So he stole stuff in 2022 at a low point, and now his victims are going to be paid 30% the cost of what it would take to rebuy it? That's "repaid in full" in your mind? Losing 70% of their BTC?

FTX claims are being sold for 96 cents on the dollar, so there's high expectation that creditors will be paid in full.

You're not repaid in full unless all your assets are returned, which would be of significantly higher value now than when they were stolen.
