Sam Bankman-Fried

Sam Bankman-Fried, un tempo figura cardine nel settore Criptovaluta , è stato condannato nel novembre 2023 per frode e cospirazione per aver rubato miliardi di dollari di denaro appartenenti ai clienti del suo exchange Cripto FTX, convogliando il denaro ad Alameda Research, il suo hedge fund. FTX era stato ONE dei più grandi exchange Criptovaluta prima della sua scomparsa, un attore importante nel trading di derivati, inclusi i future perpetui. La rovina dell'azienda è stata stimolata da un Scoop CoinDesk a novembre 2022, mostrando che il bilancio di Alameda era misteriosamente pieno del token FTT emesso da FTX, mettendo in discussione sia la stabilità finanziaria di Alameda che di FTX. La società con sede alle Bahamas ha presentato istanza di fallimento nove giorni dopo la storia. Prima della sua caduta, SBF (come è comunemente noto l'ex miliardario) era stato una figura di spicco nel Cripto, spingendo per la regolamentazione del settore negli Stati Uniti. Era un importante donatore politicoe il volto pubblico dell'altruismo efficace, un movimento orientato a massimizzare la quantità di bene fatto dalla filantropia. SBF eraarrestatonel dicembre 2022, e il suola cauzione è stata revocata a causa della presunta manomissione di un testimone. Il suo prova è iniziato nell'ottobre 2023 ed è stato condannato il 2 novembre 2023, un anno esatto dopo la storia CoinDesk che ha causato il crollo del suo impero Cripto .
