The bankrupt crypto exchange said Sunday that it is contacting anyone who received payments made by Sam Bankman-Fried, other FTX executives, or any of the affiliated companies that have filed for bankruptcy. In total, FTX employees donated $90 million to politicians, per The New York Times, and the debtors are trying to claim that back to reimburse customers.
FTX has chased politicians like Nancy Pelosi to return donations given before the crypto giant's collapse. They now have a deadline of February 28 to pay.
FTX previously asked for the money to be returned in December; donor recipients now have until the end of February to return funds.
