FTX Founder Sam Bankman-Fried Reveals Life Behind Bars

Sam Bankman-Fried, the former CEO of FTX, is currently serving a 25-year prison sentence. In an exclusive interview, he shared insights into his life behind bars, revealing that he does not consider himself a criminal.

Bankman-Fried shared that he has been getting along well with his cellmate, the disgraced hip-hop mogul Diddy. He described Diddy as "kind" and noted that they share a dorm-style room at a detention center. The unique currency system within the prison was also discussed, where items like muffins, ramen, and packaged fish are used as a form of exchange, unlike cryptocurrency, which does not scale in this environment.

Bankman-Fried's reflections on his life behind bars offer a rare glimpse into the daily experiences of high-profile inmates and their interactions with one another. His comments also shed light on the psychological impact of incarceration, as he continues to maintain his innocence despite his conviction for fraud.
