  Over $1B in total: $100M last Aug, $550M in Jan, $250M in Feb and $250M in Apr. The timeline and amounts dovetail to the investing sentiment in Bitcoin mining. Didn't know Alameda was such a major force behind the crypto-mining boom https://www.bloomberg.com/...

  Scoop w/ the amazing @Yueqi_Yang : Alameda invested $1.15B in miner Genesis Digital Assets during the height of the crypto-mining boom right before the crypto winter sent miners into deep distress. That was Alameda's largest venture bet https://www.bloomberg.com/...

  SCOOP w/ @avabmorrison: US authorities are asking crypto investors and trading firms that worked closely with FTX to hand over information on the company and its key figures, including founder Sam Bankman-Fried. https://www.bloomberg.com/...

  SBF will eventually be charged, though it might take time. The fraud impacted too many people and too much money was stolen. Good scoop from @KenzieSigalos https://www.cnbc.com/...

  Wire fraud is what creates US jurisdiction: “Prosecutors and SEC cast a wide net to gather communications Regulator is also digging into crypto-giant's investor pitches” https://www.bloomberg.com/...

  SBF says he was “not deeply aware of” Alameda's finances Forbes says he sent them details of Alameda's holdings as recently as August https://www.forbes.com/... https://twitter.com/...

  Alameda had a non-liquidation account. They actually fat-fingered a $3B notional market order(which was converted into a limit order according to their rules). https://twitter.com/...

  Dude owned 90% of Alameda was frantically sending Forbes updates on his networth that included Alameda holdings - https://www.forbes.com/... there is 0 chance he didn't know FTX funds were going to Alameda. Zero. https://twitter.com/...

  This is HUGE: @FT reports that @SBF_FTX @FTX_Official's “hedge fund took big hit to prop up #FTX exchange” IN 2021 b/c bad risk/margin/volatility management; this is exactly what concerned us in the @CFTC application: https://www.ft.com/... @joshckoliver @kadhim

  “The incident, more than a year before FTX collapsed, shows how when one pillar of SBF's crypto conglomerate came under stress, he would shift the weight to another, treating the businesses portrayed publicly as separate as if they were one group.” https://www.ft.com/...

  Alameda lost $1b on a trade involving MobileCoin, the Signal crypto token?! Seemingly had to cover someone's position in the midst of a huge spike in its price. 👁️ https://www.ft.com/...

  In 2021, Sam Bankman-Fried's FTX exchange took a big hit on manipulative trading in an obscure token He moved the damage off FTX's books to his Alameda trading firm, another sign the 2 nominally separate cos were essentially one Scoop w/ @joshckoliver https://www.ft.com/...

  More evidence for @0xdoug's theory https://www.ft.com/...

• @knowledge_vital @knowledge_vital on x

  Before FTX blew up trying to support Alameda, the tables were turned - Alameda had to intervene last year to rescue FTX. Anyone who says the two entities weren't operated together is being dishonest. https://www.ft.com/...

  Hey, he didn't MEAN to do this... It just somehow “happened”! https://twitter.com/...

• @sruhle Stephanie Ruhle on x

  Took a big hit? It sounds more like Alemeda (his hedge fund) returned SOME of the $$ to FTX that had been taken w/o customer consent & used to bet on crypto. https://twitter.com/...

  FTX was a terrible prime broker. Sam Bankman-Fried's hedge fund took big hit to prop up FTX exchange https://www.ft.com/...
