The firm declared bankruptcy in November, after customers and investors rushed to pull their funds from the firm amid reports that its finances were shaky. Mr Bankman-Fried, who stepped down as chief executive the same day, has previously denied deliberate wrongdoing, and said he is focused on restoring funds to customers. The collapse of his firm, which was once valued at more than $30bn, has unsettled the wider industry, sparking bankruptcy filings at other firms and further declines in crypto values. Former FTX boss Sam Bankman-Fried will face home detention while awaiting trial in the US on charges that he defrauded customers and investors of the collapsed cryptocurrency exchange. A US judge said the 30-year-old former billionaire could be released to his parents on a $250m bond. Do you think that Mr Bankman-Fried should be judged ?
