According to a recent Bloomberg report, the bankrupt crypto exchange FTX has decided to auction off another unspecified amount of Solana (SOL) tokens this week. People familiar with the matter revealed that a “blind auction” is scheduled for the next batch of SOL.

Kyle Chasse, a Bitcoin proponent, shared an X post on April 23, unveiling FTX’s plans for the next batch of SOL auctions. He stated, “FTX will be auctioning off its remaining SOL tokens.”

Reportedly, FTX sold almost $307.6 million of SOL and ZBC tokens in March. In a previous report dated March 29, it was unveiled that 41 million locked Solana tokens worth $7.5 billion were sold by FTX, invoking investors’ speculations.

In a recent report, Mike Cagney, the co-founder and CEO of Figure Markets, hinted at FTX’s Solana auction deal. He asserted that the sale would not take place at a fixed price for the entire holding.
