While many crypto fraudsters were able to slip through the cracks in the past, the same does not hold for FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF).
DOJ also plans to investigate whether SBF unlawfully transferred FTX funds to Alameda Research.
Given SBF’s strong connections to US politics, the fraudster has not yet been charged with any crimes and continues to participate in Twitter discussions from undisclosed locations.
On Dec. 9, SBF accused Binance CEO Changpeng ‘CZ’ Zhao of lying and backing out last minute from a deal that could save FTX.
Taylor was in discussion with FTX for a sponsorship deal, which would have made her one of the faces representing the failed crypto exchanges.
While the musician initially refrained from signing the deal as it was expensive, FTX’s bankruptcy shut down the discussion permanently.
