A new plan by FTX's trustees lays out how aggrieved parties can recover most of their assets.

The concept presented provides for repayment of up to 90 percent of all creditor assets held on the exchange before the collapse. For this purpose, the exchange will be divided into three categories: a pool for customer assets of FTX.com, one for FTX.US and a general pool.

Excluded from the plan are "insiders, participants and customers" who knew about the commingling of customer assets. New developments in the Sam Bankman-Fried lawsuit had revealed the extent of fraud within FTX's top management.

The successful implementation of the plan depends on resolving state tax issues and claims. The plan is to file the relevant documents with a U.S. bankruptcy court by Dec. 16. The compensation plan could go into effect in the fourth quarter of 2024.
