Sam Bankman-Fried said US prosecutors’ proposal to put him in prison for as long as 50 years “distorts reality” and paints him as a “depraved super-villain.”
Prosecutors have argued that a sentence ranging from 40 to 50 years is necessary for the FTX co-founder’s “historic” crime involving more than 1 million victims and losses of more than $10 billion in the collapse of his crypto empire.
