The FTX bankruptcy estate's decision to sell a 5% stake in AI startup Cursor for $200,000 in 2023 has come under scrutiny following a dramatic increase in the stake's value. SpaceX's recent acquisition of Cursor at a $60 billion valuation has elevated the worth of the previously sold stake to approximately $3 billion. Critics have raised concerns over FTX's asset disposal strategy, arguing that the premature sale may have deprived creditors of significant potential gains amid the tech sector's rapid growth. The situation highlights the challenges faced by bankruptcy estates in managing and liquidating assets effectively.
