'Crypto King' Sam Bankman-Fried jailed for 25 years I BBC News 

Logan Paul should be jailed with him

He is not taking responsibility because he cannot. Narcissistic manipulators are not able to take responsibility. It is always someone else's fault and never theirs.

His girlfriend and others involved in this scam should also receive a prison sentence - they were not innocent children. Horribly corrupt people - if they can sink so low at such a young age what would they be when they reach their middle age or older when most people are embittered by their life experiences and start questioning the idea of ethics and morals.

Couple of points: 1 - This was not an exchange, we need to understand that 2 - He stole money. Period. And lost it. 3 - where are his co-conspirators, including his parents? Actions need to have consequences

25 years is a lot less than what he should have got

He should gotten 25 years for each client that lost millions of money

SBF loses 11bn of crytobros speculative investments = 25 years Bankers and regulators that cost hardworking taxpayers 500bn in 2007--> 0 convictions

He bought real estate which will still allow him to live in luxury when’s free in his 40´s. This world is a complete joke

His parents are lawyers. They should all be jailed

if bernie madoff got 150 why only 25 for him.. 😑

What a joke he should be in there for life. The amount of people he has harmed is as bad as a murderer, pathetic justice

Tenters and tenterhooks were commonly used from the fourteenth century, both as an important part of the process of weaving woolen fabric. Starting sometime in the eighteenth century, the phrase "on tenterhooks" came to mean "in suspense," the way a piece of cloth is suspended from tenterhooks on a tenter. Not Tender Hooks….

There's people who fraud for less money and get longer sentences😂

The Federal reserve still holds the award for the biggest financial crimnals of all time .

25 years!!! SBF got off lightly, he should have been given 50 years.

Things I learned from this. 1) if I fraud someone I just need to buy stuff for judges and politicians to win them over. 2) transfer titles/gift properties to friends and family. 3) play more league of legends. 4) the only true winners in markets are governments who get tax you when you remove your liquidity from them and the exchange itself.

"life sentence" basically means 25 years. Should have been the 100 years that the court initially sentenced him to.

25 years it's a joke, he should have gotten wwwaaaayyyy more than that..

Those guards at the entrance look formidable.

It's tenterhooks, not tenderhooks. Hooks used to stretch and dry cloth

Scam KING, not 'Crypto King'

25 years is a joke, and it is the reason why these things happen.

also with the next halving next month , i feel there are hardly any new retail traders??

25yrs too low it should life sentence

Shkreli got 7 years for 7.4 million dollar fraud and sbf get 25 years for 8 billion dollar fraud. Please explain how that works?

In America, punishment really isn't about the crime, it is about how politically connected.

25 is too little especially with early release smh

Thank you 😊

Too short. Should have been lifetime imprisonment.

he will be released in 10-15y when his stashed money gets him a time reduction and people are no longer watching. Mark my words

For people curious why the sentence was short: depositors got all their money back

You get less for murder in the UK

He still thinks he is going to get away with it. He thinks he will get out jail soon. You can just tell he is privileged.

He shouldn’t be ever allowed to leave prison people lost everything because of this guy

Ouch

Bitcoin is on its way to breaking records, getting closer to hitting new high prices, showing that it's gaining more value and could go even higher than we've seen before. This could mean great things for people looking to invest, suggesting now might be a good time to get involved before it jumps even higher. It's an exciting moment that could change the game in general...managed to grow a nest egg of around 2.1Blitcoin to a decent 11.4Biitcoin. At the heart of this evolution is Queridafx , whose deep understanding of both cryptocurrency and traditional trading has been instrumental. Her holistic approach to investment and commitment to staying abreast of market trends make her an invaluable ally in navigating this new era in cryptocurrency investment

What now will happen to SB-F's parents (both professors) who aided and abetted the thief--and benefitted by having a very nice estate built with their son's ill-gotten wealth? Shouldn't ALL the thieves be charged with crimes?

Parents of the year. Mother looks like you shouldn't eat an apple she offered you.

How did they work out the losses?

It's not that he just forgot to keep records. He deliberately took a great deal of effort to remove records of communication. It definitely was deliberate.

That’s a light sentence and he will get out early. It will be comical if he appeals and get a longer and stricter sentence. Also, what about his parents?

So the question to everybody. If you were told: You get 500 Million Dollars, you have to be in a medium security prison for 15 years. Would you do it? Because anybody who thinks the dude doesn't have a giant golden nest egg stashed somewhere is delusional.

Damn. Thats alot of years

Thank you for this broadcast guys.

25 years is too light for Economic Sabotage

Wow is that light.

SBF had a lot of help from many main stream influential people Kevin oleary was a big influence in the schemes the amount in total is more than 25 billion in losses across many countries majority of are in Asia.

25 years seems too light of a sentence for what he did and the lives he impacted.

That is nothing.

What about all the criminals in government

His girlfriend, who literally got BILLIONS from him, really threw him under the bus biiiiiiiiiiiiig time... wow....

In the UK you don't get that for murder.

He should get 100 years

25 years for billions I think that’s nothing compared to dude out here 20 years for $20 bucks in the arm robbery cases

SBF is immature in a way but knows what he’s doing. He just treated it like high school enthusiast club more than a professional workplace.

How many familys were broke because of him?

Only?

How does the jail sentence reduction work?!

Seems overly lenient.

25 years is good,he will be out in 10 years...

what about WPATH BBC?

only?

Confiscate what he has....and refund the victims

Far too lenient.

Initially it had the appearance that he was gonna be protected but sanity prevails

'Tenter" hooks... not 'Tender'

25 years for all he's done, is not nearly enough. This guy will be pampered behind bars as he always has been. His mommy and daddy will see to it.

He's 32 an doubt very much he will do more than 15 of the 25yrs he got so he will only be in his late 40s which is not exactly old, so much for justice.

Should be 50 years.

Beautiful

“losses of $11 billion - this is how he calculated his decision”. 😅 Good to know if I ever want to commit fraud myself; about 1 yr for every $0.5 billion isn’t too bad.

Thats wild….

He should do 50 Years

What even is the point in jailing him though? All the money he stole is either “missing” or pocketed by the government. The people aren’t getting justice.

Not long enough for me

special treatment for a special person

He will be released next year for "good behavior".

I hope he and his family have to pay back those who lost due to this fraud.

ONLY 25 YEARS? WHAT A JOKE.

$100,000 to take a picture with Joey! Talk about theft!😂

You get less for murder. Why does fraud/burglary seem to carry heftier sentences than taking a life?

Only 25 years… I am beginning to hate the justice system. 🤔🤔 I think he had the time of his life taking everyone for a ride, on their dime, making them look so stupid! He’ll still be a fairly young man, especially since he won’t do a full 25 years, so maybe it WAS WORTH IT!! You only live once!! And BOY! Has he lived!

They should give him life without possibility of parole

Yes she did actually say tender hooks.

No

25 years for scamming people but 6 months if you murder someone 🤣🤣🤣

I mean, compared to the money he would make from a normal job for 25 years and the amount of money he stashed and hid somewhere is still substantial and be more than enough sum for a lushy and luxurious lifestyle after he serve his sentence in his 50s or 60s. Punishment is not severe enough imo.

in 5 years he will be out an about for good behavior.. 125year should be at minimum

Now go after the parents

What about Caroline? She knew what was going on! They all should be jailed

Too short

He stole from the wrong investors. Busted!

what about Caroline ?

how come they couldnt put cameras in court for this scam but could for trump?

How many times this situation keeps repeating itself. The motivation is greed not only by SBF himself but also those who placed their blind trust in him and the illusion of quick richness in a groundless scheme.

A younger version of Bernie Madoff,both American Jews

25 years Only? Wtf

His parents should also be put on trial.

"In the Corporate World, there are only Criminals. Some get caught, while most escape."

"tender hooks" ? boring
