Ripple lawyer challenges FTX Investors

In a recent interaction with CNBC, Kevin O Leary mentioned that the shareholders of FTX including him, might not get anything in return. The venture investors who lost their money understand this, he added.

Kevin stated that he doesn’t want anything back until the users who had money in their accounts got it back.
