I don't think they will be able to turn around anything because of all the money people lost. The trust is gone and I doubt it will ever become a large player in the field again.

This situation sounds quite comical to me. How will they win back investors trust? Is it even possible to win back investors trust after all that has transpired within the past few months? Good luck to Mr. Ray for trying to restart FTX and bring it back to life.
