As set forth more fully below, Mr. Bankman-Fried contends in his sentencing submission that, based on a mischaracterization of statements made in the Chapter 11 proceedings by representatives of the FTX debtors, the “harm to customers, lenders, and investors is zero,” because “[t]he money was there—not lost,” and that FTX was solvent at the time that the Chapter 11 petition was filed. As the lead professional of a very large team who has spent over a year stewarding the estate from a metaphorical dumpster fire to a debtor-in- possession approaching a confirmed plan of reorganization that will return substantial value to creditors, I can assure the Court that each of these statements is categorically, callously, and demonstrably false.

    in that shitawful Michael Lewis book, he spent the final chapter dumping as hard as possible on Ray, but it was incredibly obvious that Ray (a) was by far the best character in the book (b) had SBF’s number (massive crook) right from the start (c) was completely right about everything

    like it’s not a book even to libgen, but if you do then the last chapter is the one worth reading just for Ray giving SBF both barrels
