Sam Bankman-Fried, also known as SBF in the digital asset sector and the founder of the now-bankrupt crypto exchange FTX, cannot “out-fox” the government prosecutors as they will ruthlessly poke holes in the disgraced crypto entrepreneur’s testimony when he takes the stand in his own criminal trial, claims the founder of a global investment firm based in New York, Anthony Scaramucci. 

Praten met CNBC in een interview on “Last Call,” Scaramucci stated that the Department of Justice (DoJ) prosecutors will “point out all the contradictions” in the testimony provided by the FTX founder, and this will “add years to his sentence.” Interestingly, multiple industry players believe that addressing the jury and providing his testimony will worsen SBF’s case. 

“He’s gonna get skinned alive, there’s no way to escape. He thinks he’s going to out-fox the prosecutors but they’re very, very well experienced with this stuff,” Scaramucci noted.

Scaramucci, who served as the White House Director of Communications in 2017, added that there’s been a “whole revision of history” on the FTX founder. He noted that almost a year ago, SBF was described as a “congenial nerd who was going to give all his money away,” but his trial, which saw testimonies from former executives, confirmed that “there was malevolence.”

“He thought he was going to take that money and he was so smart that he would out-trade the market and put the money back and end up as a half-a-trillionaire but it never works like that,” said Scaramucci.

As reported earlier by Bitnation, Scaramucci believes that the former CEO of FTX “really hurt the crypto space” and also bracht veel politici in verlegenheid die tijd met hem doorbrachten, waaronder Gary Gensler, de voorzitter van de Amerikaanse Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). 

Het is van cruciaal belang op te merken dat SBF is ingesteld op in zijn eigen proces het standpunt innemen en zal door de aanklagers aan een kruisverhoor worden onderworpen. Zijn proces werd op 19 oktober opgeschort en zal op 26 oktober worden hervat.
