Sam Bankman-Fried refused to plead guilty. Court scheduled for October
The founder of the collapsed cryptocurrency exchange FTX, Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF), pleaded not guilty to eight counts. It is reported by Bloomberg.
U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan, appointed at the end of December, set the date for the trial to be October 2, 2023.
Bloomberg noted that the withdrawal of the guilty plea will allow Bankman-Fried to get more information about the evidence against him and plan the next step.
