The United States Secret Service is one of Bittrex's largest clients, and its bankruptcy may still be profitable to this day

ChainCatcher news, although Bittrex filed for bankruptcy protection in May this year, it may still be profitable as a large number of customers have not requested refunds.

Bittrex's lawyer stated in a Delaware court on Wednesday that with the deadline for filing claims having passed, fewer than 36,000 customers have withdrawn approximately $143 million worth of cryptocurrency. In May, after Bittrex's U.S. and Malta subsidiaries filed for bankruptcy, 1.6 million customers received emails requesting them to withdraw their funds, but only a small portion of those actually withdrew.

Additionally, the U.S. Secret Service is a major client of the exchange, holding an account with $6.2 million. Bittrex has worked with the agency to assist them in successfully withdrawing their funds.
