FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried was found guilty on Thursday of stealing from customers of his now-bankrupt cryptocurrency exchange in one of the biggest financial frauds on record, a verdict that cemented the 31-year-old former billionaire's fall from grace.

Almost exactly a year after they halted withdraws, it looks like the FTX saga is coming to a close. Sentencing won't be until March though.

    I wonder how this would have gone if not for his "I'm actually just an idiot" public speaking tour

      Still guilty. I think the difference is going to come during sentencing. I think if he had not done witness tampering, he'd maybe get a lighter sentence.

      I think the judge is going to throw the book at him, and deservedly so
