THROWBACK: Exactly 2 Years Ago Today, SBF Was Sentenced to 25 Years in Prison
THROWBACK: Exactly 2 Years Ago Today, SBF Was Sentenced to 25 Years in Prison
The biggest fraud in crypto history.
$8 BILLION in customer funds stolen.
Here's the FULL story of how FTX rose to the top and collapsed in just 10 days.
A thread every crypto investor MUST read 🧵👇
1️⃣ THE RISE OF SBF
2019: Sam Bankman-Fried, a former Jane Street trader, launched FTX with co-founder Gary Wang
2021:#FTX hit $1B in revenue. SBF's net worth reached $26B. Forbes named him the richest person under 30
FTX became the 3rd largest crypto exchange globally with 1M+ users
2️⃣ THE FTX EMPIRE AT ITS PEAK:
→ Super Bowl ads featuring Larry David
→ Endorsement deals with Tom Brady, Steph Curry, Shaq
→ $135M naming rights deal for Miami Heat's arena
→ $32B valuation
→ Backed by Sequoia, SoftBank, BlackRock, Temasek, Ontario Teachers' Pension
SBF was everywhere. Magazine covers. Congressional hearings. Charity galas.
3️⃣ THE DARK SIDE: What Was Really Happening
Behind the scenes, #SBF was secretly funneling FTX customer deposits to Alameda Research, his private trading firm.
Alameda had a hidden backdoor in FTX's code that exempted it from standard risk checks.
This gave Alameda virtually unlimited access to customer funds for risky bets, real estate, and political donations.
4️⃣ THE COLLAPSE: 10 Days That Shook Crypto
Nov 2, 2022: CoinDesk leaks Alameda's balance sheet showing most assets were in FTT, a token FTX created themselves
Nov 6: Binance CEO CZ announces he's selling all $580M of FTT holdings. This triggers mass panic.
Nov 7: $4B+ in withdrawals hit FTX in 24 hours
Nov 8: FTX halts all withdrawals. Customers locked out.
5️⃣ Collapse Continued
Nov 8: Binance signs a non-binding LOI to acquire FTX
Nov 9: Binance walks away after just hours of due diligence. The books were that bad.
Nov 10: Bahamian regulators freeze FTX assets
Nov 11: FTX files for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. SBF resigns. John J. Ray III (who handled Enron's bankruptcy) takes over.
Ray said FTX had the WORST financial controls he'd seen in 40 years of restructuring.
6️⃣ THE FALLOUT:
→ $8B+ hole in customer accounts
→ BTC crashed below $16,000
→ Sequoia wrote down $210M to $0
→ Genesis suspended withdrawals, later filed bankruptcy
→ Crypto.com's CRO token lost ~$1B in value
→ Contagion spread across the entire industry
One man's fraud triggered a full-blown crypto winter.
7️⃣ THE ARREST & TRIAL:
Dec 12, 2022: SBF arrested in the Bahamas, extradited to US
Charged with 7 counts including wire fraud, securities fraud, and money laundering
His inner circle flipped on him. Caroline Ellison, Gary Wang, and Nishad Singh all pleaded guilty and testified against SBF.
Nov 2, 2023: Found GUILTY on all 7 counts. Jury deliberated less than 5 hours.
8️⃣ THE SENTENCE: March 28, 2024
Judge Lewis Kaplan sentenced SBF to 25 years in federal prison.
Prosecutors wanted 40-50 years. SBF's lawyers asked for just 5-6 years.
The judge said SBF committed perjury during his own testimony, showed zero remorse, and posed a future risk to society.
He was also ordered to forfeit $11.02 BILLION.
9️⃣ WHAT HAPPENED TO HIS CO-CONSPIRATORS:
Caroline Ellison (Alameda CEO): 2 years in prison
Gary Wang (FTX co-founder): Time served, no prison
Nishad Singh (FTX engineering head): Time served, no prison
Ryan Salame (FTX executive): 7.5 years
All cooperated with prosecutors. SBF refused and paid the heaviest price.
🔟 WHERE IS SBF NOW (March 2026):
Currently serving his sentence at FCI Terminal Island, California
His appeal was heard by the Second Circuit on Nov 4, 2025. Judges appeared skeptical of his arguments. Ruling still pending.
In Feb 2026, his mother filed a new appeal claiming FTX was never truly insolvent.
His parents are also reportedly exploring a presidential pardon from Trump. Prediction markets put pardon odds at roughly 9-11%.
SBF has pivoted politically, appearing on Tucker Carlson's show praising Trump's crypto stance.
1️⃣1️⃣ FTX Creditors: SILVER LINING FOR VICTIMS:
FTX's bankruptcy estate recovered nearly $16B.
98% of creditors are set to receive 119% of their allowed claims (based on Nov 2022 values).
But many argue this doesn't account for the massive crypto gains they missed. BTC was ~$16K when FTX collapsed. It's significantly higher now.
The "made whole" argument remains highly debated.
1️⃣2️⃣ KEY LESSONS FROM THE FTX COLLAPSE:
✅ Not your keys, not your crypto. Self-custody matters.
✅ No exchange is "too big to fail."
✅ Always verify Proof of Reserves.
✅ Celebrity endorsements mean NOTHING about platform safety.
✅ If yields look too good to be true, they are.
✅ Diversify across wallets and platforms. Never go all-in on one exchange.
SBF went from Forbes' richest under-30 to federal inmate 37244-510 in just 12 months.
The FTX collapse was crypto's darkest chapter but also its biggest lesson.
2 years later, the industry is stronger, more regulated, and more transparent.
But never forget what happened.
Stay safe. Stay sovereign. DYOR.
Not Financial Advice. ALWAYS DYOR.

📉 SBF Pardon Odds Slip Following Parents' Media Appearance
The market's outlook on a potential presidential pardon for former FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried is turning even more bearish. Following a recent CNN interview with SBF’s parents, Joseph Bankman and Barbara Fried, prediction markets have seen a notable downtick in "Yes" bets.
Key Market Movements:
Data from major US-based prediction platforms highlights a growing skepticism among bettors:
Polymarket: Likelihood dropped 2%, now sitting at 11%.
Kalshi: Likelihood dropped 1%, now sitting at 9%.
Why the Slide?
The sentiment shift follows the March 21 interview where SBF's parents discussed the legal challenges and the collapse of FTX. While the interview aimed to provide context, the "wisdom of the crowd" on betting platforms suggests it did little to improve the political or legal optics required for a pardon.
With SBF facing a lengthy prison sentence, these markets serve as a real-time barometer of public and political sentiment regarding one of the biggest collapses in crypto history.
What do you think? Are these odds still too high, or is the market overreacting to media cycles? Let us know below! 👇

"If SBF hadn't collapsed, how good would the crypto world be now" — this argument comes out every bear market and never holds up to scrutiny.
Recently, I've seen a few more articles like this. The market is bad, and some people start writing: If SBF hadn't collapsed back then, if FTX were still alive, if that investment in Anthropic still existed... Then they start to express their feelings, saying that the crypto world missed a "historic figure."
Every time I see this kind of narrative, I can't help but want to respond seriously. It's not because SBF as a person is particularly worth discussing, but because this way of thinking itself exposes some deep-rooted problems in the cryptocurrency industry.
First layer: Where did this money come from? Has anyone seriously calculated it?

SBF SCANDAL BACK IN SPOTLIGHT — $100K POLITICAL DRAMA EXPLODES
$BTC
The ghost of Sam Bankman-Fried is back… and it’s shaking up politics again 👀
A pro-tech group, Think Big PAC, is targeting NY candidate Alex Bores with a bold claim:
👉 He received $100,000+ support from SBF’s political network
📬 Viral mailers are hitting voters hard:
“Bankman-Fried’s buddies are backing Bores”
💥 Why this is blowing up:
SBF = face of the FTX collapse
Over 1/3 of U.S. Congress once received money linked to his network
Now that past is becoming a political weapon
⚔️ Meanwhile…
Bores (who supports AI regulation) is facing pressure from tech-aligned groups trying to stop him
📊 Big picture:
Crypto money + politics = still a powerful (and controversial) mix
👉 Is this fair politics… or dirty strategy?

5 billion to 30 billion: How the madman SBF hit the most valuable company of the AI era?
Anthropic may have become the most important AI company on this planet today.
Its Claude large model has been deployed into the Pentagon, U.S. intelligence systems, and national laboratories for intelligence analysis and target selection, even participating in real-world military decision support. On the commercial side, this company took less than three years to grow its annual revenue from 0 to 14 billion dollars. In February 2026, Anthropic completed a 30 billion dollar Series G financing, with a post-money valuation exceeding 380 billion dollars, with tech giants like Amazon, Google, NVIDIA, and Microsoft almost all participating.

There will no longer be messages for #FTX , similar institutions continue to reinterpret new stories!!
FTX has announced plans to distribute $2.2 billion to creditors on March 31, 2026. The recovery plan includes a 120% compensation for facilitating claims. After this distribution, total payments are expected to reach approximately $10 billion.
Background:
Founder Sam Bankman-Fried (#SBFFTX ) simultaneously controlled the exchange FTX and the hedge fund Alameda Research. Although both appear independent, there are serious conflicts of interest. #FTX交易所 reserved a 'backdoor' in the code that allowed Alameda to misuse user deposits without limit. SBF used approximately $8 billion to $10 billion of customer funds to cover investment losses, purchase luxury homes, make political donations, and engage in high-risk venture capital, leading to FTX being effectively insolvent.
Trigger:
In November 2022, the media exposed that #Alameda 's balance sheet was overly reliant on illiquid self-issued token FTT. Subsequently, competitor Binance announced it would liquidate FTT, triggering market panic. Users crazily withdrew $6 billion within 72 hours, leading to an instantaneous liquidity crisis for FTX, which filed for bankruptcy on November 11.
Consequences:
Legal sanctions: #SBF was convicted of 7 felonies in 2023 and sentenced to 25 years in prison in March 2024, currently under appeal. Several executives received lighter sentences for cooperating with the investigation. User losses: over a million creditors were affected, with losses estimated to reach tens of billions of dollars. The liquidation team has recovered some assets and is gradually advancing compensation, but the process is lengthy. Industry impact: the incident severely damaged trust in the industry, prompting significant tightening of global regulations, with many related companies going bankrupt. It marks the shift of the crypto industry from a 'wild growth' phase to a highly regulated era, also warning of the enormous risks of centralized custody $SOL #FTX债权人赔付 .

#SBF was right on every bet & still lost everything.
Let's look at their November 2022 portfolio:
- Anthropic: $500M invested in 2021 (8% stake) → now worth $30B
- #Solana
:: 58M tokens → now worth $5.3B
- Robinhood: 7.6% stake → now worth $5.7B
- SpaceX via K5 Global: $700M → now worth $3B
- Sui: $100M → now worth $1.2B
- Genesis Digital Assets: $1.15B → now worth $3.5B
Anthropic alone, bought for $500M when AI was still niche, is now a $30B stake (60x, not a joke).
today, if held, the investment could've become $50B+
