Sam Bankman-Fried : peanut butter, laptop access and Elon Musk's newest biography

Things are not going well for Sam Bankman-Fried, the former billionaire and founder of FTX, the third largest crypto site in the world until last year. Sam is in jail in Brooklyn, has no access to vegan food or medication for ADHD, only gets access to a laptop for a few hours a day and has to wait anxiously for an Elon Musk biography to be released next week. An overview.

Brooklyn

The American media is looking forward to the trial of Sam Bankman-Fried, the former CEO everyone adored when FTX was still doing very well. Since he hired a lot of celebrities to promote his site, Tom Brady, Gisele Bundchen, Stephen Curry, Larry David are also expected at some point either in defense strategy or in court itself.

It could easily be as big as Johnny Depp versus Amber Heard that way.

Until the beginning of the summer, Sam was under house arrest with his parents in California, but that changed when he tried to put part of the blame on his ex Caroline Ellison. A judge moved him to a cell in Brooklyn and he has been ‘subsisting on bread and water’ ever since, according to his lawyer. The only thing Sam can eat to meet his vegan diet is peanut butter.

Preparation

According to his team of lawyers, there is also something wrong with their client’s laptop access. Previously, Sam had access to the internet, but now he has to go to a court with his lawyers to review evidence against him on a laptop without internet for several hours a week. The lawyers also believe that the laptop’s battery needs work.

Elon Musk

Lastly, the legal team hopes that the latest Elon Musk’s newest biography, which will be published next week and was written by Walter Isaacson, doesn’t make too much fun of Sam and doesn’t reveal too many details about FTX financial situation.

In the spring of last year, Sam famously contacted the Tesla boss and asked him to take over Twitter together. Musk did not trust Bankman-Fried and refused.

When FTX went bankrupt last November, Elon said he never understood how everyone had become convinced that SBF could “walk on water.” You can be sure that FTX and Sam Bankman-Fried will be featured in the book.
