Sam Bankman-Fried, founder and former CEO of now-defunct crypto-lending firm FTX, denied that he was in a secret chat group called "Wirefraud," hours before his arrest in the Bahamas on Monday.

Bankman-Fried responded to a tweet accusing him of being in the chat group saying: "If this is true then I wasn't a member of that inner circle. (I'm quite sure it's just false; I have never heard of such a group.)"

The apparent chat group, based on encrypted messaging platform Signal, included members of FTX's inner circle, the Australian Financial Review reported first.

Alongside Bankman-Fried, FTX's co-founder Gary Wang, engineer Nishad Singh, and former CEO of Alameda Research Caroline Ellison were in the group to share information that they hoped would remain hidden, according to AFR.

I thought the whole point of Signal was that it’s encrypted.

I highly doubt you would pick a Bahamian prison to freedom in America.
Who put all of their money in a singular investment?
That’s extremely stupid, and stupid people typically don’t have much money.
After MC Hammer and Mike Tyson going bankrupt, even ghetto retards know to use an educated investor instead of cousin Ray Ray.

The reports about the prison he is in, would make it easy for him to have an ‘accident’.

I don’t know about you, but I don’t want to crap in a bucket or get bit by a diseased rat.

This dude is dead. He has zero common sense, and showed he can’t keep his mouth shut.

I am not surprised by this revelation. Thanks for posting!!

Fun to watch leftist elites tear each other apart like SBF has his ex, Caroline.

He won’t be singing “Sweet Caroline” after the trial.

I’ve been camping, and it sucks.
The woods also typically aren’t filled with violent blacks.

Our woods are filled with violent black bears.

They have a gang called The Honeyeaters.

Mean as can be.
