About this scam
FTX was a cryptocurrency exchange founded by Sam Bankman-Fried that collapsed in November 2022 after revelations that it had secretly funnelled billions in customer deposits to its affiliated trading firm, Alameda Research. The exchange filed for bankruptcy with approximately $8 billion in customer funds missing. Bankman-Fried was convicted of seven counts of fraud and conspiracy in November 2023 and sentenced to 25 years in prison.
