According to a court document filed on Monday, FTX subsidiary Alameda Research has withdrawn its lawsuit against Grayscale Investments, which accused the firm of sacrificing shareholder interests for its own gain. It is reported that Alameda filed the lawsuit in March last year in a Delaware court, alleging that Grayscale charged exorbitant fees and refused to allow investors to redeem their shares from its two cryptocurrency-focused trust funds.

Peter Easton, an accounting professor at Notre Dame University, appeared in court to explain the severity of Alameda Research's alleged misuse of FTX client and investor funds. Based on Easton's testimony and a large number of process diagrams, between January 4, 2022 and February 11, 2022, $1.1 billion of FTX client deposits flowed to Alameda Research, with most of it being used for political donations, real estate investments, venture capital, and charitable donations. In June 2022, Alameda's debt to FTX clients reached $11.3 billion, while Alameda and FTX's bank accounts had about $2.3 billion. This means that if every client chooses to withdraw their funds, the shortfall that Alameda and FTX cannot make up will reach $9 billion.
