SBF, the founder of FTX, issued an apology letter on the evening of November 10, expressing regret for the recent difficulties faced by FTX and explaining the current situation. He stated that the total asset value of FTX International is still higher than customer deposits, but there are serious liquidity issues.

SBF admitted that he made mistakes in two key areas. First, the company's internal management of bank-related account labels was inadequate, which led him to seriously underestimate the actual leverage ratio of users. Second, he failed to respond promptly to the sudden large-scale withdrawal requests on Sunday, with a withdrawal demand of about $5 billion far exceeding previous records.

In response to the current situation, SBF stated that he will do everything possible to improve liquidity and is negotiating with multiple parties, including signing letters of intent and investment term sheets. He promised to directly give every penny and all collateral to users until all user issues are resolved.

In addition, SBF announced that Alameda Research will end its trading business. He emphasized that regardless of how FTX develops in the future, the top priority is to achieve complete transparency, allowing all stakeholders to participate in the operations of FTX.

SBF specifically pointed out that this incident only involves FTX International, while FTX US, as an independent US exchange, has not been affected in its financial situation, and users can withdraw normally.

Finally, SBF once again apologized to all those affected and promised to share the latest developments in a timely manner. He stated that he would take full responsibility and do everything possible to do the right thing for the users.
