SBF was one of the biggest political donors to the party in govt. He seems to have done all the shady stuff with Alameda (and said it was arms-length). And whilst Alameda's CEO said multiple things that would have got you in trouble with regulated products (saying they had $10bn in secret assets, making a public offer to buy FTT to manipulate the price)...this is crypto.
I will make an exception to this: if they do not manage to make everyone whole or if there is public outrage that overwhelms his purchased politicians then it is over and multiple people will do time.

- skippyboxedhero 4y agoRight, but if the choice is between SBF paying $5bn or going to jail for 30 years...then what? The facts aren't clear, but SBF has money outside FTX. Even if the loss was manageable, I suspect that Binance never intended to do any deal. They had absolutely no incentive to do so.
