Sam Bankman-Fried’s criminal fraud trial set to launch

The criminal trial of Sam Bankman-Fried, the former CEO and founder of FTX, commenced on Tuesday, marking a pivotal moment that will determine his future as he confronts seven federal charges related to fraud and conspiracy in connection with the collapse of his cryptocurrency empire.

FTX, once the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency exchange with an estimated valuation of $32 billion, took a dramatic turn when it filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in November of the previous year.

This decision came after a wave of withdrawals triggered by reports that the exchange had merged assets with Alameda Research, a sister hedge fund.

The collapse had devastating consequences for customers, resulting in significant losses, and led to Bankman-Fried stepping down as CEO, Fox Business reported.
