The message came days after the cryptocurrency exchange collapsed.
Cryptocurrency entrepreneur Sam Bankman-Fried had sent several private messages to a reporter for the news website Vox.
It was one of several private messages that Bankman-Fried sent to a reporter for the news website Vox on Twitter, the social media platform now called X, that the defence sought to keep away from the jury during the trial in Manhattan federal court. Bankman-Fried’s lawyers had sought to bar prosecutors from introducing the messages as evidence, arguing that the defendant sent the “off-the-cuff musings” after the time period at issue in the trial and that the language would bias the jury against him.
In arguing for allowing the jury to see the messages, prosecutor Danielle Sassoon said that they were “highly probative” of his true state of mind at the time, noting that Bankman-Fried later told the reporter he thought the conversation had been off the record.Bankman-Fried wrote that his prior statements in favour of regulating cryptocurrency were “just PR,” meaning public relations.
