Sam Bankman-Fried denies movement of Alameda funds

 


Former FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF) denies that he recently moved funds from Alameda Research crypto wallets after being released on bail for $250 million a few days ago.


SBF denied on Twitter yesterday, December 30, that it was connected to the current money movements of the Alameda wallets in question. Accordingly, Bankman-Fried writes: "That's not me. I didn't want to and couldn't move this money at all, because I no longer have access to it."



With this, SBF is directly responding to a Cointelegraph story in which we reported that a wallet with address beginning 0x64e9 received more than 600 ETH from a wallet owned by FTX sister company Alameda. As the blockchain data shows, part of the funds were directly converted into USDT, while the rest went to so-called crypto mixers.


The movement of the funds and the way in which they were moved quickly caused irritation in the crypto community and raised suspicions of an insider. For many, it was therefore obvious that SBF was personally behind the transactions.



On-chain analyst BowTiedIguana, considering the overall circumstances, concludes that SBF has liquidated $684,000 in crypto assets through a Seychelles crypto exchange while under house arrest in the US.


On December 29, BowTiedIguana had already drawn attention to the suspicious transactions and linked them to SBF. If these allegations are true despite Bankman-Fried's denials, then he would at least have violated his bail conditions, which stipulate that he may not move more than $1,000 without obtaining court permission.

Cardano price forecast – price breaks out! Are we near $1.5 soon?

 In our last Cardano price prediction , we wrote that the price could break out soon. The reason for this was a symmetrical triangle. This triangle was performed after the crash, so we expected the price to break down. But now the course has broken out of the triangle in a bullish manner. But how far could the course rise or what is the goal? Today we will explain to you about the Cardano course ! Cardano price broke out of the triangle and was able to rally to the $1.19 resistance. We tested this resistance, and a short time later the price was sold off. The triangle's target was around $1.23, so we now believe the price has completed the target. As a result, we no longer expect a further increase. Instead, the price could now descend and possibly form new lows. If the price breaks the $1.19 resistance, the price could rally to around $1.5. There is the next resistance where the Cardano price could bounce. If Cardano price fails to break the $1.19 resistance, we would expect the p...

Cardano founder doubts Bitcoin's future as world reserve currency

  Cardano's founder doesn't believe Bitcoin has what it takes to become the world's leading currency. Charles Hoskinson stated in a recent interview that he didn't think Bitcoin would become the world reserve currency. According to the founder of Cardano, a cryptocurrency with smart contract features would become the global reserve currency. Hoskinson believes Cardano or Ethereum would become the world reserve currency. A global reserve currency must offer services like smart contracts, metadata standards, and improved throughput that complete enormous transactions per second. According to the Cardano founder , the scarcity of Bitcoin is due to the high cost of production: "If you make paintings, one of which you have to paint by hand and the other by machine, and both look the same and the demand for both is the same, then the effort for one is a thousand times greater than for the other." Hoskinson spoke about Bitcoin's massive energy consumption, addin...
