តារាល្បីៗ វិនិយោគិនឈ្លោះគ្នាដើម្បីលុបភស្តុតាងនៃចំណង SBF

Sam Bankman-Fried, essentially, deceived everyone. 

Celebrity backers. Politicians. Regulators. 

Now, as industry participants parse the growing fallout of the collapse of his former cryptocurrency exchange, FTX, prominent figures are rushing to quietly erase evidence of once-chummy relationships with the alleged fraudster. 

The NFL’s Tom Brady, for one — who in 2021 bought an equity stake in FTX with then-wife Gisele Bundchen — wiped all evidence of his ties to the company and Bankman-Fried. 

CFTC Commissioner Caroline Pham, appointed in April 2022, deleted a tweet of a photograph with Bankman-Fried that she had posted shortly after she was sworn in.

Pham went on to call for more stringent global regulations after FTX filed for bankruptcy during a ទីភ្នាក់ងារ Bloomberg appearance last week. 

Billionaire hedge fund manager Bill Ackman also joined in on the deleting spree, removing a supportive response to Bankman-Fried’s apology. Ackman quickly was hit by pushback — especially from digital asset-focused investors — for appearing too forgiving in the wake of the collapse.  

Other celebrities have remained silent. Comedian Larry David, who famously starred in FTX’s alleged $30 million ការផ្សាយពាណិជ្ជកម្មទំនើប, has not made any public statements. And NBA star ស្ទ្រីរីរី, a face of the brand who also holds an equity stake, has likewise gone dark. 

អ្នក​នយោបាយ who benefited from Bankman-Fried’s ill-gotten gains are also doing damage control. 

Democrats Dick Durbin and Jesús “Chuy” García said they would បរិច្ចាក the $2,900 they received from Bankman-Fried to undisclosed charities, according to a report from the សត្វប្រចាំថ្ងៃ. Republican David Schweikert pledged to give up his FTX-linked cash, which also amounted to $2,900.

As the now-defunct exchange and more than 130 affiliated companies continue with bankruptcy proceedings, the list of ម្ចាស់បំណុល lies somewhere between 100,000 and one million users and investors, according to regulators. Some hope remains, though.

“All may not be lost for FTX customers, and they may be able to recover 40% to 50% of their deposits,” Ryan Selkis, founder of Messari, wrote in a research note Tuesday. “Sifting through FTX’s balance sheet, as shared by the Financial Times, shows that FTX may have up to $4 billion in realizable assets against $8 billion in customer deposits. Some broad assumptions must be made to calculate the realizable value of FTX’s assets.”

Representatives for those with FTX affiliations did not immediately return requests for comment.
