Sam Bankman-Fried, the Founder of the collapsed cryptocurrency exchange FTX, was sentenced to 25 years in prison by Judge Lewis A. Kaplan on Thursday. Bankman-Fried was found guilty on multiple counts of wire fraud and conspiracy that led to the collapse of the crypto exchange, causing millions of losses to investors.
The legal tussle reached its climax with the recent sentencing, where prosecutors sought a staggering 40 to 50 years behind bars for the disgraced crypto king. Despite the harsh verdict, Bankman-Fried's defense team remains undeterred, vowing to appeal both the conviction and the sentencing.
