SBF is in hot waters once again! The former FTX CEO is facing a new 13-count indictment from authorities in the United States.
FTX cryptocurrency exchange founder and former CEO Sam Bankman-Fried, or “SBF,” is facing a new 13-count indictment from authorities in the United States.includesIn section 105 of the filing, the complaint claims that SBF and other related parties “directed and caused the transfer of at least approximately $40 million in cryptocurrency intended for the benefit of one or more Chinese government officials.
According to the filing, Chinese law enforcement authorities froze certain Alameda accounts on “two of China’s largest crypto exchanges” in or around early 2021. The FTX founder was aware of the freeze and tried numerous methods to unfreeze the accounts, including attempting to transfer cryptocurrency to fraudulent accounts in an effort to circumvent China’s freeze orders.
“After months of failed attempts to unfreeze the accounts, Samuel Bankman-Fried discussed with others and ultimately agreed to and directed a multi-million-dollar bribe to seek to unfreeze the accounts,” the court filing notes. After the accounts were unfrozen at the direction of SBF, Alameda used unfrozen cryptocurrency to fund additional Alameda trading activity, the U.S. government found.
