FTX, a prominent cryptocurrency exchange, has filed a lawsuit in the US bankruptcy court against NFT Stars Limited and Kurosemi Inc. The companies are accused of failing to return crypto assets as per their contract agreements. This legal action is part of FTX’s efforts to recover assets on behalf of its creditors.
FTX Takes Legal Action
FTX demands the return of tokens as specified under alleged contractual terms. The tokens in question were acquired by Alameda Research, a trading subsidiary of FTX, under a Simple Agreement for Future Tokens (SAFT). Legal documents have been submitted to the court, seeking restitution of these assets along with punitive damages for non-compliance.
According to court filings, NFT Stars Limited is obliged to deliver 1,354,166 SENATE tokens and 135,416,666 SIDUS tokens to Maclaurin Investment. Maclaurin Investment, previously known as Alameda Ventures, had paid the predetermined amount under the agreement. The lawsuit aims to ensure the return of these assets under the established conditions.

FTX’s other lawsuit involves Kurosemi Inc., addressing disruptions related to the return of Delysium tokens. Allegedly, Maclaurin Investment paid $1 million to receive 75 million AGI tokens post-launch, but the tokens have yet to be delivered. There are assertions indicating that the token transfer may not occur as anticipated.
FTX: “We invite the issuers of tokens and coins to return assets belonging to FTX. If sufficient communication is not achieved, we will pursue legal avenues.”
Delysium Moderator: “Due to FTX’s bankruptcy, token distribution will not occur.”
In November 2022, FTX filed for bankruptcy following allegations of misusing customer deposits and mismanaging funds. This litigation process is part of a broader strategy aimed at protecting creditors’ rights and facilitating asset recovery.
The lawsuit is considered a recovery effort for FTX’s creditors, with its effects on the digital asset market being closely monitored. Developments related to communication efforts between parties and procedural steps in the litigation are deemed significant in terms of market regulations and asset recovery strategies.
