Here's What Happened To Sam BankmanFried
Just one year ago, Sam BankmanFried was one of the most successful young adults in the world with a net worth north of $30 billion by the time he was just 30 years old. What was even more impressive about Sam was his noble ambitions. He wasn’t looking to buy mega yachts or mega mansions, he actually wanted to donate all of his money. In fact, according to Sam, the only reason he was looking to get rich was so that he could donate his money. But, this facade rapidly came crumbling down when it was revealed that FTX wasn’t as safe and secure as people originally believed. It turns out that FTX had actually been lending a lot of their deposits to their sister trading firm, Alameda Research, and a lot of the funds were actually held in an inhouse crypto called FTT token. By the time this news came out, it was already over for Sam BankmanFried as people rushed to withdraw their money from FTX. Before you knew it, this led to FTX going bankrupt and Sam being questioned for ignorance, negligence, and straightup fraud. This video explains what happened to Sam after FTX came crumbling down and what his punishment may be.
