- spywaregorilla 4y agoThe money is not "dirty" in the typical definition of the word. "Dirty" money needs to be "laundered" so that you can appear to have a genuine justification of having it. That is, it's basically just a matter of whether it was declared as income to tax authorities. The FTX money was all above board from that perspective. Taking money back from parties that FTX paid seems very unlikely.

Irving Picard is something of a legend for his ability to “recover” stolen funds for Madoff victims: https://www.wsj.com/articles/the-amazing-madoff-clawback-1543620951 https://www.wsj.com/articles/the-amazing-madoff-clawback-154...
