Galaxy Digital Disclose Approximately $76.8 Million Exposure to FTX.

According to Galaxy Digital’s third-quarter earnings report, the publicly-listed firm has an FTX exposure of approximately $76.8 million in cash and digital assets.

The news comes as little surprise, following the announcement by many exchange executives, including Coinbase, that they had no material exposure to the troubled exchange.

Loss $68 million in the third quarter

According to the company, its net loss for the third quarter was $68 million, and assets under management increased 17% from the previous quarter to nearly $2 billion.

According to the company, its losses were attributable to “reduced valuations on certain investments due to external market conditions,” and to an increase in operating expenses for its mining business. There was a cash balance of $1 billion and a liquidity position of $1.5 billion.

A year-long slump in crypto assets and traditional assets has also contributed to the results, also following Binance’s expected purchase of FTX after the collapse of its native token FTT.
