Bankrupt crypto exchange FTX has filed a lawsuit against cross-chain protocol LayerZero Labs, seeking to recover $21 million in funds that were allegedly illegally withdrawn prior to FTX’s shutdown in November.

The case traces back to transactions made from January to May 2022 between Alameda Ventures — the venture capital arm of Alameda Research, FTX’s sister company — and LayerZero.
