A rundown of major FTX events since Binance pulled out of its proposed buyout deal, leading to Bankman-Fried’s exchange going bankrupt

“Right now three of them, Sam, Gary, and Nishad are under supervision in the Bahamas. Which means it will be hard for them to leave,” a source familiar with the matter told Cointelegraph. The source said they also understand that the three, as well as Alameda Research CEO Caroline Ellison, are looking for ways to flee to Dubai, which doesn’t have any extradition treaty. The source has also revealed that Ellison is currently in Hong Kong, “so she might be able to get to Dubai.”

FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried has denied speculation that he’s fled to Argentina as the saga surrounding his collapsed cryptocurrency exchange continued to unfold in near-real time on Twitter. 

Sam Bankman-Fried built a "backdoor" to his FTX exchange in an effort to change financial records and move funds without alerting others, according to a report by Reuters citing two people with knowledge of the matter.

Musk douted if Sam Bankman-Fried really had $3 billion liquid to invest in Twitter.

Former FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried’s legal woes could go from bad to worse. After his crypto empire filed for bankruptcy protection, Bankman-Fried could face criminal charges — with his own tweets supplementing the evidence — legal experts say. 

John Ray III is now in charge of the debt-ridden exchange as its new CEO.

In one of his first public statements since rumors and concerns about FTX’s insolvency flooded the crypto market, CEO Sam Bankman-Fried, or SBF, has said: “I’m sorry.”

Employees working for the U.S. arm of FTX's cryptocurrency exchange business are trying to sell company assets, in some cases without CEO Sam Bankman-Fried's “participation,” according to Bloomberg News, which cited two people familiar with the matter.

Du Jun, Huobi's co-founder, tweeted: "Support bickering. Only by exposing and supervising each other, can the assets of centralized institutions be more transparent, the interests of retail investors be relatively protected and the industry develop more healthily. This war between Zhao Changpeng and SBF will be very beneficial to the development of the entire crypto industry if centralized institutions can introduce 100% reserve or other measures to promote asset transparency. Government regulators would also like to see everyone form self-discipline, rather than a mess where investors' interests are not properly protected and finally the regulatory hammer falls, and everyone feels bad."
