Drift Opens DFX Recovery Claims for Users Who Lost Over $290M

Recovery claims priced at roughly a cent per dollar of loss make clear how little of the shortfall the revenue-backed pool can absorb at the outset, turning the token into a long-dated claim on Drift's rebuilt business rather than a near-term make-whole. The design shifts the burden of recovery onto the exchange's own trading activity, so affected users now hold exposure to whether that volume materialises. Whether the revenue stream grows fast enough to lift redemptions meaningfully, and how DFX trades once claims are live, is the open question.
