ChainCatcher Сообщение, что правительство США ранее конфисковало акции Anthropic, принадлежащие двум ключевым союзникам основателя FTX Сэма Бэнкмана-Фрида (SBF) Каролине Эллисон и Нишаду Сингху, и в 2025 году продаст соответствующие акции существующим инвесторам Anthropic, однако конкретные покупатели, цена сделки и сумма, полученная правительством, до сих пор не раскрыты. Суд ранее постановил, что Эллисон и Сингх должны конфисковать акции Anthropic. Правительство США получило акции обоих в феврале и апреле 2025 года. Оба ранее инвестировали 10 миллионов долларов и 40 миллионов долларов соответственно в раунд финансирования B Anthropic в 2022 году.С ростом оценки Anthropic стоимость акций обоих значительно возросла. Профессор UCLA Олав Соренсон оценил, что согласно оценке Anthropic в 965 миллиардов долларов, объявленной в мае этого года, общая стоимость акций составляет примерно от 4.17 до 5.03 миллиардов долларов; если Anthropic выйдет на биржу с оценкой в 2 триллиона долларов, стоимость соответствующих акций может достичь примерно 5.44 миллиарда долларов. В настоящее время неясно, по какой цене правительство США продаст эти акции. Оценки показывают, что если сделка произойдет в разные моменты времени в 2025 году, доход от продажи соответствующих акций может составить от 250 миллионов до 1.1 миллиарда долларов. Стоит отметить, что по состоянию на конец июня 2026 года доход от продажи, похоже, еще не был переведен в систему управления банкротством FTX. Представитель жертв FTX Суниль Кавури заявил, что правительство должно использовать соответствующие средства для компенсации жертвам; Министерство юстиции США заявило, что приоритетом является предоставление компенсации жертвам из конфискованных активов, но информация о продаже активов и распределении средств является конфиденциальной.

ChainCatcher Новости, Второй окружной апелляционный суд США официально выпустил указ, подтвердивший семь обвинений в тяжких преступлениях против бывшего генерального директора FTX Сэма Бэнкмана-Фрида и приговоривший его к 25 годам лишения свободы, а также отклонивший его апелляцию о полном возмещении ущерба для инвесторов.

Сообщение ChainCatcher, согласно отчету ABC News, Федеральный апелляционный суд Нью-Йорка во вторник подтвердил осуждение SBF за мошенничество и заговор после краха его криптовалютной торговой платформы FTX. В 2024 году SBF был приговорен к 25 годам лишения свободы за организацию, которую прокуратура назвала одним из крупнейших финансовых мошенничеств в истории США.

ChainCatcher Новости, крипто-журналист Элеонор Террет на платформе X сообщила, что Сенат США вчера единогласно принял резолюцию, в которой говорится, что основатель FTX Сэм Банкман-Фрид не должен получать президентское помилование.Эта резолюция была предложена сенаторами Рубеном Гальего и Синтией Луммис и официально фиксирует политическое заявление Сената против помилования SBF.Тем не менее, эта резолюция не имеет юридической силы, поэтому она не остановит президента США от будущего помилования SBF и не окажет прямого влияния на его текущую правовую ситуацию.

ChainCatcher Новости, согласно длинному репортажу в «Нью-Йоркском журнале», основатель FTX Сэм Банкман-Фрид (34 года) в настоящее время отбывает наказание в федеральной тюрьме Ломпок, Калифорния, и ежедневно принимает Adderall и Emsam из-за клинической депрессии и СДВГ. SBF продолжает писать сериал мемуаров под названием «Manfred», который отправляет нескольким близким друзьям через тюремную почтовую систему. Он не ест в столовой из-за вегетарианства и сам закупает продукты в магазине, чтобы готовить еду, а также составил «вегетарианскую тюремную кулинарную книгу».SBF потратил около 135 долларов на покупку тюремного планшета и уже сыграл в одну и ту же игру около 6000 раз. По словам сокамерника Дэвида Буневаца, SBF однажды заявил, что после выхода на свободу ему потребуется от 50 до 100 миллионов долларов стартового капитала для создания бизнеса и сказал, что «выпустит свою новую монету, и все будут стремиться к ней», но Буневац добавил, что «возможно, он шутил». SBF официально подал заявку на президентское помилование 8 июня, а 12 июня его апелляция была отклонена, вероятность его помилования на Polymarket составляет около 14%.

Сообщение ChainCatcher, согласно Reuters, апелляция бывшего генерального директора FTX Сэма Банкмана-Фрида с просьбой отменить его осуждение за мошенничество и приговор в 25 лет тюремного заключения была отклонена. Этот результат означает, что его прежнее осуждение по делу о мошенничестве и срок наказания остаются без изменений.

Сообщение ChainCatcher, согласно отчету Bloomberg, основатель FTX Сэм Банкман-Фрид официально подал заявку на президентское помилование через официальную процедуру. SBF в настоящее время отбывает 25-летний срок, его семья ранее на протяжении нескольких месяцев активно лоббировала правительство Трампа.В январе этого года Трамп четко заявил, что не намерен помиловать SBF, несколько республиканцев, поддерживающих криптовалюту, также активно выступили против, считая этот шаг крайне чувствительным с политической точки зрения.

According to Forbes, SBF's early investment portfolio is being re-evaluated by the market, with some opinions suggesting that if he had not been imprisoned due to the FTX collapse, his venture capital layout could theoretically yield a wealth increase of up to about $100 billion.Before the FTX collapse, SBF had established an investment landscape covering several star companies, including Anthropic, SpaceX, Robinhood, and the AI programming tool Cursor, which was considered to have significant foresight.Industry insiders pointed out that he had bet on key tracks ahead of the AI wave, among which: Cursor recently reached a partnership with SpaceX, with a valuation potentially reaching $60 billion, and Anthropic's valuation is nearing $90 billion. Rory O'Driscoll, a partner at Scale Venture Partners, stated that SBF had laid out investments in several core AI companies before ChatGPT, "demonstrating a rare investment sensitivity." However, this "investment talent narrative" was ultimately completely altered by the FTX collapse.SBF is currently serving a 25-year sentence for misappropriating over $8 billion in customer funds. At his peak, his personal wealth reached about $24 billion, and he made it onto the Forbes 400 list. Today, his venture capital capabilities are intertwined with his history of financial crime, making him one of the most controversial cases in cryptocurrency history.

U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan denied former FTX CEO SBF's request for a rehearing and harshly criticized the so-called new evidence he presented as baseless and "conspiracy-laden." In a court order issued on Tuesday, the judge pointed out that SBF's claims that FTX was actually solvent, that the Department of Justice was concealing information, and that witnesses were afraid to testify due to government threats were completely contradictory to the record.SBF originally accused former FTX Digital Markets co-CEO Ryan Salame and former data science chief Daniel Chapsky of not appearing in court out of fear, but the judge emphasized that SBF could have summoned or compelled them to testify but took no action. In November 2023, SBF was found guilty on all seven counts of fraud by a New York jury and was subsequently sentenced to 25 years in prison. Last week, he voluntarily withdrew his motion for a new trial, stating that he could not obtain a "fair hearing" from Judge Kaplan, but the appeal is still ongoing.The judge also criticized SBF for creating public opinion through interviews, stating that the so-called new facts had already been raised multiple times. SBF had sought a pardon from Trump, but Trump has also made it clear that there are no such plans.

According to KOL AB Kuai.Dong (@_FORAB), FTX founder SBF is imprisoned for misappropriating about $16 billion of user assets, but the potential value of his investment portfolio has sparked widespread discussion.If FTX had not gone through bankruptcy liquidation, the estimated returns on its holdings are as follows: Anthropic approximately $82.3 billion (about 165 times), SpaceX approximately $15 billion (about 75 times), Robinhood approximately $4.9 billion (about 8 times), Genesis Digital Assets approximately $3.5 billion (about 3 times), and the AI programming tool Cursor approximately $3 billion (about 15,000 times, with an original investment of only $200,000 for a 5% stake). The total potential value of the above assets exceeds $100 billion.

SBF wrote to New York Judge Lewis Kaplan, announcing the temporary withdrawal of the Rule 33 motion for a retrial. SBF stated that he needed to focus on answering the judge's question about whether his lawyers were involved in drafting the motion, and he believed he could not receive a fair hearing before that judge, so he decided to withdraw the motion. He plans to reserve the right to resubmit the motion after a ruling on the direct appeal and the related request for reassignment of the judge.Previously, SBF was sentenced to 25 years in prison for defrauding clients and investors. In his letter, he confirmed that the motion was primarily completed through his independent legal research and drafting while in Brooklyn prison, with his parents only providing editorial suggestions and assistance with printing.

SpaceX announced today that it has reached a cooperation intention with AI programming startup Cursor, which grants SpaceX the right to acquire it later this year for $60 billion, or to pay $10 billion to advance the cooperation between the two parties.It is reported that Cursor's developer Anysphere completed a $400,000 Pre-Seed round of financing in April 2022, jointly invested by Alameda Research and Heroic Ventures. Among them, Alameda invested $200,000 in Anysphere, acquiring about 5% of the shares.This equity was sold at the original price during the bankruptcy liquidation of FTX. Based on a $60 billion valuation, if the equity had not been sold, it would currently be worth about $3 billion.

Binance founder Zhao Changpeng (CZ) reveals his past with FTX founder SBF in his new book "Binance Life."In the summer of 2019, just a month after FTX launched, SBF actively sought investment. At that time, Binance CFO Zhou Wei supported the investment, and CZ ultimately decided to invest after FTX's valuation was lowered and a proposal to exchange BNB for FTT was made. However, after the investment, SBF poached Binance's VIP client manager with a fivefold salary, taking all VIP client information, which led to clients receiving targeted offers from FTX.CZ pointed out that SBF appeared to have high emotional intelligence and promoted "effective altruism," yet shortly after the investment, he was speaking ill of Binance all over Washington. In 2021, there were reports that FTX executives had close ties with politically connected Michelle Bond, promoting FTX while belittling Binance. Additionally, friends confirmed that SBF had publicly slandered Binance at closed-door gatherings. CZ had asked SBF to stop poaching, and while SBF verbally agreed, he continued to recruit with high salaries.

According to CoinDesk, Binance founder CZ stated in his autobiography "Freedom of Money" that during a phone call before Binance attempted to acquire FTX in November 2022, Sam Bankman-Fried casually asked him for tens of billions of dollars, "like ordering a bologna sandwich," and he had no intention of actually pushing the deal forward from the start.CZ wrote: "I had no interest in owning FTX, and I wasn't particularly interested in helping SBF either. But we might have to step in to protect users and the entire industry." He mentioned that he signed the non-binding letter of intent (LOI) just for formality: "I had already made it clear at the time that we would not make any commitments. Our team was just assessing the data before deciding."Regarding the collapse of FTX, CZ believes the key turning point was when former Alameda CEO Caroline Ellison publicly proposed to buy back the FTT held by Binance at a price of $22 (attempting to stabilize the market), which she made a "fatal mistake." "She effectively exposed the price floor," CZ wrote. Subsequently, professional traders quickly shorted FTT below that price. In just 72 hours, about $6 billion flowed out of FTX.CZ also revealed a Signal group called "Exchange Collaboration," created by former FTX institutional sales head Zane Tackett during the Terra (LUNA) collapse that year, with members including CZ, SBF, Brian Armstrong (Coinbase CEO), Jesse Powell (founder of Kraken), and other exchange executives. The group later attracted the attention of investigations by the U.S. Department of Justice and the Securities and Exchange Commission. "They were very eager to find evidence of collusion or market manipulation between exchanges, but in fact, such situations did not exist," CZ stated.

The identities of the bail guarantors for FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried have been disclosed, including former Stanford Law School Dean Larry Kramer and research scientist Andreas Paepcke, who provided guarantees of $500,000 and $200,000, respectively.Reports indicate that the total bail amount of $250 million for SBF is primarily secured by properties owned by his parents in California. Previously, his lawyers attempted to keep the identities of the guarantors confidential, but the court requested their disclosure in response to media requests. Currently, the related case is still under review, and SBF is facing multiple fraud charges.

According to CoinDesk, federal prosecutors submitted documents to the judge questioning the authenticity of a letter claimed by FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried to have been sent from prison. Prosecutors pointed out that the letter was actually sent via FedEx from the Palo Alto or Menlo Park area, which does not match the Terminal Island federal prison where he is located, and the letter incorrectly labeled his federal prison as a state facility, using a typed signature instead of a handwritten one, violating the federal prison's prohibition on using private couriers to send mail.Although prosecutors did not directly accuse SBF or his associates of forging documents, they stated that the aforementioned inconsistencies are sufficient to raise reasonable doubts about the letter's origin, which will affect the credibility of related evidence in his motion for reconsideration. SBF is currently serving a 25-year prison sentence for fraud and conspiracy and is actively seeking a reconsideration, but the appellate judges have shown clear skepticism towards his claims.

According to CoinDesk, Sam Bankman-Fried, who was sentenced to 25 years in prison, has increased his public praise for President Trump, including support for the recent U.S. actions against Iran. SBF believes this move is a necessary response to nuclear risks and claims that the action has significantly weakened Iran's military capabilities. This statement has sparked speculation about his seeking a presidential pardon.
