		phire on Nov 11, 2022 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: FTX to file for U.S. bankruptcy, CEO resigns Yes, that's what's weird. FTX Trading Ltd is "is incorporated in Antigua and Barbuda, and headquartered in The Bahamas", yet the linked statement clearly says FTX Trading Ltd (plus the FTX US entity, and Alameda, and others) are filing for Chapter 11 under US law in Delaware. Is there a parent company of FTX Trading Ltd that's based in the US? Edit: Apparently "Paper Bird Inc" is registered in Delaware, is 100% owned by SBF, and has ~89% ownership of FTX Trading Ltd.

According to the filing Paper Bird Inc. owns approximately 75% of FTX Trading Ltd. - the rest is owned by third party investors.

It’s probably because the parentco is filing. Need to see the BK filing to understand.
