IRS claiming $44B from FTX bankruptcy: Report

The United States Department of Treasury and Internal Revenue Service (IRS) have filed 45 claims worth $44 billion against bankrupt cryptocurrency exchange FTX and its subsidiaries.

In what appears to be a tax bill for FTX’s sister company Alameda Research LLC that circulated online on May 10, the IRS assessed the firm $20.4 billion due in partnership taxes and payroll taxes. The assessment appears to match the IRS claim found on the website of Kroll’s Restructuring Administration practice, FTX’s claims agent.In one single claim, the IRS assessed a balance of $20.4 billion against Alameda Research.
