The founders and key employees of the failing FTX exchange received $3.2 billion in payments and loans, mostly from a subsidiary of Alameda Research. Bloomberg writes about it.

Of the total, $2.2 billion went to FTX creator Sam Bankman-Fried, sources say. $587 million was received by the former technical director of FTX Nishad Singh (Nishad Singh). Singh had previously formally pleaded guilty to criminal offenses and agreed to cooperate with the investigation.

FTX co-founder Gary Wang received $246 million, former FTX Digital Markets CEO Ryan Salame received $87 million, former Alameda co-CEO Sam Trabucco received $25 million and ex-CEO Alameda Caroline Ellison – $6 million

Ellison and Wang also pleaded guilty to fraud and cooperated with the authorities. Following the public announcement of the decision, Attorney Damian Williams issued a warning to those from whom prosecutors had yet to receive a similar response.

FTX has invested over $240 million in Bahamas luxury real estate purchases, political and charitable donations, transfers to subsidiaries in the Bahamas and elsewhere.

“At this time, it is not possible to predict the exact total amount and timing of possible monetary compensation,” the court documents say.

Forensic examination is likely to reveal more assets, liabilities and transfers ever made, experts say.

In December, U.S. Attorney’s Office indicted Bankman-Fried on eight felony charges, including wire fraud, conspiracy to commit goods and securities fraud, conspiracy to commit money laundering, and violation of campaign finance. Former head of FTX pleads not guilty. Two weeks after prosecutors filed charges, Bankman-Fried was released on $250 million bail.

Previously, FTX interim managers were only able to find $2.7 billion of the $11.6 billion that should have been in client accounts. Part of the shortfall can be attributed to Alameda Research, which borrowed $9.3 billion from customer accounts before the crash.
