The bankrupt cryptocurrency exchange FTX announced in December last year that its court-approved restructuring plan is scheduled to take effect on Jan. 3, 2025. As part of the plan, initial repayments to priority claimants are expected to begin within 60 days of this date.
Taiwan-based digital asset management platform Steaker, which was affected by the FTX bankruptcy, has been striving to mitigate the impact of the collapse on its operations and users. In response, the company introduced the “Dawn Project,” a compensation initiative that has achieved a settlement rate of over 85% to date, reflecting steady progress in resolving challenges arising from the incident.
Since the project’s launch, Steaker has adhered to a monthly compensation schedule as outlined in its public updates. The company has also collaborated with relevant parties in the US to facilitate the full implementation of the project and safeguard the interests of affected users.

As an impacted platform, Steaker emphasized its commitment to responsibility and fairness. Nearly two years after the FTX incident, the company confirmed that, neither Steaker nor its founder has been formally indicted related to the case. Steaker continues to engage with relevant authorities and remains fully committed to complying with all applicable laws and regulations.
To ensure faster compensation delivery, Steaker urged users interested in joining the project to promptly complete the required documentation. Doing so helps streamline the process and enables the company to expedite compensation once repayments are issued by FTX.
For users already participating in the project, Steaker reminded them to verify that their exchange wallets designated as the EOA (Externally Owned Account) address for receiving compensation are valid, as exchanges may update wallet addresses. Ensuring accuracy is crucial to prevent users from failing to receive their compensation.

Steaker expressed gratitude to its users for their trust and support. The company stated, “We appreciate the continued patience and encouragement of our users as we work diligently to ensure fair and timely compensation.” Positive feedback from users has motivated the team and strengthened trust in Steaker’s efforts.
The company added that it is closely monitoring developments in the FTX bankruptcy proceedings and will provide updates to users as soon as specific repayment details are available. Compensation arrangements will be processed promptly upon confirmation.

To many, Tatu City on the outskirts of Nairobi looks like a success. The first city entirely built by a private company to be operational in east Africa, with about 25,000 people living and working there, it accounts for about two-thirds of all foreign investment in Kenya. Its low-tax status has attracted more than 100 businesses including Heineken, coffee brand Dormans, and the biggest call-center and cold-chain transport firms in the region. However, to some local politicians, Tatu City has looked more like a target for extortion. A parade of governors have demanded land worth millions of dollars in exchange
An Indonesian animated movie is smashing regional box office records and could be set for wider success as it prepares to open beyond the Southeast Asian archipelago’s silver screens.

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co’s (TSMC, 台積電) revenue jumped 48 percent last month, underscoring how electronics firms scrambled to acquire essential components before global tariffs took effect. The main chipmaker for Apple Inc and Nvidia Corp reported monthly sales of NT$349.6 billion (US$11.6 billion). That compares with the average analysts’ estimate for a 38 percent rise in second-quarter revenue. US President Donald Trump’s trade war is prompting economists to retool GDP forecasts worldwide, casting doubt over the outlook for everything from iPhone demand to computing and datacenter construction. However, TSMC — a barometer for global tech spending given its central role in the
Alchip Technologies Ltd (世芯), an application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) designer specializing in server chips, expects revenue to decline this year due to sagging demand for 5-nanometer artificial intelligence (AI) chips from a North America-based major customer, a company executive said yesterday. That would be the first contraction in revenue for Alchip as it has been enjoying strong revenue growth over the past few years, benefiting from cloud-service providers’ moves to reduce dependence on Nvidia Corp’s expensive AI chips by building their own AI accelerator by outsourcing chip design. The 5-nanometer chip was supposed to be a new growth engine as the lifecycle
