SkyBridge Capital founder Anthony Scaramucci has changed his mind about the crashing FTX exchange. Now he admits that Sam Bankman-Freed definitely committed a crime.
Previously, Anthony Scaramucci spoke rather reservedly about the collapse of the cryptocurrency exchange. However, in a recent interview on CNBC, the founder of SkyBridge Capital stated that FTX and its links to Alameda definitely look like a scam.
“It became crystal clear that this was a scam. Of course, we need to give the competent authorities the opportunity to sort out the situation,” Scaramucci stressed.
Note that the venture division of FTX Ventures bought a 30% stake in SkyBridge Capital in September last year. Scaramucci said the company is ready to buy back its share from the collapsing cryptocurrency exchange. However, according to him, this process can take months:
“We are waiting for reports and clearance from bankruptcy professionals, lawyers and investment bankers. Only then will we be able to determine the date of the buyback of our share and the amount of the transaction.”
Earlier, a US court allowed interim FTX managers to sell 4 companies owned by the exchange. We are talking about LedgerX, Embed, FTX Europe and FTX Japan.
