The convicted FTX founder told Fox Business he did nothing criminal while serving a 25-year sentence tied to the cryptocurrency exchange’s collapse.
Sam Bankman-Fried is publicly maintaining that he committed no crime in the collapse of FTX, saying in an exclusive prison interview with Fox Business that he “didn’t steal user funds.” The convicted FTX founder made the claim while serving a 25-year sentence tied to the failure of the cryptocurrency exchange. His remarks amount to a direct denial of criminal wrongdoing even after his conviction and sentencing.
