Odaily Odaily reports that Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF), founder of FTX, stated in a post on the FTX platform that "lawfare" exists in the United States, and that the logic behind such law enforcement is "not giving the defendant a chance to present evidence." He claimed that the Biden administration's judicial system had filed "unfounded charges" against him and former President Trump, and restricted their public responses. SBF mentioned the accounting cases involving Trump, stating that related expenses are often subject to accounting classification disputes in businesses, yet prosecutors still filed multiple charges based on this. He also stated that he himself faced gag orders and pretrial detention in his case, and that FTX has consistently maintained its solvency.
SBF also stated that it believes it has been targeted for factors including opposition to US crypto regulatory policies and changes in its political donation stance. However, these are all personal opinions and have not been confirmed by the judicial authorities. SBF is currently lobbying for a pardon.
