Сэм Банкмен-Фрид может выступить на суде по мошенничеству по делу о крахе FTX

Sam Bankman-Fried, the founder of now-bankrupt cryptocurrency exchange FTX, has announced that he will testify in his own defense at his ongoing fraud trial. Bankman-Fried is accused of stealing billions of dollars from customers and faces multiple charges. His decision to testify is considered risky, as it allows prosecutors to cross-examine him and challenge the testimonies of former colleagues who claim he directed them to commit crimes. Bankman-Fried has pleaded not guilty and his lawyers argue that his former colleagues tailored their testimony to implicate him in exchange for lenient sentences. Prosecutors allege that Bankman-Fried used the misappropriated funds to support his hedge fund, make speculative investments, and donate to political campaigns. The trial is expected to resume soon with Bankman-Fried taking the stand. If convicted, he could face a lengthy prison sentence.
