Sam Bankman-Fried has vowed to appeal his sentence after he finally faced justice and was ordered to spend 25 years behind bars and forfit $11billion for scamming and defrauding crypto investors.
‘A lot of people feel really let down and comic, https://oregairu.net, they were very let down. I'm sorry about that. I'm sorry about what happened at every stage,' Bankman-Fried said as he pleaded for a lighter sentence during a Thursday hearing in New York City federal court. 'Things I should have done, things I shouldn't have.'
The judge said that one of Bankman-Fried's famous expressions of 'I f**ked up' was pithy, but he added the former FTX boss never uttered 'a word of remorse for the commission of terrible crimes.'
'Mr. Bankman-Fried has the right to plead not guilty…but at the end of the day he knew it was wrong. He knew it was criminal,' Judge Lewis Kaplan said as Bankman-Fried showed little reaction.
