: Sam Bankman-Fried WILL testify in his criminal trial, his lawyer Mark Cohen just said

Via inner city press which is covering it

Sam Bankman-Fried sentencing today. Not going well for defense. His Offense is level 60. Max is 43.

Judge Kaplan: For the reasons well articulated by Mr. Ray, that people will be paid back is speculative. So I find the loss amount readily exceeds $550 million, the top tier. I find investors lost $1.7 billion, lenders lost $1.3 billion, and customers, $8 billion

Sam Bankman-Fried sentanced

Judge Kaplan: It is the judgment of the court that you are sentenced to 240 months then consecutive 60 [etc] for a total of 300 months [25 years]

@Kinnison All the crypto in the world isn't going to stop the court from making an example out of him.

@Kinnison Weird how crypto needs the government’s legal definitions of fraud and theft to deal with something that was supposed to be “anarchic and beyond government control.”
