Sun said that Debt DAO will do a 1:1 debt buyback for FUD holders after the airdrop. “This gives them [FTX creditors] greater control over their assets and opens up new opportunities for investment.”

Tron TRX/USD founder Sun said the FUD token will provide FTX creditors with a “new level of liquidity” and enable them to trade their FTX debt on the open market.

“The listing of FUD Token on reputable exchanges like HuobiGlobal is a clear indication that the crypto industry is moving in a positive direction. The demand for FUD Token is a sign of confidence in the market and a vote of support for a positive attitude towards crypto," Sun said.

Debt DAO tweeted that the initial supply of FUD tokens will be 20 million for 20% of the confirmed debt amount, with a total value of $1 each.

Once FTX confirms the total debt amount through official disclosure, additional FUD tokens will be issued in proportion and distributed to FUD holders through an airdrop. For example, if the confirmed amount of debt is $60 million, another 40 million FUD tokens will be released. 

Price Action: At the time of writing, TRX was trading at $0.06  down 0.46%, in the last 24 hours, according to Benzinga Pro.
