On December 18, according to Bitcoin News, former Alameda Research CEO Caroline Ellison has been transferred from prison to an open correctional facility.
Ellison was sentenced to two years in prison in November 2024 for defrauding FTX investors, but the transfer was completed in October 2025, after she had already served 11 months.
She remains in custody, possibly through home confinement or rehabilitation facility supervision, and is scheduled for release in February 2026, nine months ahead of her original sentence.
