SBF said in an interview with CoinDesk that the explosion in the cryptocurrency market is pushing more households into the blockchain space. As long as the market does not fall in the future, this gap will continue. It should be noted that FTX's rapid growth this year has also led the outside world to believe that changes in the cryptocurrency market will affect FTX.

In this regard, SBF said that FTX would not be affected if the business reverses, as FTX's affiliates, securities, guarantees and other commitments comprise less than 10% of its turnover. Of course, if Bitcoin falls below $ 20,000, it could affect the value of FTX, but it is unlikely to fall even for the downsides of FTX. Although Bitcoin has been in the market for a long time, a new financial environment of $ 420 million still provides a financial firewall.
