The criminal fraud trial of disgraced FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried and the subsequent guilty verdict on Friday, November 3, has drawn the attention of many — from crypto bulls to skeptics and even U.S. regulators — raising questions about the legitimacy of the greater cryptocurrency market. The Wolf Of All Streets Podcast Host Scott Melker does not believe the FTX fallout has any lasting impact, stating plainly: “This was a case of fraud that has literally nothing to do with crypto.” Melker specifies that crypto was just the vehicle to perpetuate SBF’s Ponzi scheme and that on a global scale, this case is just “an American phenomenon.” Cahill Gordon & […]

The FTX trial against Sam Bankman-Fried is beginning to wrap up as the jury deliberations are underway. The prosecution has finished their cross-examination of SBF, to which some courtroom attendants have reported that it is looking incredibly tough for the defense. Zeke Faux, Bloomberg Investigative Reporter and Number Go Up Author, joins Yahoo Finance to share his observations on the trial, describing the prosecution as “basically going for almost bonus points here, where they’re trying to argue that even if you only listen to the words of Sam Bankman-Fried, that itself is enough to convict.” For more expert insight and the latest market action, click here to watch this full […]

Sam Bankman-Fried, former founder of crypto exchange FTX (FTT-USD), is set to testify in his criminal trial in front of the judge, without a jury present. This arrangement is intended to ensure that all parts of the witness testimony are admissible, while also making it easier for appellate courts to understand the judge’s reasons for striking certain testimony later on, explains Sam Enzer, a partner at law firm Cahill Gordon & Reindel LLP. A key focus of Bankman-Fried’s testimony will be the role of lawyers in his actions. Prosecutors allege that Bankman-Fried intentionally instructed employees to auto-delete messages in order to evade regulators. However, Bankman-Fried claims he received approval from […]

Ellison, who herself pled guilty to several counts of fraud, walked prosecutors through how SBF directed her to defraud billions of dollars from customers of the crypto exchange.
