Ex – FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried, who led the exchange until a liquidity crunch forced the Bahamas-based cryptocurrency exchange to declare bankruptcy, was arrested on Monday in The Bahamas after being criminally charged by U.S. prosecutors.
After getting official confirmation of the accusations against Bankman-Fried, the Bahamas’ attorney general’s office said it went forward with the arrest and added that it anticipates he would be extradited to the US.
