How Many Years Will Sam Bankman-Fried Stay Behind Bars if Found Guilty?

Less than a day back, FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried was charged for bribing a Chinese official. In a new indictment, the U.S. Department of Justice alleged that he paid $40 million as a bribe. In fact, the indictment claimed that accounts belonging to Alameda Research were the target of a freezing order from Chinese police “in or around” November last year. Retrospectively, the bribe was paid to unfreeze the accounts. The latest development only adds to the piling charges against the FTX founder. According to Bloomberg News’ Annabelle Droulers, “He’s now facing 13 criminal counts and faces more than a century behind bars if convicted.” Sam Bankman-Fried already was facing more than a century behind bars if convicted of all the charges outlined against him. The addition of a charge that he bribed Chinese officials once again raises the stakes.

The impact of the Credit Suisse bank crisis on the crypto market

Cointelegraph analyst and writer Marcel Pechman explains how the Credit Suisse bank crisis will impact the crypto market. The show Macro Markets, hosted by Marcel Pechman, which airs every Friday at 12 pm ET on the Cointelegraph Markets & Research YouTube channel, explains complex concepts in layman’s terms and focuses on the cause and effect of traditional financial events on day-to-day crypto activity. In today’s episode, crypto analyst Pechman discusses how to analyze banks — importantly, how to avoid the erroneous market capitalization indicator, which had a $15.8-billion value for the defunct Silicon Valley Bank (SVB).

Of course, Pechman first explains the relationship between Banking valuation and crypto currencies, specifically Bitcoin’s (BTC) ethos. The video explores the 2018 denial of The Narrow Bank’s application, a bank that would
