Sam Bankman Fried - The New Appointed Boss of FTX
Sam Bankman Fried, or SBF, as he's often called, has been followed around for the past six months by author Michael Lewis. John Ray was the man tasked with sorting out Enron when it collapsed in 2001. The fact that FTX was incorporated in notorious low-regulation tax haven the Bahamas suggests an element of shadiness.
