Sam Bankman-Fried Denies Allegations of Wrongdoing in Bankruptcy Proceedings

Sam Bankman-Fried Denies Allegations of Wrongdoing in Bankruptcy Proceedings

Ex-CEO of collapsed crypto exchange Sam Bankman-Fried breaks his silence and publishes a “pre-mortem overview” about FTX.

On Jan 12, Sam Bankman-Fried posted on Substack highlighting the company’s insolvency and the factors that caused it. 

In his post, he differentiated the companies under the FTX umbrella, FTX International and FTX US.

He claimed that FTX US has always been solvent and is able to return all customers’ funds. 

“FTX International has many billions of dollars of assets, and I am dedicating nearly all of my personal assets to customers,” said Bankman-Fried.

According to him, the insolvency was a result series of events, including the growth of Alameda's balance sheet to $100 billion of Net Asset Value and $8 billion of net borrowing, failure to sufficiently hedge its market exposure, and a targeted crash precipitated by the CEO of Binance.

However, he also strongly rejected the allegations against him in the bankruptcy proceedings.

“I didn’t steal funds, and I certainly didn’t stash billions away.  Nearly all of my assets were and still are utilizable to backstop FTX customers.  I have, for instance, offered to contribute nearly all of my personal shares in Robinhood to customers or 100%, if the Chapter 11 team would honor my D&O legal expense indemnification,” he stated.

According to the written peace, the former CEO of FTX, Sam Bankman-Fried, admitted that he was slow to respond to public misperceptions and material misstatements regarding the insolvency of FTX International. In a statement, Bankman-Fried explained that it took him some time to piece together what information he could.
