Nansen CEO: If CZ had acquired FTX back then, he would now indirectly hold significant stakes in Anthropic and Cursor

Odaily Planet Daily News: Alex Svanevik, CEO of on-chain data analytics platform Nansen, stated on X platform that from a hindsight perspective, if Binance founder CZ had completed the acquisition of FTX back then, the potential asset structure would have changed significantly. He might now hold indirect exposure to approximately 8% of Anthropic's shares, about 5% of AI coding tool Cursor's shares, and some investment interests related to SpaceX.

It is reported that CZ disclosed his intention to acquire FTX in November 2022 but abandoned the plan after due diligence uncovered issues beyond his control. Subsequently, FTX filed for bankruptcy protection.
