FTX Is Not Buying Huobi
Sam Bankman-Fried, CEO of crypto exchange FTX took to Twitter to dismiss the growing assumptions of the masses concerning the acquisition of crypto exchange Huobi.&
It was earlier reported that FTX was actively eyeing crypto exchange Huobi and may soon propose an acquisition deal for the same, however, on Monday, SBF issued a new clarification via Twitter adding that FTX is not planning to buy Huobi.

FTX Expands Its Base To Attract New Users
The Bahamas-based FTX crypto exchange has continuously been scaling its services to establish a sturdy user base. The exchange has been on a consistent spending spree looking forward to new acquisitions in its bid to expand its reach. The exchange along with its US-based subsidiary had recently raised nearly $2 billion which according to SBF could be used to pursue suitable acquisitions.
“FTX is a profitable company…You can look at the amount that we’ve raised over the last year or two — it’s a few billion dollars. That gives maybe a sense of where we are in terms of cash that was explicitly viewed from a potential acquisition angle.” SBF later shared (Bloomberg)
FTX has consistently been working towards its expansion with the intent to offer a new suite of products to the masses. The exchange had earlier acquired LedgerX, which is a Commodity Futures Trading Commission-regulated exchange and clearing house. In April, the firm had also invested its stake in IEX Group INC, alongside investing a 7.6% stake in Robinhood Markets Inc in its bid to establish market dominance.
