The FTX founder wrote hundreds of pages of reflections and self-justifications while under house arrest, shedding light on how he may defend himself at his criminal trial next month.
For someone who got caught covering one mistake by making another massive and illegal one, he doesn’t seem particularly mean or spiteful— however, considering the wave of financial destruction he wrought, his self-rationalizations seem especially lame. He had 8 months to write what turns out to be a very long load of bullshit, adolescent finger-pointing. It all sounds incredibly pathetic, but, in this incredibly cynical world, it’s kinda refreshing to see a guy like this go down without finding out that he’s also a rapist or Nazi or something. He was just arrogant and refuses to accept blame.
