What Will FTX Creditors Do With Their Refund? Crypto Reinvestment Trends Revealed

Published by

The FTX collapse was one of the biggest shocks to the crypto market, wiping out billions and shaking investor confidence. But for many creditors, it’s not the end of the road – it’s a fresh opportunity. A new survey reveals that 79% of FTX creditors plan to reinvest their repayments into crypto instead of cashing out. And they’re not just playing it safe.

Solana is the top choice, with 62% of respondents betting on its future, while 44% are backing Solana-based projects. Meanwhile, meme coins and AI tokens are also gaining traction, reflecting the growing appetite for high-risk, high-reward investments.

Adding fuel to the fire, Donald Trump’s recent endorsement of Solana, AI, and meme coins, along with a new SEC panel, is stirring up bullish sentiment.

Solana Stands Strong

A survey by NFTevening and Storible found that 62% of 1,016 respondents believe Solana is a top contender for the next bull run. Even after the LIBRA rug pull and Meteora scandal, 44% of creditors still plan to reinvest in Solana-related projects.

However, the survey was structured in a way that favored Solana supporters. Only those holding at least 10% of their portfolio in Solana or owning $100 worth of SOL for over a year were eligible to participate. This raises questions about whether the results reflect all FTX creditors or mainly dedicated Solana investors. Still, Solana remains a strong choice despite its price swings.

Meme Coins and AI Tokens Gain Attention

Beyond Solana, investors are also betting on meme coins and AI tokens, drawn to their high-risk, high-reward nature. Ethereum ranks as the second most popular pick, with 31% of respondents allocating funds to its ecosystem, while 16% favor BNB Chain and 9% are exploring other networks.

The next round of FTX repayments is set for May 30, covering more creditors. Those seeking repayment must verify their claims by April 11 to be eligible.

While many creditors are eager to reinvest, market conditions will influence their choices. If Solana drops below $145, 71% of creditors plan to hold or buy more, showing strong confidence in its future. Rather than cashing out, many investors see this as a chance to double down.

Meme coins and AI tokens, which also dipped in February, could benefit if even a portion of these funds flows into them. A fresh wave of reinvestment could help these sectors regain momentum.

Is This a True Bullish Signal?

While the survey suggests a bullish outlook, it’s important to be cautious. Since it mainly reflects Solana-heavy investors, it’s unclear whether the broader FTX creditor base shares the same enthusiasm.

That said, one thing is clear—FTX creditors are not walking away from crypto. Whether Solana and meme coins will fully capitalize on this trend remains to be seen, but their willingness to reinvest rather than exit the market signals ongoing confidence in the industry.
