The motion to pause repayments to residents of certain countries has added a new wrinkle to the FTX saga.

A Chinese creditor has filed an objection to a motion from the FTX estate that would pause payouts to residents in jurisdictions with laws or regulations restricting cryptocurrency transactions, according to a Tuesday court filing.

The creditor, Weiwei Ji, stated that although they reside in Singapore, they have been classified as a Chinese creditor due to holding a Chinese passport. Ji noted that the objection was submitted on behalf of Ji and a growing group of Chinese creditors — reportedly over 300 individuals, according to the filing.

The objection raises two key arguments: First, that FTX settlements are made in US dollars, which are a standard legal repayment method. Second, it notes that cryptocurrency distributions are legal in China, with digital assets constituting “personal property.”

“My family holds four KYC-verified accounts with aggregate claims exceeding $15 million USD… We have fully complied with every procedural requirement under the Plan. The proposed motion now jeopardizes our right to distribution in an arbitrary and inequitable manner,” Ji argues in the document.
