Recently, the FTX bankruptcy liquidation process has entered a critical stage. According to the latest distribution plan document disclosed by the bankruptcy administrators, the second round of compensation plans to exclude creditors from 49 judicial jurisdictions, including mainland China, from the main compensation list has sparked widespread controversy. On July 22, the US Bankruptcy Court held a hearing to formally listen to statements from different groups, including Chinese creditors. To respond to this hearing and potential damage to the compensation rights of Chinese users, the decentralized rights advocacy organization Fair 3 Community recently initiated an online public discussion themed "Restoring the Truth Behind FTX Chinese Creditors' Rights Protection". The event aims to build a cross-regional, multi-perspective dialogue platform, inviting Chinese creditor representative Will, legal expert Lawyer Tian, and multiple community members who have experienced the filing, communication, and compensation process, to collectively sort out the legal structure, procedural risks, and rights protection paths behind the FTX liquidation case, providing information support and action reference for a broader range of affected users.

According to recent materials submitted by the official bankruptcy administrators, the second round of FTX compensation will follow a stricter "compliance review" system. Based on account registration, KYC, and trading activities, users from specific judicial jurisdictions will be identified as "Restricted Claimants" and thus not included in the compensation plan. This list covers 49 countries or regions, including mainland China, Russia, and Iran, with conservative estimates of debt amounts exceeding hundreds of millions of dollars. At the July 22 hearing, FTX's lawyer cited US financial sanctions and anti-money laundering regulations to defend this policy, claiming that these regions pose "legal enforcement risks" and "political sensitivity". However, multiple creditor representatives clearly pointed out that such exclusion criteria lack legal basis and fail to consider the already completed document verification process during debt filing, potentially constituting "selective compensation" and procedural injustice.

·Second, expand user story dissemination through social platforms, create community consensus, and form a cross-language and cross-jurisdictional voice network;

·Third, collaborate with international lawyers to promote representative creditors' participation in the next round of distribution negotiations and strive for the right to speak in terms of procedural legitimacy.

Will emphasized, "The most important thing is to let the judge hear our voices and see that we are not anonymous numbers, but real users with stories, legitimate rights, and community support."

Fair 3 Community's Role: A Collective Action Platform in a Decentralized Context

Fair 3 Community is an open collaborative platform initiated by decentralization advocates, dedicated to providing an organized action mechanism for global Web3 users facing unfair phenomena. In the FTX compensation event, Fair 3 launched the "FTX Co-creation Whiteboard" program, encouraging users excluded from compensation to submit complete application records, assist in collecting data and cases, and help connect legal aid and media resources. In the future, Fair 3 will continue to promote broader collective action by providing expression spaces for anonymous users through "legal interpretation drafts" and "consensus canvases".

Fair 3 stated that it will continue to track the legal dynamics of the FTX liquidation process and promote possible collective lawsuits or legal negotiations based on community consensus. This event will also become an important case for Fair 3 in promoting the "Web3 User Cross-border Asset Rights Protection Mechanism" globally.
