Fallen crypto mogul Sam Bankman-Fried is shutting down Alameda Research, the trading house at the heart of his digital-asset empire, as he seeks last-ditch financing to save his troubled crypto exchange FTX.com. Until recently, Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF) had one of the largest fortunes in the digital industry world, with an estimated net worth exceeding $16 billion. Yet now the world can see the truth: SBF lies a lot. Like most mark-to-market fortunes that only exist on paper, wealth can evaporate during a liquidity crisis. Bloomberg reported that SBF has lost at least $15 billion in personal net worth this week. Rumors are already circulating that he has filed for bankruptcy protection.

Game over for FTX as CEO-founder quits and company files for bankruptcy

Citiraj:

FTX has filed for bankruptcy protection in the US after it was unable to meet a torrent of withdrawals, marking a stunning collapse for Sam Bankman-Fried’s crypto empire that was valued at $32 billion just months ago. The filing in a federal court in Delaware on Friday includes FTX’s US entity, Bankman-Fried’s proprietary trading group Alameda Research, and about 130 affiliated companies. The collapse of FTX comes after a whirlwind 10 days in which Bankman-Fried desperately sought billions of dollars to save his company after customers rushed to pull their assets out of the business following concerns surrounding its financial health and links between the exchange and Alameda, also founded by Bankman-Fried. Bankman-Fried also resigned as chief executive and will be replaced by John J Ray III, a restructuring specialist who oversaw the Enron and Nortel Networks bankruptcy cases.
