclose the specific cryptocurrencies affected by this initiative, as well as the exact amount being transferred.<\/p>\n<p>FTX added that it is migrating <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/coins\/solana\/\">Solana<\/a> (SOL) to <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/companies\/bitgo\/\">BitGo<\/a>, its qualified cryptocurrency custodian. FTX formerly maintained a close relationship with Solana, and the two parties formed mutual investments and partnerships prior to FTX\u2019s collapse.<\/p>\n<p>The exact value of FTX\u2019s crypto holdings remains uncertain. Reports from April <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/technology\/bankrupt-crypto-exchange-ftx-has-recovered-73-bln-assets-attorney-2023-04-12\/\">suggested that<\/a> FTX had recovered $7.3 billion of cash and crypto but provided no distinction between the two. Arkham Intelligence, which <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/platform.arkhamintelligence.com\/explorer\/entity\/ftx\">provides data<\/a> on FTX\u2019s known addresses, suggests that the company has at least $384 million of crypto including 1,169 SOL ($23,860).<\/p>\n<p>FTX\u2019s latest statement may partially confirm reports from <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/ftx-cold-wallet-moved-almost-10m-in-altcoins-to-ethereum-since-aug-31\/\">Sept. 2<\/a>. Those reports suggested that the company moved $10 million in SOL and other Solana-based altcoins to Ethereum via the Wormhole Bridge in a matter of days.<\/p>\n<h2>Consolidating assets<\/h2>\n<p>Though FTX did not provide any reason for the latest transfers, its movements seem to be part of its ongoing attempts to consolidate assets. After FTX gathers its funds, it could redeem assets, compensate customers, and possibly relaunch its exchange.<\/p>\n<p>The latest transfers are not the company\u2019s only attempts to move and gather funds.\u00a0 On <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/ftx-wants-court-to-allow-up-to-200m-weekly-crypto-sale-restart-hedging-btc\/\">Aug. 24<\/a>, the company filed to have Galaxy Digital manage sales of cryptocurrency on a recurring basis. Additionally, reports from March suggest that FTX transferred about <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wallets-connected-to-ftx-transfer-over-100m-stablecoins-to-exchanges\/\">$100 million<\/a> of dollars worth of stablecoins to exchanges.<\/p>\n<p>While FTX has not officially confirmed all of its transfers, it has been more transparent about non-crypto transactions.
