Not a price

A transferred claim amount is not the buyer's purchase price

A claim transfer leaves a public filing. That does not mean every detail of the sale is public. In the three notices below, seller names and addresses are withheld or redacted, while the buyer and transferred share remain visible.

These examples explain what a reader can find in those filings. They do not guarantee anonymity in every transfer or prevent a transaction from being identified through other records.

What Public FTX Transfer Notices Actually Disclose

We reviewed three partial-transfer filings dated April 18, 2023, June 27, 2023 and July 8, 2024. The table records the fields visible in each public PDF without reproducing customer codes, contact details or signatures.

Document	Seller	Buyer	Transferred share	Purchase price
D.I. 1305, pp. 1-2	Name and address withheld	Named	29.3412161%	Not stated
D.I. 1723, pp. 1-2	Name and address redacted or on file	Named	3.0091176421%	Not stated
D.I. 19726, pp. 1-5	Name and address redacted	Named	14.29%	No numerical price stated

Do not read a claim amount as a sale price. D.I. 1305 describes a transferred portion equivalent to $232,761.52 in claim value. D.I. 1723 identifies a transferred claim amount of $1,000,000. Neither figure is labelled as what the buyer paid. D.I. 19726 acknowledges consideration but gives no numerical purchase price.

The attachments also differ. D.I. 1305 and D.I. 1723 say the signed evidence of transfer was not attached and could be supplied to specified case participants on written request. D.I. 19726 includes redacted evidence of transfer. There is no single attachment pattern across even these three examples.

Method and limits. Reviewed September 14, 2026: all 11 pages of these three PDFs. We selected the two lowest-numbered entries from a previously identified nine-item metadata list of partial transfers, plus D.I. 19726, used in our earlier example. This is a small, purposive comparison, not a random sample or a census of FTX transfers. “Not stated” means no numerical purchase price was found in the reviewed PDF; it does not mean the price cannot appear elsewhere.

Public Filing and Unredacted Information Are Different

FTX's transfer guidelines say a Notice of Transfer must be filed on the public Chapter 11 docket. If it is redacted, Kroll requests the unredacted version to validate the transfer. A redacted public copy therefore does not mean the parties remain anonymous to Kroll. The SAC itself never gets filed with the court.

For an explanation of the contract and filing sequence, see the SAC agreement guide. For how a transferred percentage works, see our partial FTX claim sale example.

What to Check Before Signing

Ask which documents will be filed publicly, including attachments.
Review which names, addresses and signatures will be withheld or redacted.
Distinguish the claim amount and transferred share from the negotiated purchase price.
Read the confidentiality clause and its exceptions. An NDA does not determine what is already in a public record.

A claim number or customer code can remain visible even when a seller's name is hidden. Do not treat a redacted name as a guarantee that nobody can connect the filing with information from another source.

Tax and Compliance Are Separate Questions

Docket visibility does not determine tax reporting obligations or whether sanctions, KYC or other compliance rules apply to a transaction. A redacted notice does not erase those obligations. Our FTX claim sale tax guide explains separate reporting questions.

Check the Buyer Before You Share Documents

Verify the counterparty and the payment terms before you share identity documents or other sensitive material. A buyer never needs your wallet seed phrase. See how to check an FTX claim buyer.

FAQ

Does my name appear on the public FTX bankruptcy docket when I sell my claim?

The seller's name is withheld or redacted in the three notices reviewed here. This does not establish a rule for every transfer. Review the proposed public filing and its attachments before assuming which details will be visible.

Can a family member find my FTX claim sale by searching my name?

The reviewed notices do not display the seller's name, but claim identifiers remain visible. This review cannot rule out identification by combining a filing with information from another source.

Will tax authorities in my country see that I sold an FTX claim?

This document review cannot determine that. Public docket visibility and tax reporting are separate questions; a redacted notice does not remove applicable reporting obligations.

What information about my claim is publicly visible on the FTX docket?

In the three reviewed notices, the buyer and transferred share are visible, while seller names and addresses are withheld or redacted. The reviewed PDFs do not state a numerical purchase price. These findings apply only to those documents.

Does Kroll share my information with anyone?

FTX's guidelines say Kroll requests an unredacted notice to validate a transfer when the public filing is redacted. This review does not establish all circumstances in which information may be disclosed or shared.

What if my country has sanctions and someone screens the docket?

A redacted seller name does not decide whether sanctions, KYC or other compliance rules apply to the parties or payment route. Public visibility is a separate issue from transaction eligibility.
