WTF Happened to FTX?!

Miss Findependent

We start at the very beginning. Who was Samuel Bankman-Fried, mainly known by his initials SBF? How did he build his crypto fortune? Did he always come from money?

In this week’s episode of The Miss Findependent Podcast, I get into all of this and more.

This isn’t some fluff piece. This is the full story… with updates from his employees, details about his political involvement, and some insight into what shaped him to be the man he is today.

SBF comes off as a big philanthropist, guided by his belief in altruism. Some say philanthropist. I say fraudster.

SBF single handedly loses his fortune of $17.2 Billion, declares a chapter 11 bankruptcy, and causes thousands of people to lose not only their hard earned money, but also their faith in crypto.

In case you haven’t heard of SBF - Sam Bankman-Fried is an entrepreneur and former founder/CEO of FTX, FTX.US, and Alameda Research, but if this story is the titanic, this is just the tip of the iceberg.
