The crypto community has expressed heavy disapproval of a New York Times interview with FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried, saying it paints a soft picture of the situation.
The crypto community is beginning to draw attention to a New York Times report on Sam Bankman-Fried. The piece, titled “How Sam Bankman-Fried’s Crypto Empire Collapsed,” talks about how the exchange fell.
However, crypto community members believe that ដុំនេះ airbrushed the events and glossed over key details. Specifically, they took offense to how it looked over some key reports and the soft touch with which it reported the downfall of FTX.
Statements such as “[FTX] collapsed last week after a run on deposits left his crypto exchange, FTX, with an $8 billion shortfall” was criticized. The crypto community sees it as stealing and points to this as another example of understatement.
The crypto community has been quite vociferous in its criticism of FTX’s dealing, saying that it was effectively gambling with customers’ funds. Many called it a softball piece. Kraken co-founder and CEO Jesse Powell chided the NYT for “pumping the FTX scam.”
Zcash founder Zooko Wilcox បានបញ្ជាក់ that it was disgusting complicity on the part of the publication.
