The crypto community spotted the ill-fated ex-CEO of FTX in the business lounge at JFK airport. Bankman-Fried was relaxing with her laptop and other belongings before her flight to San Francisco.
Do Bankman’s official figures make sense?
Bankman-Fried was released on a record $250 million bail after his parents, who are law professors, paid for him. This news left the crypto community puzzled after he claimed that he only had $100,000 left in his bank account after the collapse of FTX.
According to reports, his parents are professors of law at Oxford. Thus, the crypto community doubts his family’s ability to pay such a high bail. As a result, those affected by FTX’s collapse have recently observed its public stances.
On Christmas Eve, some in the crypto community saw Bankman-Fried chilling out in the lounge at JFK International Airport. They even snapped footage of the EX-CEO of FTX, which depicted him sitting with full access to tech gadgets such as a laptop and cellphone.
According to The Verge, the ex-CEO was accompanied by his parents, FBI agents and lawyers. Another photo of him is on a flight to San Francisco dressed up in a beanie.
These images have raised questions about the validity of Bankman-Fried’s statements. Specifically, he claimed he was on the verge of bankruptcy and had no access to personal or business data, even with his laptop and phone. Bankman had made the claims to Maxine Waters, chair of the US House Financial Services Committee.
The reactions following the posting of the images on Twitter expressed that the crypto community is not buying his bankruptcy story. The news also comes as his ex-girlfriend, Carolyn Ellison, cooperates with authorities to find out what happened to FTX’s misuse of customer funds.
