During the April 12 court hearing, FTX attorney Andy Dietderich said FTX is in talks with interested parties about options for relaunching and could make a decision this quarter.

Earlier, former FTX senior executive Zane Tackett called for the restart of the exchange. He believes the new platform should offer a similar product suite, as well as a marketplace for trading claims on the exchange with debt tokens.
