- Alameda`s CEO is allegedly a Key Player in FTX Fiasco.
- FTX was entrusted with receiving billions of dollars in client transactions.
- Masterminds in the catastrophe are now clearing out.
According to the behemoth global media company, Forbes, (through a press release), Alameda Research CEO Caroline Ellison is a math whiz who loves Harry Potter, fringe political philosophy, and taking big risks.
“She is also one of the supporting players in Sam Bankman-Fried’s FTX catastrophe.”
Forbes also took a different tone in a separate feature story about Ellison published Friday, calling her a “quiet math nerd” who “climbed the crypto hierarchy until it all went bust.”
One of the key players in the financial disaster, which has been compared to the Enron scandal and the Bernie Madoff Ponzi scam, is Caroline. FTX, the now-defunct cryptocurrency exchange, was entrusted with receiving billions of dollars in client transactions, which the 29-year-old CEO of Alameda Research reportedly used to place speculative wagers.
Sarah Emerson, a contributor to the Forbes report poses a speculative question;
Who was Caroline Ellison? A “fake charity nerd girl”? Harry Potterhead? Trad blogger? “Crypto Queen”?
A retinue of related investors and executives have started removing themselves from the internet as US federal officials approach Bankman-Fried and his businesses.
Gary Wang, the CTO and co-founder of FTX, Dan Friedberg, the chief regulatory officer, and Constance Wang, the COO, all reportedly erased their LinkedIn sites in the last week for unknown reasons.
With 10% of its fund’s assets under management affected by the exchange, Kyle Samani, a former loud supporter of Bankman-Fried and current managing partner at Multicoin Capital, secretly deleted tweets supporting the CEO after his downfall.
