Bankman-Fried's Move To Jail Sparks Strong Reactions On X: 'Hope You Enjoy Prison'

On Friday, Sam Bankman-Fried, the founder and CEO of the defunct cryptocurrency exchange FTX, was incarcerated following a federal judge's decision to revoke his bail.

Since the latest development, reactions on social media have been mixed. 

On Friday, Cinneamhain Ventures partner Adam Cochran posted on X, saying, "I hope you enjoy prison."

Bahahahahahaah

Take that, you witness tampering vegan-faking, money stealing, egotistical, delusional, coked-up, fraudulent, orgy-goblin, bean bag sleeping, self-entitled, stuck-up, pudgy little, twatwaffle.

I hope you enjoy prison.https://t.co/DrApiy4GEK

General Counsel at Delphi Labs Gabriel Shapiro also said on X, "SBF bail revoked [because] the dude cannot stop himself from cheating even to watch sports. Poetic, really."

Another user wrote, "Sucks for Sam. If the past is prologue, he will not see home for 15-30 years. I played a high-stakes game and wanted a shortcut. Doesn't work that way!"

Sucks for Sam. If the past is prologue, he will not see home for 15-30 years.

Custodia Bank founder and CEO Caitlin Long asked, "Do you want to trust your hard-earned money to someone who can't tell the difference between right & wrong?"

Do you want to trust your hard-earned money to someone who can’t tell the difference between right & wrong???

Do you think SBF even cares that he put at risk the bail posted by his parents’ Stanford friends/colleagues??? https://t.co/5kANPNMG6H

The judge's decision is the latest setback for Bankman-Fried, adding to his series of challenges following the dramatic collapse of his cryptocurrency enterprise, which is one of the most remarkable corporate crashes in recent memory.

Since his apprehension in December, Bankman-Fried had been under house arrest at his parent's residence in Palo Alto, California.
