FTX’s Lost Billions: Portfolio Could Have Hit $114B

FTX liquidators sold the Alameda Research stake in Cursor’s developer, Anysphere, for just $200,000 during the bankruptcy process, missing out on massive upside. Alameda originally backed Anysphere with $200,000 for roughly 5% of the company. Today, SpaceX has secured an option to acquire Cursor for $60 billion later this year or pay $10 billion for their partnership, as it pushes into AI coding tools ahead of a potential IPO. That same stake could now be worth billions based on Cursor’s soaring valuation.
