FTX has been emailing to all its users for filing a claim. If they intend only to refund to few countries user like Japan and the US, then what is the point in collecting the full KYC data of all the users. Asking for proof of address is something fishy because this information was not asked at the initial KYC process at the FTX.com.
I think it's more fitting to say that Japan is the only exception, not that there are only specific countries eligible for the claim. Not saying this is not the case though, since who knows what they will do behind the scenes with how ambiguous the legal process can be. But yeah, if you don't have a lot of money left on FTX, maybe it is better to wait and see how the process turns out instead of sending more personal details that might end up in hackers' hands due to FTX or their partner's mistakes. CMIW.
This is not something where you can wait and see if they are giving funds back to other perople, then you can claim yours and get them. This is time bound. The deadline to submit the claims in 29 september. So if any does not do all these kyc and claim their case, they are basiclally forfeiting your assets left at ftx.
Anyways, i still not got any email from FTX, regardless of the fact that i send them the reminder emails twice. Look like i am not going to get mine funds too
(If ftx decides to relase the funds to everyone someday)
