It's not clear that SBF knew the severity of the situation, kind of like he didn't bother to keep thorough accounting records. There was initially a rumor that SBF took a flight to S. America, perhaps Argentina, or somewhere in the neighborhood. Perhaps Bahamian authorities told him not to go anywhere, and perhaps he thought he could explain his way out of the situation, and recover. I don't know.artis said:That is only for the last couple of days. He was free for like a month after FTX filed for bankruptcy and given he knew what he was doing and where it was all heading I'd say he was well aware of the possible outcome at least a month prior to that , so at least two months. I mean plenty of time.
Then again, where would he go? With those kind of losses, if another country tried to shield him, that country might find itself on the receiving end of sanctions and disconnection from the global banking system.
Well, that certainly blew up!BWV said:Sam Bankman-Fried just lost 90+% of his net worth and his company, FTX
