I wonder if this means SBF will continue operating FTX.us as a competitor to other US-based exchanges.

Really seems like vindication for the US's regulatory scheme that in that it keeps US customers out of these shenanigans.

Asset custodians operate on trust. FTX has torched its trust. I don’t believe the US entity will be viable going forward.
