🚨🚨Sam Bankman-Fried thought ‘taking FTX deposits through Alameda was legal’: Report

The former FTX CEO took the stand for the first time in his criminal trial, but without members of the jury present.

Former FTX CEO Sam “SBF” Bankman-Fried addressed a New York courtroom under oath without the 12-member jury present.

According to reports from the courtroom on Oct. 26, SBF’s highly anticipated testimony kicked off in a hearing with defense attorney Mark Cohen questioning the former FTX CEO on his use of the messaging app Signal and retention of communications data at the crypto exchange. Bankman-Fried reportedly claimed he acted in accordance with company policies on records, and none of the media set to “auto-delete” were “channels for decisions.”
