🚨 How North Korea Infiltrated the Crypto Industry

An investigation has revealed that North Korean IT workers have infiltrated the crypto industry, posing as developers to secure remote jobs at over a dozen prominent blockchain companies. These undercover operatives were hired by firms including Injective, ZeroLend, Fantom, Sushi, Yearn Finance, and Cosmos Hub—many of which unknowingly employed workers from North Korea (DPRK), violating U.S. and U.N. sanctions.

North Korean IT workers used fake IDs and falsified documents to pass interviews and background checks. Many of these workers were hired for remote roles, often using anonymous methods, which made it easier for them to blend in. They successfully masked their origins, presenting real work histories and GitHub contributions.

Zaki Manian, a blockchain developer, revealed that more than 50% of incoming resumes in the crypto industry may come from DPRK workers. CoinDesk identified over a dozen companies that had unwittingly hired North Korean developers since 2018. Many of these companies, like Cosmos Hub, have publicly acknowledged the issue for the first time through this investigation.

Hiring North Korean workers is illegal under U.N. and U.S. sanctions, but many companies fell victim to elaborate identity fraud. Worse, CoinDesk found links between DPRK IT workers and hacking incidents. For example, Sushi, a decentralized finance (DeFi) protocol, lost $3 million in a 2021 hack linked to these workers.

These IT workers send their earnings back to Pyongyang to support the regime’s nuclear weapons program, with as much as $600 million annually funneled to the regime. The funds were traced back to DPRK government-linked blockchain addresses, according to U.S. authorities and blockchain payment records.

Crazy story, right?

🚨 Telegram Disclosed User IPs Since 2018

Telegram’s founder and CEO, Pavel Durov, has clarified that the platform has been disclosing IP addresses and phone numbers of criminals to authorities since 2018, not just recently. In a post on Oct. 2, Durov emphasized that this disclosure process was in place long before last week, following concerns raised about Telegram’s privacy practices.

Durov noted that Telegram only shares user data, such as IP addresses and phone numbers, after receiving legally valid requests related to criminal activity. This aligns with Telegram’s privacy policies in most countries. For example, Telegram fulfilled:

- 75 legal requests in Brazil in Q1 2024
- 2,461 requests in India in the same quarter

Despite this, Durov reassured users that Telegram’s core values of freedom and privacy have not changed. The company aims to protect users from corrupt governments while preventing criminals from exploiting the platform.

Durov’s statement comes after French authorities indicted him in August 2024 on charges related to illicit activity on Telegram. After his $5.5 million bail, Durov has been updating users on Telegram’s steps to combat illegal use of the platform while maintaining its commitment to privacy.

Ultimately, while Telegram complies with legal requirements, Durov assures users that the platform remains a safe space for activists and ordinary users alike.

🚨 URGENT: Seed Phrases NOT SAFE? Australian Feds Crack Seed Phrase, Seize $6.4M in Crypto

The Australian Federal Police (AFP) has successfully accessed a $6.4 million crypto wallet after deciphering the seed phrase of a suspect accused of developing an encrypted messaging app used by organized crime. The suspect, Jay Je Yoon Jung, allegedly created the "Ghost" app, which authorities claim was used for drug trafficking, money laundering, and even contract killings.

As part of Operation Kraken, the Criminal Assets Confiscation Taskforce (CACT) found and analyzed digital devices at Jung’s home, leading to the discovery of the seed phrase.

The AFP then transferred the cryptocurrency into secure AFP storage, with plans to use the seized assets to fund law enforcement initiatives.

This latest seizure is the second in the ongoing investigation, following the confiscation of $1.4 million in crypto and properties in August. The AFP emphasized its determination to confiscate illicit assets, whether hidden in cryptocurrency, real estate, or cash.

Jung was arrested on Sept. 17 and faces charges for supporting a criminal organization, among others, which could result in a 26-year prison sentence. According to the AFP, Ghost was designed specifically for criminals, and resellers sold modified smartphones with six months of access to the app for $1,600.

The AFP has not disclosed details on how they cracked the seed phrase or what devices were involved, as the case is still in court. Jung’s arrest and the seizure of his crypto assets mark significant progress in Australia’s fight against organized crime using digital tools.

The missing piece: Unfortunately we have no info if the AFP really cracked the seed phrase or if they simply found it stored on one of the devices in blank sight.

Stay cautious, stay safe & follow!

🚨 NFT Sales Drop 81% to Lowest Volume Since 2021 !!!

NFT sales continued to slide in September, hitting their lowest monthly volume since January 2021. According to CryptoSlam, NFT sales dropped to $296 million—a 20% decrease from August's $373 million and a staggering 81% drop from March’s peak of $1.6 billion.

Total transactions fell 32%, dropping from 7.3 million in August to 4.9 million in September. Despite the sharp decline, the average transaction value rose 18%, from $50.71 to $60 in September.
The NFT market’s struggles come as the U.S. SEC intensifies its scrutiny of the sector. On Aug. 28, OpenSea received a Wells notice from the SEC, indicating that some NFTs on the platform may be considered unregistered securities. Additionally, the SEC fined Flyfish Club $750,000 for selling NFTs as part of its membership model, sparking debate about whether NFTs should be subject to securities regulations.

Despite the regulatory crackdown, industry leaders like Luca Schnetzler, CEO of Pudgy Penguins, dismissed the SEC's actions as “nonsense.” Schnetzler argued that targeting NFT platforms like OpenSea would mean going after major players like Sotheby’s, Nike, and Pokemon, who have also embraced NFTs.
As sales continue to decline and regulatory pressures mount, the future of the NFT market remains uncertain. While some critics point to regulation as a potential barrier, others believe NFTs will find new ways to evolve, with focus shifting toward utility and real-world applications beyond collectibles.

🚨BREAKING: CHINA Adopting Crypto ??!

Zhu Guangyao, China's former Minister of Finance, has called on Beijing to take a closer look at the crypto industry, emphasizing both its risks and its potential role in the digital economy. Speaking at a summit hosted by Tsinghua University, Zhu stressed that while crypto poses significant dangers to capital markets, it is also an essential area that needs further study in light of global developments.

Zhu’s remarks were sparked by comments from Republican candidate Donald Trump, who urged the U.S. to fully embrace crypto or risk falling behind China. At the Bitcoin Conference in Nashville, Trump likened crypto to the steel industry of 100 years ago, predicting that it could eventually overtake gold. Zhu noted that the international shift in crypto policies, including the U.S. SEC’s approval of Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) ETFs, should serve as a wake-up call for China. While mainland China remains cautious, Hong Kong has embraced crypto, listing Bitcoin and Ether ETFs and actively courting the industry.
Zhu warned of the negative impacts of crypto, urging the government to recognize its potential harm to financial stability.

However, he also acknowledged that crypto is a crucial element of the evolving digital economy and called for a measured approach to understanding its global impact, particularly in the context of changing U.S. policies. China's position on crypto remains conservative, but as global crypto adoption rises, voices like Zhu’s could signal a shift in Beijing’s long-term strategy.

🚨 3 Reasons - Why BITCOIN Might NOT Reach a New ATH Yet

1. Weak Retail Investor Participation: Despite Bitcoin’s recent price surge, retail interest remains lackluster. For example, the Coinbase app, a popular platform for retail investors, ranked 385th on app stores as of September 28, an improvement from mid-September but still low. This suggests that the broader public isn't rushing to buy, indicating limited new retail inflows, even with Bitcoin’s recent gains.

2. Bearish Sentiment in China’s Stablecoin Market: Data from Chinese markets shows that stablecoins like USDT have been trading below parity with the US dollar, a bearish signal. Typically, stablecoins trade at a premium when there is high demand, but the persistent discount implies a lack of confidence and investor exit from the crypto market in China. This bearish outlook contradicts the positive sentiment seen in institutional inflows, particularly in U.S. spot ETFs.

3. Cautious BTC Derivatives Market: Even as Bitcoin approaches the $66,000 mark, derivatives traders remain cautious. Bitcoin futures contracts, usually favored by institutional investors, are showing a stabilized premium of around 6%, indicating a neutral market stance. This suggests that even sophisticated investors are not fully confident in a sustained rally, which provides bears with an opening to suppress prices.

These factors signal that, despite recent gains, Bitcoin’s price may not be primed for a breakout to a new all-time high.

🚨 BlackRock Quietly Backs $16 Trillion U.S. Dollar Rival USTb

As Bitcoin and crypto prices surge, BlackRock is making bold moves to reshape the financial landscape, backing a radical new stablecoin in the race toward $16 trillion in tokenized finance by 2030.

BlackRock's USD Institutional Digital Liquidity Fund (Buidl) is now fueling Ethena's new stablecoin UStb, a project aiming to revolutionize tokenized finance. This stablecoin will be fully backed by Buidl through a partnership with Securitize, blending the worlds of stablecoins and real-world asset tokenization. The collaboration marks a milestone in the tokenization revolution, as BlackRock positions itself at the center of this transformation—especially as fears around the U.S. dollar’s stability continue to grow.

Larry Fink, BlackRock’s CEO, once dismissed Bitcoin but now admits it is "digital gold" and "legitimate". He also believes the tokenization of assets on blockchain will drive a “revolution on Wall Street”, with $867 trillion in assets primed for disruption, according to the World Economic Forum. As Bitcoin pushes toward $70,000, traders are eyeing BlackRock’s moves. Its spot bitcoin ETF campaign and investments in crypto platforms like Securitize show BlackRock is serious about crypto and tokenized assets. Ethena's UStb stablecoin represents BlackRock’s bet on bridging traditional finance with blockchain technology. With tokenized assets growing rapidly—$120 billion already in circulation, and 58% of them on Ethereum—the push toward a $16 trillion market by 2030 is accelerating. BlackRock’s entry into this space signals that traditional finance is merging with crypto faster than ever, raising the stakes for both investors and regulators.

🚨 Diddy and Sam Bankman-Fried Share JAIL CELL

Things are getting slippery, as In an unexpected twist, hip-hop mogul Sean Combs aka. Diddy and convicted crypto fraudster Sam Bankman-Fried are currently housed in the same dormitory-style cell at the Metropolitan Detention Center (MDC) in Brooklyn. The pair, along with several other defendants, are sharing a large room rather than individual cells, according to a report by The New York Times.

Combs, arrested last week, faces federal racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking charges related to alleged criminal activities centered on his personal gratification. Despite offering an enormous bail package—including a $50 million bond, the passports of family members, and home detention with GPS monitoring—judges have twice denied his bail requests, citing concerns over drug abuse, anger issues, and witness tampering.

Meanwhile, Bankman-Fried, convicted for orchestrating a massive fraud scheme through his now-defunct cryptocurrency exchange FTX, has been serving his sentence at MDC since last fall. Though sentenced to 25 years in prison, he remains at MDC while his legal team prepares an appeal, which was filed earlier this month. The unusual arrangement has drawn attention, though the Bureau of Prisons has declined to comment on the specific housing situation or security details surrounding either high-profile figure. Both Combs and Bankman-Fried face ongoing legal battles, with Combs fighting charges and Bankman-Fried seeking to overturn his conviction.

Do you think they have enough baby oil in the jail cell?

🚨 Binance Founder CZ RELEASED from U.S. JAIL After 4 Months

Changpeng “CZ” Zhao, the founder of Binance, walked free on Sept. 27 after serving a four-month sentence in a U.S. federal prison. CZ pled guilty to charges related to Anti-Money Laundering (AML) violations and stepped down as CEO of Binance as part of the case. CZ's charges stemmed from failing to implement proper AML controls at Binance, leading to the facilitation of transactions between U.S. users and sanctioned countries like Iran. Originally, prosecutors sought a 36-month sentence to reflect the severity of the violations, but CZ’s sentence was reduced after a judge found no evidence that CZ knew of illegal activities at Binance.

@CZ spent the first two months of his sentence in a minimum-security prison in southern California, followed by time at a halfway house in Long Beach, where he was allowed supervised excursions. His sentence also included a $50 million fine, while Binance itself paid $4.3 billion in penalties for violating U.S. AML laws. While CZ is no longer managing or operating Binance, he remains the majority stakeholder, reportedly holding 90% of the exchange. Binance has thrived under its new leadership, boasting over 230 million users globally. A Binance spokesperson expressed excitement for CZ’s return to his family and the crypto space, though his next move remains unknown.

CZ's $60 billion net worth makes him the wealthiest person to ever serve a prison sentence in the U.S., but the case has not significantly impacted his fortune. The broader crypto community now waits to see how Binance and CZ will navigate the legal and regulatory challenges in the future.

DROP A LIKE TO WELCOME BACK CZ and let's celebrate LIFE together!!!

🚀 ROBINHOOD & REVOLUT entering Stablecoin Market!

Fintech giants Robinhood and Revolut are reportedly exploring their entry into the stablecoin market, as new regulations in Europe promise more clarity and disrupt the status quo. According to a Sept. 26 Bloomberg report, both companies are considering launching their own stablecoins, although neither has confirmed these plans publicly.

Currently, the stablecoin market is dominated by Tether (USDT), which controls over 75% of the market share. Tether's success, driven by macroeconomic turbulence and regulatory crackdowns in the U.S., has translated into record-breaking profits—$5.2 billion in the first half of 2024 alone. This lucrative business model encourages more players like Robinhood and Revolut to enter the space.

The European Union's Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulation is set to reshape the stablecoin industry with significant rules on reserve requirements, transparency, and transaction volume caps. The first phase of MiCA, implemented in June 2023, has already prompted exchanges like Binance and Kraken to reevaluate their stablecoin offerings. The second phase, taking effect on Dec. 30, will impose stricter regulations on crypto-asset service providers.

Under MiCA, stablecoins face a $200 million daily transaction cap for payments, and stringent requirements like holding 60% of reserves in cash deposits across multiple banks. Tether’s CEO, Paolo Ardoino, has criticized these regulations, citing difficulties in securing banking partnerships in Europe. While Tether may not fully comply with MiCA, Circle has adapted, announcing its Euro-backed stablecoin (EURC) to align with the new framework. This shifting regulatory environment, coupled with Tether’s dominance, opens opportunities for new entrants like Robinhood and Revolut, who may look to capitalize on growing demand for stablecoins with compliance in mind.

Brace yourself as the next BIG PUSH might be just around the corner!!!

🚀 Bitcoin FOMO Is Back: $70K Target in Sight

A $10 billion surge in stablecoin minting over the past few weeks has poured liquidity into the crypto markets, pushing Bitcoin out of its downtrend, according to 10X Research's Markus Thielen. With Bitcoin now breaking above $65,000, Thielen’s analysis suggests a swift move toward $70,000, and potentially new all-time highs. Following the Fed's rate pause in July and its mid-September rate cut, $10 billion in stablecoins were minted, significantly surpassing spot ETF flows. Circle’s USDC made up 40% of these inflows, indicating a possible rise in DeFi activity, unlike the typical capital-preservation association with Tether (USDT). This flood of liquidity is a key factor in Bitcoin’s upward momentum.

Thielen also highlighted that 55% of Bitcoin’s mining currently comes from Chinese mining pools. With China’s fiscal stimulus measures post-Fed rate cut, there could be large capital outflows from China into cryptos, further driving the market’s liquidity and boosting Bitcoin prices. With Bitcoin reaching $66,300, Thielen predicts an exceptionally high chance of a major Q4 rally, with gains likely to be front-loaded. The current bullish sentiment and influx of liquidity suggest that FOMO (fear of missing out) is creeping back into the market, potentially fueling a surge past $70,000.

As Bitcoin inches closer to its 2023 highs, the question is: Are you holding enough to ride this new wave?

🚨 3 Reasons Why BTC STRUGGLES to hit $70k+ 🚨

1. The global economic backdrop has become a source of concern for Bitcoin traders. In the US, the housing market is flashing warning signs, with new home sales dropping 4.6% year-over-year in August. This marks seven consecutive months of price declines, the longest streak since 2009, signaling a potential slowdown. Across the globe, China’s central bank cut interest rates and offered a $142 billion credit line to businesses, but analysts warn this may not be enough to reverse the country's economic slowdown.

2. Concerns about a potential US stock market correction are weighing on Bitcoin. On Sept. 24, Berkshire Hathaway reduced its stake in Bank of America, selling $8.9 billion worth of shares. With the S&P 500 reaching an all-time high on Sept. 25, traders are bracing for a potential pullback, which could drag down Bitcoin as well. Bitcoin’s performance is often linked to broader market sentiment, and a stock market correction could trigger liquidations in crypto markets. Traders are particularly cautious, as macro and financial pressures converge, making Bitcoin’s price action more volatile.

3. The upcoming US presidential election has added another layer of uncertainty. Investors are wary of potential changes in crypto regulation, particularly with Vice President Kamala Harris seen as the Democratic Party's candidate. The current administration’s stance on crypto has been viewed as less supportive, leading traders to adopt a cautious approach. On the other hand, Donald Trump, the Republican candidate, has been pro-Bitcoin, even speaking at the Bitcoin 2024 conference and supporting miners. His victory could fuel bullish sentiment, while a Harris win might cool market enthusiasm, creating election-driven volatility.

Looking at the upcoming elections, we can expect strong market movements in November so prepare yourself and stay updated by following @Professor Mende - Bonuz Ecosystem Founder !

🔥 Biden Admin Wanted To KILL CRYPTO

In a fiery accusation, Castle Island Ventures partner Nic Carter claims that Silvergate Bank—once a crypto-friendly institution—was forced into liquidation by U.S. regulators to "decapitate" the cryptocurrency industry. In a Sept. 25 article, Carter asserted that Silvergate was on track to survive its challenges until the Biden administration imposed a 15% cap on crypto deposits, threatening the bank with shutdown if it didn’t comply.

Carter believes this move is part of what he calls "Operation Choke Point 2.0," a covert government campaign aimed at crippling crypto-focused banks. He alleges that the U.S. government's pressure on Silvergate, Signature Bank, and Silicon Valley Bank—all prominent crypto banking partners—worsened the 2023 banking crisis, contributing to the largest financial meltdown since 2008. According to Carter’s sources, Silvergate’s voluntary liquidation was “suspicious,” with regulators unprepared for such a rare event. He also contends that Silvergate, had it been allowed to surpass the 15% crypto cap, would be thriving today, especially as crypto markets rebounded strongly in late 2023.

Silvergate’s fate wasn’t sealed by market conditions alone, Carter argues. The bank faced inordinate pressure from agencies like the FDIC and political figures such as Senator Elizabeth Warren, especially due to its ties with the now-bankrupt FTX. An insider revealed that Silvergate had no choice but to comply: “When they say you gotta do something, you do it. Though Carter acknowledges Silvergate’s lapses in areas like anti-money laundering controls and FTX oversight, he asserts the bank’s liquidation wasn’t a consequence of mismanagement but rather regulatory harassment. Carter paints a chilling picture of a coordinated campaign against crypto, raising concerns about the future of crypto in the U.S. .

With that being said, Kamala will play her cards the way she's gonna be told to I guess...

🚀 Bitcoin Breakout to $73.7K Imminent!?

According to Bitget analyst Ryan Lee, Bitcoin is poised for an imminent breakout toward its all-time high of $73,750 in the coming weeks, potentially starting in late October to November. However, the road to that level may not be smooth, with occasional sell-offs expected, especially as the U.S. election looms. Lee notes that the current bullish momentum is fueled by rate cuts from both the Federal Reserve (50 basis points) and the People’s Bank of China (30 basis points), which have made riskier assets like Bitcoin more attractive to investors. However, the intensity of sell-offs will likely depend on market sentiment surrounding the 2024 U.S. presidential election.

The possibility of a pro-Bitcoin president taking office could play a major role in how investors approach the upcoming rally. If confidence grows around a crypto-friendly leader like Donald Trump, who has pledged to make the U.S. the “world capital of crypto and Bitcoin,” traders may hesitate to sell, hoping to capture even larger profits down the line. On the flip side, if Kamala Harris wins, the bullishness may shift to crypto markets outside the U.S., potentially leading to sell-offs as companies and traders position themselves for a more crypto-regulated domestic market.

With Bitcoin currently trading at $63,820, up 2.75% since Sept. 19, many traders are eyeing the next big move. Lee suggests Bitcoiners “lay out their bets early” to maximize gains, as the anticipated election sentiment and rate cut environment could create the perfect storm for Bitcoin’s next bullish run.

🚀 Crypto Trader Turns $1,300 into $3.4 Million in Just 15 Days—But Is It Pure Luck? 🚀

A crypto investor has achieved the seemingly impossible, transforming a modest $1,300 investment into $3.4 million in just 15 days by betting on the meme coin Moo Deng (MOODENG). The hippo-themed token saw a mind-blowing 2,554x return, leaving the crypto community buzzing with excitement—and suspicion.

According to Lookonchain data, the trader bought 38.7 million MOODENG tokens on Sept. 10, using 9.8 Solana (SOL) worth $1,331 at the time. By Sept. 25, the explosive price surge had turned that small investment into a $3.4 million fortune.

However, with the MOODENG liquidity pool sitting at just $1.8 million, it’s unlikely the trader could cash out the entire sum without significantly impacting the token’s market price.
The dramatic profit spike has raised eyebrows, with some community members speculating insider trading or the involvement of a developer. Given the liquidity limitations, this meteoric rise seems suspicious to many, while others celebrate the trader's "lucky break" and hope to replicate such success themselves. This isn’t the only recent story of jaw-dropping gains. On Sept. 26, Lookonchain uncovered another trader who turned a $95 altcoin bet into $96,900 in under 12 hours by trading INCEPT tokens—again raising insider wallet suspicions.

While these quick wins capture attention, some crypto investors stick to the hodl strategy, and it's paying off. One Ethereum investor made a $131.72 million profit by holding 96,639 ETH purchased during the 2022 bear market for two years, weathering volatile market conditions. Whether it’s a stroke of genius or a product of insider moves, these massive gains highlight the unpredictable and sometimes controversial world of memecoin trading.

🚨 $8.1 Billion $BTC Options Expiring - CRASH or MOON?!

Bitcoin is on the verge of its second-largest options expiry of 2024, with $8.1 billion set to expire on Sept. 27. The burning question: Will this massive expiry trigger a bullish surge towards $70,000, or are the bears ready to strike back?

🟢 Bulls Hold the Upper Hand: The macroeconomic landscape looks promising for Bitcoin. As central banks like the Federal Reserve and People's Bank of China (PBOC) implement more accommodative policies, risk-on assets like BTC are thriving. China's recent $113.8 billion liquidity injection and mortgage relief measures echo the Fed’s easing, creating an environment ripe for Bitcoin’s growth. Historically, Bitcoin shines in inflationary periods, and with both economies stimulating growth, bulls are optimistic that $63,000 will hold, possibly pushing toward $65,000.

🔴 But Bears Aren't Done Yet: Despite the bullish setup, bears have their sights set on pushing Bitcoin below $60,000 before the expiry. They’re eyeing a scenario where $250 million in put options gain value if BTC drops to the $57,000-$58,000 range. However, the sheer volume of call options, valued at $4.9 billion, outweighs the $3.2 billion in puts, putting bears under pressure.

Key Expiry Scenarios:
- Below $58,000: Bears claim a $250M win.
- $58,000-$60,000: A balanced outcome.
- $60,000-$62,000: Bulls seize a $550M advantage.
- $62,000-$64,000: Bulls dominate with $1B gains.

With 55% of call options set at ambitious strike prices of $70,000 and beyond, the real action is happening in the $60K-$64K range, where bulls have a significant edge. The favorable macro conditions combined with aggressive bullish positioning suggest
Bitcoin might be gearing up for another leg higher. Could this be the rally to $70K? Time is ticking, and the pressure is on. Get ready for the next market moves with @Professor Mende - Bonuz Ecosystem Founder and drop a follow to receive more updates!

🚨 FTX Fraud Update: 2 Years Prison Sentence For Ex-Alameda Research CEO Caroline Ellison

In a major development, former Alameda Research CEO Caroline Ellison has been sentenced to two years in prison for her involvement in the FTX fraud—one of the largest financial frauds in U.S. history. A federal judge also ruled that Ellison, 29, must forfeit a staggering $11 billion. Despite her cooperation with prosecutors, Ellison was not spared from serving time due to the magnitude of the crime. Ellison played a crucial role in the conviction of Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF), the founder of FTX and her former boyfriend, by testifying against him. Her cooperation was called “extraordinary” by prosecutors, with Judge Lewis A. Kaplan acknowledging that she was "exploited" but had shown genuine remorse for her actions. Despite this, the seriousness of the case prevented a complete leniency, as the judge remarked, "A 'get out of jail free' card is not something I can see my way through to."

FTX, under Bankman-Fried and Ellison’s leadership, was responsible for manipulating financial data and engaging in fraudulent schemes that misled lenders and clients, leading to its collapse. Ellison admitted her role, stating she had lost her "moral compass" but was now remorseful. While Bankman-Fried was sentenced to 25 years in prison, Ellison's lighter sentence reflects her proactive cooperation with authorities. She is expected to serve at least 75% of her sentence before being eligible for parole.

In her brief statement before sentencing, Ellison apologized to former FTX and Alameda customers, as well as her colleagues, expressing deep regret for her actions and the damage caused. “I can’t even begin to imagine the pain I’ve caused,” she said, as she reflected on her inability to break free from the fraudulent scheme.
