Game footage continues as finance checks exchange exposure

After withdrawals slowed the previous day, finance had been asked to check the studio’s exposure to exchanges. The community team was still preparing the ground for the Final Form update. Players wanted to see new game material, but they were also asking whether the FTX turmoil could reach the studio.

FTX stopped withdrawals in the morning. In the afternoon, Binance signed a letter of intent to acquire FTX, a sudden turn that was not a completed purchase. Within two days FTT fell from USD 22 to below USD 5, and BTC dropped below USD 19,000. The studio released another clip of an evolution sequence as planned, while finance spent the night checking its exposure exchange by exchange, unwilling to rely on rescue headlines for reassurance.

The clip showed players that work on the game was continuing; the financial review turned a vague worry into a question the studio had to answer. Whether the letter of intent would lead to a deal was unsettled, and the review was unfinished. The community team planned to wait for information finance could confirm before answering further questions about the studio’s funds.
