Sam Bankman-Fried opened up in an interview about his mistakes with FTX and blamed his ex-girlfriend for his downfall.

Bankman-Freid, 30, is still in the Bahamas following his company's $32Bn loss, but openly spoke with Vox reporter Kelsey Piper through Twitter's direct message feature on Tuesday about his current circumstances with little remorse.

The FTX owner told Piper that his ex-girlfriend Caroline Ellison's company Alameda was responsible for gambling and losing his company's money - to which he was 'oblivious' until it was too late.

I think I found my Platonic Ideal of the Millennial generation. We have two Millennials born into privilege who on the outside regurgitated every moral platitude of our age while on the inside their souls were in the muck of almost every deadly sin, especially, pride and greed.

Bankman-Freid responded: 'And also thought Alameda had enough collateral to [reasonably] cover it.'

Collateral as in zero intrinsic worth ether coins???

I must be old when collateral actually meant something with actual value, for example, a house or stock in Apple.

He’s just like Soros! And Hilde-breath!

Even the chicoms are too conservative for this skunk.

This SBF, if he lives, is going to claim to be a woman to go to a women’s prison.

This guy’s ethics analysis makes me think he must be Bill Klinton’s love child. He’s certainly ugly enough.

Miss FTX is impossible to classify on the Hot-Crazy Matrix. Are imaginary number allowable? She is not even nerdy cute. And being a meth addict does not help too.

Caroline Ellison is the sole CEO of Alameda Research, which used FTX funds to cover its trading losses. Definitely not just some innocent 'girlfriend'.

This leftist punk, like Madoff, burned too many people in high places. I can’t believe those people won’t get there pound of flesh. The only reason that might not happen is if Politicians / deep state was in on the ponzi scheme / money laundering in which case Fried will be Epsteined before trial.

Neither of them ever learned anything about ethics, hygiene or grooming.
