SBF set to deny alleged Chinese bribe to unlock $1B Alameda funds

A person familiar with the matter told Reuters that curly-haired former billionaire SBF will plead not guilty to bribe allegations.

SBF indicted for bribing China officials to unfreeze Alameda funds

Sam Bankman-Fried, formerly of FTX and Alameda Research, has been indicted for directing at least $40 million in bribes to Chinese officials.

FTX court filings reveal exec payouts weren’t too generous for Alameda Research co-CEO Ellison, and far less than co-CEO Sam Trabucco.

Sam Bankman-Fried relied on a number of trading desks beside Alameda Research to keep his empire functioning.

A superseding indictment has been filed against Sam Bankman-Fried additionally alleging bank fraud, securities fraud, and commodities fraud.
