FTX/Sam Bankman-Fried megathread

It's a shame he still hasn't gone to court for his foreign bribery and bank fraud charges. They're a few years for each charge but I wonder if the jury will just plead guilty because of this recent guilty verdict. I'm also wondering how his parents are going to fare in theirs since they've been accused of helping him build his empire and got rewarded for it. The whole family is basically shit out of luck at this point.
 
There's a reason we bullied berry-pickers and chicken-neck nellies for thousands of years. Smart, physically weak people are vindictive little sociopaths. Crimes like these and schemes the Great Reset are just Revenge of the Nerds on a global scale.

Not really sure what you’re getting at here, are you saying they’re sociopaths because they were bullied, and thus need to be bullied more?

I am with you here, saw some court pictures of this motherfucker yesterday and he had a look on his face that made me think he's expecting exactly that.
On another note, i wanted to show someone the hilarious court sketch of the jewy co-defendant, found some other pics of her while looking and i don't think the bitch took all of this court shit well:

Looks like she aged 10 years ever since the indictment. God, she's hideous, i can feel my credit score going bad just looking at these.

Look at their faces, they could be brother and sister. You'd think only ultra-orthodox Williamsburg kikes would be this inbred but nah, it's the whole eastcoast Synagogue of Satan.

maybe she knows how to cook and buys good cheese.

"Ohmigerd Jersh you were right! There's no cheese at this Walmart!"
 

I meant that barring appeals this is probably the end of SBF content on the Farms - it's had to document someone being a sped when the speds in prison after all.

The SEC coming down on Crypto like the hammer of God means he's probably fucked though.
Sounds like this guy could die in the slammer even on the low end.

Even if that doesn’t happen, with this conviction and NFTs going worthless, I think we can safely say the age of the crypto bro is over.
 
I predict a sentence in the 20-25 year range. Due to this being federal he won’t get a big chunk cut off due to good behavior and other shit, so he will probably serve 15 or so years in federal prison.

I’m not sure how his tune will change at sentencing but if it doesn’t the judge might come down harder. They don’t take kindly to convicted felons not accepting responsibility. Sam needs to get over “I fucked up, just a honest mistake” and admit he is a criminal that committed crimes. If he tries to stick to his good faith hood boy shit the judge might smack him down with 50 years. Be curious to see how obstinate he will be about his innocence after a few months stewing his limited options.
 
He's still the #2 highest donor to the DNC of all time. I've watched politically connected celebrities get long sentences in prison, then get some crazy back room deal where they either get let out for whatever reason or are allowed to go home everyday.

I feel somewhat bad for Caroline. From all reports she was quite brilliant but Sam himself commented she was incredibly insecure. He only put her in charge of Alameda because she would do whatever he wanted. She joined Alameda because she had a crush on him. They only dated for a relatively short period. They had broken up before he made her CEO and had been basically ignoring her. Him suddenly elevating her to Co-CEO was his way of keeping her hopes up and under thumb. It is inline with his sociopathic behavior, she made an ideal pawn that would do anything to please him. She definitely would not stand up to him or push back on his decisions.

She stuck around even after Sam Trabucco bailed to save his own ass, it’s crazy she didn’t do the same. She still stuck around to go down with SBF’s ship.

Another surprising thing I read is that she’s a devout Catholic. Not what I expected, def thought she’d be the strident atheist type. Of course there were the tumblr blogs where she had ramblings about women maintaining very traditional roles and thinking women should compete Chinese concubine style for dominate males.

It was sort of confusing how a woman with remarkable intelligence could be so foolish in other ways. Then I was reminded when I saw Twitter post of some of her recent photos at court and it was just 100’s of replies mocking her appearance unmercifully. 95% of the SM about Caroline has been about her appearance. If you look at Sam he’s an equally, or even more, unattractive male yet he had all the confidence in the world. His hideous unkempt hair, greasy appearance and sloppy clothes were just signs of being a quirky genius to be lauded.

You had me until the end. SBF's appearance is constantly ridiculed, especially since the courtroom sketches came out. Even the most faithful rendition of SBF's features would make the artist look high that day.

As for quirky genius, I’ve only seen journos try to paint him that way. Its not genius to just lie about what you're doing and exploit trust. Fraud is not a genius innovation, it's just cheating people.
