    Different sources claim, that $300 mio to up to $1 bio of customer assets are gone,
    as FTX got supposedly hacked over friday night.

    The airplane, which SBF used to charter for his trips to the US, is said to have left Bahamas heading towards Argentina...

    Who is the hacker?

    Insider? Outsider?

    3. Get "hacked". >> profit

    ~6 months ago i saw a short episode in some video about the founder being a billionaire, crypto exchange, praising him etc. Thought to myself, -
    ,,Prob will end up running away to some jungle nation"

    About a year ago I debated someone here and he brought up SBF as an expert because he was a billionaire and I was not. I knew back then the fucker was not even close to be a billionaire nor a financial expert.

    Back door expert, maybe. Let's see how good he is at hiding.

    ""Born and raised to an upper-middle-class Jewish family in California, he is the son of Barbara Fried and Joseph Bankman, both professors at Stanford Law School. His aunt Linda P. Fried is the current dean of Columbia University Mailman School of Public Health.""

    His parents teach ethics...

    Looks like a fake story. Why would he be headed to Argentina? Seems like they have an extradition treaty with the US?

    if he was headed to Morocco or Indonesia...

    Nothing to worry about. Closing the barn door usually fixes everything.;)

    This is most likely. SBF is smart enough to know that it's easy to blame a hack when you steal all the funds for yourself. Wipe your hands clean. Guy was a charlatan from the start but there's so many suckers nowadays that it's a crime to be honest and not take their money.

    -April 25th, 2019 Biden announces presidential run

    -13 days later, Sam Bankman-Freid (SBF) launches FTX crypto exchange

    -FTX becomes an overnight success

    -SBF becomes second largest Democrat donor.

    -FTX implodes on election day and customers lose billions

    Hmmmm....
