According to ChainCatcher news, as reported by Forbes, the bankruptcy estate of FTX has initiated 23 new lawsuits against institutions such as Binance, Anthony Scaramucci, SkyBridge Capital, Crypto.com, and even the lobbying group Fwd.us supported by Mark Zuckerberg, in an attempt to recover funds for creditors.

These lawsuits allege that the funds transferred to these organizations were part of a larger "influence-buying campaign" orchestrated by FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried. According to the legal documents, Bankman-Fried funneled money into political and traditional financial sectors through sponsorships, investments, and donations to enhance his reputation while concealing FTX's increasingly severe financial instability.

The lawsuits claim that these expenditures provided "little to no benefit" to FTX or its creditors, primarily serving to maintain the illusion of financial stability as the company struggled with a significant gap in its balance sheet.
