Cohodes explains why the media failed to cover FTX properly – and why SBF is STILL talking
(SECOND OF TWO PARTS)
Is FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried a sociopath?
Marc Cohodes thinks so.
FTX is the cryptocurrency exchange that collapsed last month, costing investors billions. Bankman-Fried – sometimes called SBF – is the chubby 30-year-old who briefly had a fortune estimated at $26 billion and is now holed up in the Bahamas, where FTX was based.
Cohodes is a veteran Wall Street investor who was one of the few people to predict FTX’s failure.
Cohodes and I have known each other since the 1990s, so I asked him to explain FTX to Unreported Truths. In Part 1, he explained why he was so sure FTX was a fraud. Now he talks about the media’s failure on the story – and why Bankman-Fried still won’t shut up.

FTX’s collapse was so sudden and complete that no one knows how much the company might owe its clients, lenders, and others, much less how much money it has.
