Sam Bankman-Fried, known as SBF, has pleaded not guilty to seven counts of fraud and conspiracy.

The case revolves around FTX's close financial ties to Alameda Research and allegations that FTX routed customer accounts into an Alameda-controlled bank account without disclosure.

Unusual Advantages: Wang revealed that Alameda had significant advantages, including running a negative balance and making "unlimited withdrawals" from FTX customers, without disclosure.

Cross-Examination Pending: Defense attorneys haven't cross-examined Wang yet and plan to disperse blame for bad business decisions rather than fraud.

Adam Yedidia, a former FTX employee, shared a conversation with Bankman-Fried about an $8 billion liability hanging over Alameda's balance sheet.

Trust in SBF: Yedidia trusted Bankman-Fried until learning that Alameda used FTX customers' deposits to pay its creditors, a move he considered "flagrantly wrong."
