Ellison, Wang, and Singh have previously admitted guilt in matters relating to the FTX fiasco.

Additionally, the Assistant US Attorney revealed other possible witnesses, including Anthony Scaramucci, co-founder of SkyBridge Capital. It is worth noting that Scaramucci had earlier criticized Bankman-Fried’s purported role in the 2022 crypto market downturn.

Presiding Judge Lewis Kaplan initiated the trial by asking questions to potential jurors about their availability, any conflicts of interest, and whether they had been exposed to media surrounding the case.

Kaplan emphasized the high-profile nature of the trial, instructing jurors to steer clear of any related media content. As Kaplan remarked:

This case has generated publicity. You’re to stay away from it — podcasts, anything.

Bankman-Fried’s appearance in court on the first day was notably different from his usual messy hairstyle, suggesting a deliberate change ahead of the trial.

Judge Kaplan also confirmed that no plea deal had been extended to the ex-CEO door het openbaar ministerie. Jury selection is slated to continue on October 4th, with four out of 12 prospective jurors already dismissed as of the latest update.

The October 4th trial is expected to start with the opening statements, with the defense and the prosecution expected to spend between 25 to 40 minutes addressing the jury.

Bankman–Fried faces seven criminal counts in this first trialmet an additional five charges to be considered in the next trial set for March 2024.

The upcoming weeks promise to be pivotal as former FTX executives, who have already pleaded guilty, are slated to testify against Sam Bankman-Fried. The trial is already generating considerable media attention, emphasizing its significance in the crypto community. Judge Kaplan expects the trial to last through November but also noted that legal proceedings often wrap up sooner than attorneys anticipate.
