Sam Bankman-Fried Trial: What Really Happened at FTX

EP.137 In this episode of the Girl In The Verse podcast, Melina sits down with crypto criminal defense lawyer, Carlo D’Angelo to discuss the ongoing trial of Sam Bankman-Fried, the former CEO of FTX, and Alameda Research, the hedge fund run by Caroline Ellison. Ellison has testified that Bankman-Fried was involved in many of the decisions and orders that led to the collapse of FTX and Alameda, and that she was acting at his direction. She has also made claims that Alameda used fake accounts, bribed Chinese officials, and used IDs she believed to belong to Thai prostitutes in an attempt to unfreeze its accounts in China. Melina and D’Angelo discuss the evidence that has been presented so far, the legal issues at stake, and what Ellison's testimony could mean for Bankman-Fried's case.
