After FTX imploded earlier this week, the cryptocurrency company’s links to top Democrats, the World Economic Forum (WEF), the Ukraine government, and a senior adviser to President Joe Biden have emerged.
As Slay News reported, FTX collapsed overnight after it was discovered that billions of dollars in clients’ money had vanished.
However, the company, and its co-founder and CEO Sam Bankman-Fried, had some staggering connections to powerful entities and individuals around the world.
FTX made waves with early endorsements by NFL legend Tom Brady, supermodel Gisele Bundchen, and NBA superstar Stephen Curry. FTX spent big money on a Super Bowl commercial featuring “Seinfeld” creator Larry David. “In 2021, FTX inked a reported $135 million, 19-year deal with the NBA’s Miami Heat to rename the American Airlines Arena as FTX Arena,” CNN reported.
“Major League Baseball struck a five-year deal in 2021 to name FTX as its official cryptocurrency exchange, a partnership that includes putting FTX patches on umpires’ uniforms.”
Then the FTX collapse happened. Within the span of a few days, FTX’s Bankman-Fried – known in the industry as “SBF” – lost nearly all of his $16 billion fortune in what Bloomberg called “one of history’s greatest-ever destructions of wealth.” On Friday, the Bahamas-based FTX was forced to file for bankruptcy after $473 million of its funds were stolen in a hack of the cryptocurrency exchange. Customers rushed to withdraw their funds, but it was too late.
Reuters reported that between $1 billion and $2 billion in customer funds vanished from the FTX cryptocurrency exchange. outlet also claimed that FTX secretly funneled $10 billion of customer funds into his trading company – Alameda Research. The Daily Mail claimed that SBF’s alleged girlfriend – Caroline Ellison – ran the sister trading company.
The New York Times noted, “Despite raising $2 billion, he remained the majority owner of the company. No investors joined FTX’s board of directors, which was made up of Mr. Bankman-Fried, an FTX employee and a lawyer.”
Before his cryptocurrency exchange collapsed, Bankman-Fried was a major financier of the Democratic Party. MarketWatch reported, “SBF contributed more than $5 million to Joe Biden and groups supporting him during his 2020 presidential campaign. He said he was motivated by Biden’s ‘generic stability and decision-making process.’”
