FTX General Counsel Testifies in Court
During the court proceedings of United States v Sam Bankman-Fried, FTX general counsel Can Sun took the stand as a witness. This came after financial investigations and evidence suggested possible criminal activities at Alameda Research, Bankman-Fried’s crypto exchange and trading firm.
The testimony of an expert from Notre Dame Alumni and an FBI analyst shed more light on the situation at FTX. Bank statements revealed transactions from Alameda to personal accounts and super PACs, which were likely funded using customer crypto from FTX.
Furthermore, Twitter direct messages (DMs) from Bankman-Fried were presented as trial exhibits, showing his use of profanity-laden remarks directed at regulators and competitors shortly after FTX declared bankruptcy.
