UPDATE: Dec. 13,Women Who Have Tasted Swapping [Uncut] 2022, 12:52 p.m. CET Sam Bankman-Fried has been charged with securities fraud. From the SEC's filing: The complaint alleges that (...) Bankman-Fried orchestrated a years-long fraud to conceal from FTX’s investors (1) the undisclosed diversion of FTX customers’ funds to Alameda Research LLC, his privately-held crypto hedge fund; (2) the undisclosed special treatment afforded to Alameda on the FTX platform, including providing Alameda with a virtually unlimited “line of credit” funded by the platform’s customers and exempting Alameda from certain key FTX risk mitigation measures; and (3) undisclosed risk stemming from FTX’s exposure to Alameda’s significant holdings of overvalued, illiquid assets such as FTX-affiliated tokens.The complaint further alleges that Bankman-Fried used commingled FTX customers’ funds at Alameda to make undisclosed venture investments, lavish real estate purchases, and large political donations.

FTX founder and former CEO Sam Bankman-Fried, also known as SBF, has been arrested by Bahamian authorities, after the U.S. government filed unspecified criminal charges against him. U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York Damian Williams confirmed the former cryptocurrency billionaire's arrest via Twitter.

"Earlier this evening, Bahamian authorities arrested Samuel Bankman-Fried at the request of the U.S. Government, based on a sealed indictment filed by the SDNY," Williams said. "We expect to move to unseal the indictment in the morning and will have more to say at that time."

FTX was a cryptocurrency exchange that spectacularly collapsed earlier this year, filing for bankruptcy in November as Bankman-Fried stepped down from his role as CEO.

Before its dramatic implosion, FTX had been the fourth-largest cryptocurrency exchange in the world. Then the company secretly lent $10 billion worth of its customers' assets to Bankman-Fried's trading firm Alameda Research, using it to bet on other cryptocurrencies without said customers' authorisation.

Predictably, this didn't work out. At least $1 billion worth of customers' cryptocurrency apparently just disappeared, while hackers reportedly took off with almost $500 million more.

The FTX scandal was dramatic enough that Amazon has even ordered an eight-episode limited series on it. Now the show may have its finale.
