山姆·班克曼-弗萊德周三對巴哈馬法院表示,他已經(jīng)同意被引渡回美國,面對與加密貨幣交易平臺FTX破產(chǎn)有關(guān)的刑事指控。據(jù)巴哈馬媒體Our News報道,這位FTX前CEO出現(xiàn)在一所治安法院,預(yù)計他將乘坐奧德賽航空公司(Odyssey Aviation)的航班返回美國。
巴哈馬當(dāng)局上周應(yīng)美國政府的請求逮捕了班克曼-弗萊德。美國檢察官指控他在FTX快速破產(chǎn)過程中發(fā)揮了關(guān)鍵作用,并且他向公眾和投資者隱瞞了該平臺存在的問題。美國證券交易委員會(Securities and Exchange Commission)表示,班克曼-弗萊德非法使用投資者的資金,以其本人和家人的名義購買房地產(chǎn)。
30歲的班克曼-弗萊德可能余生都要在獄中度過。
在巴哈馬法官裁決他會造成航空風(fēng)險后,周五他的保釋被拒絕。這位FTX創(chuàng)始人兼前CEO的個人財富一度達到數(shù)百億美元。他目前被羈押在巴哈馬福克斯希爾監(jiān)獄。該監(jiān)獄曾被人權(quán)組織批評環(huán)境惡劣,并且老鼠和蟲子泛濫。
在回到美國后,班克曼-弗萊德的律師就可以申請為他保釋。(財富中文網(wǎng))

Sam Bankman-Fried told a Bahamian court Wednesday that he has agreed to be extradited to the U.S. to face criminal charges related to the collapse of cryptocurrency exchange FTX. The former FTX CEO appeared at a Magistrate’s Court and is expected to head to Odyssey Aviation to return to the United States, according to Bahamian news organization Our News.
Bahamian authorities arrested Bankman-Fried last week at the request of the U.S. government. U.S. prosecutors allege he played a central role in the rapid collapse of FTX and hid its problems from the public and investors. The Securities and Exchange Commission said Bankman-Fried illegally used investors’ money to buy real estate on behalf of himself and his family.
The 30-year-old could potentially spend the rest of his life in jail.
Bankman-Fried was denied bail Friday after a Bahamian judge ruled that he posed a flight risk. The founder and former CEO of FTX, once worth tens of billions of dollars on paper, is being held in the Bahamas’ Fox Hill prison, which has been has been cited by human rights activists as having poor sanitation and as being infested with rats and insects.
Once he’s back in the U.S., Bankman-Fried’s attorney will be able to request that he be released on bail.
