The United States Department of Treasury and Internal Revenue Service (IRS) have filed 45 claims worth $44 billion against bankrupt cryptocurrency exchange FTX and its subsidiaries.

In what appears to be a tax bill for FTX's sister company Alameda Research LLC that circulated online on May 10, the IRS assessed the firm $20.4 billion due in partnership taxes and payroll taxes. The assessment appears to match the IRS claim found on the website of Kroll’s Restructuring Administration practice, FTX's claims agent.
