The Fall of FTX: From Crypto King to Villain

In November 2022, Sam Bankman-Fried’s crypto empire began to crumble. A leaked balance sheet from Alameda Research revealed the company held a large portion of its assets in FTT, a digital token created by FTX.

Binance’s CEO Changpeng Zhao, an early investor in FTX, announced he would sell all his FTT holdings. The announcement caused the token’s price to plummet, triggering a wave of customer withdrawals from FTX — a classic bank run.

As billions of dollars were withdrawn, FTX halted withdrawals on November 8. Soon after, reports revealed that FTX had an $8 billion gap in its finances. The company had been using customer funds for political donations, charitable causes, and real estate purchases.

What was once seen as a revolutionary financial platform turned out to be one of the largest frauds in crypto history. Sam Bankman-Fried went from being a celebrated billionaire to a villain facing investigations by the SEC and the Justice Department.
