The first day of FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried's criminal trial saw mentions of cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, Ethereum, Dogecoin, and Solana, but not FTX’s native token, FTT. Federal prosecutors accused Bankman-Fried of stealing billions of dollars and misusing funds for personal gain. He is charged with wire fraud conspiracy, wire fraud, conspiracy to commit money laundering, commodities fraud, securities fraud, and defrauding the United States and committing campaign finance violations. The collapse of FTX and its partner hedge fund Alameda Research in November 2022 was not a typical tale of crypto market volatility or investor risk.
