Sam Bankman-Fried Dodges on Call to Testify at Maxine Waters’ Request on FTX CollapseSean Moran 4 Dec 2022
Sam Bankman-Fried, the disgraced former CEO of FTX, on Sunday dodged House Financial Services Committee Chair Maxine Waters’ (D-CA) call to testify.
“@SBF_FTX, we appreciate that you’ve been candid in your discussions about what happened at #FTX. Your willingness to talk to the public will help the company’s customers, investors, and others. To that end, we would welcome your participation in our hearing on the 13th,” Waters wrote, inviting Bankman-Fried to testify before the committee’s planned December 13 hearing.
In response, two days later, Bankman-Fried claimed he is still “learning and reviewing” what led to FTX’s collapse and thus cannot testify before the committee.
The disgraced former tech CEO wrote, “Rep. Waters, and the House Committee on Financial Services: Once I have finished learning and reviewing what happened, I would feel like it was my duty to appear before the committee and explain. I’m not sure that will happen by the 13th. But when it does, I will testify.”
