Work with your manager and engagement partner to transition if you give notice. It is part of the industry and being gone for 150+ nights a year is going to create turnover.

Build the resume then bolt⚡️

If you have a good enough reason to leave, do it. Leadership has been around long enough that they expect turnover and work around it.

A good firm won't burn the bridge over this; people leave for better opportunities all the time. Be respectful to your team and leadership and make sure you give ample notice so you can close out things you own and hand it off to someone.

Hedge Withdrawals

Open a position on FTX and an opposing position on another exchange (perhaps Binance for the irony) for the same financial exposure. If the position on FTX profits, keep trading. As the position on FTX experiences losses, the opposing position on the other exchange profits. Keep it up until you’ve depleted the funds on account at FTX the close your opposing position. You’ve successfully withdrawn funds using a hedge. You’re welcome.
