SBF’s X Account Claims FTX Was Never Insolvent

A document circulated through Sam Bankman-Fried’s X account presents a startling counter-narrative to the established facts of FTX’s collapse, claiming the crypto exchange was never insolvent but merely experienced a temporary liquidity crisis. The 14-page defense document, echoing arguments from Bankman-Fried’s criminal trial, alleges that external lawyers prematurely forced bankruptcy while the company was on track to resolve its financial challenges. These assertions directly contradict the jury’s 2023 fraud conviction that found Bankman-Fried misappropriated $10 billion in customer funds.

Speaking at a Turning Point USA event, Carlson pointed to the enduring mystery of Bitcoin’s pseudonymous creator, Satoshi Nakamoto, and the untouched fortune of roughly one million BTC as primary evidence for his deep-seated distrust, framing the entire crypto project as a potential scam orchestrated by financial elites.

SBF Claims Political Targeting Over GOP Donations

Convicted FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried has ignited fresh controversy by claiming his 2022 arrest was politically motivated, alleging that his shift toward Republican donations prompted targeted action from the Biden administration just before critical crypto legislation. Despite his 25-year sentence for defrauding billions from customers, SBF and his family maintain he was wrongly prosecuted, while critics dismiss these assertions as a well-funded lobbying effort to rewrite the narrative of one of crypto’s largest collapses.
