Brendan Pedersen / @brendanpedersen : “Regulators are also looking into the platform's relationship with FTX com's American counterpart FTX US and Bankman-Fried's trading house Alameda Research. The SEC's inquiry began months ago as a probe into FTX US and its crypto-lending activities” https://www.bloomberg.com/... @bitfinexed : Horses, barn door, something something. https://twitter.com/... Adam Cochran / @adamscochran : Lot of dumb takes here saying but FTX US is fine. Yeah its fine because it was a distinct entity required to have money transmission licenses. But it's lending practice FTX Earn would have still lent to Alameda, which means this could have been found. @hsakatrades : No wonder FTX/Alameda were instantly replying to anything FTX US related during their radio silence https://twitter.com/... Lydia Beyoud / @ellebeyoud : Scoop: The SEC, CFTC are investigating FTX over how the exchange is handling customer funds, & how interconnected the offshore exchange is with FTX US and Alameda Research.
