Turquia apreende bens pertencentes a Sam Bankman-Fried
- Officials in Turkey believe Sam Bankman-Fried mishandled users’ funds and manipulated the market.
- FTX’s collapse was a mixture of a leadership crisis and a run on the bank.
Autoridades na Turquia teriam apreendido ativos pertencentes ao ex-CEO da FTX, Sam Bankman-Fried, após o colapso da bolsa. A Bannkman-Fried está sujeita a várias investigações em diferentes países desde que a FTX declarou falência.
Ministério do Tesouro e Finanças da Turquia lançado uma declaração observando que havia aberto um inquérito sobre alegações de fraude contra Sam Bankman-Fried, de 30 anos. O governo está investigando a FTX, bem como outras entidades ligadas à bolsa, como instituições financeiras e empresas que fornecem serviços criptográficos.
The Financial Crimes Investigation Board (MASAK), a division of the Ministry of Treasury and Finance, is in charge of both investigations, which were initiated in accordance with the nation’s anti-money laundering regulations.
MASAK said it concluded that FTX mishandled user funds, embezzled money from clients through dubious business dealings, and manipulated supply and demand by allowing users to trade listed cryptocurrencies that were not backed by real crypto holdings. In light of these discoveries, MASAK said it confiscated the assets of Bankman-Fried and some of his associates after establishing a reasonable “criminal suspicion” over the aforementioned facts.
FTX’s attorneys recently explicado how the vast empire built by Sam Bankman-Fried was brought to its knees in a matter of days during a court hearing on Tuesday. They painted a picture of a corporation rife with instability and poor management. James Bromley, an attorney for FTX, said the exchange’s collapse was “one of the most abrupt and difficult collapses in the history of corporate America.”
At its peak, FTX was one of the most well-known crypto exchanges worldwide, and just a few weeks ago, everything seemed fine. But the vast company was reduced to dust in a matter of hours and filed for bankruptcy on November 11. The crypto exchange is currently exploring how to sell off assets, make payments to clients, and satisfy creditors. FTX also ushered in a new team to stabilize the firm, but it appears the damage is beyond repair.
Bromley on Tuesday confirmed the fears of millions of customers, noting that his team discovered that “a substantial amount of assets have either been stolen or are missing.” It appears that users’ funds are currently nowhere to be found.
Muitos usuários de criptografia rotularam o FTX como a maior traição da história. Especialistas jurídicos afirmam que a FTX nunca contratou profissionais para auditar seus registros financeiros, o que significa que os investidores provavelmente nunca receberam informações precisas.
