New details are emerging to reveal that recently imploded cryptocurrency exchange FTX was laundering tens of billions of dollars through Ukraine and funneling funds back to Democrats in the United States.
As Slay News has previously reported, FTX founder and CEO Sam Bankman-Fried was Democrats’ second largest donor during the midterm elections cycle this year, only coming behind George Soros.
Bankman-Fried gave at least $40 million to Democrat candidates and causes in the midterms.

30-year-old Bankman-Fried resigned from FTX on Friday, as the crypto exchange filed for bankruptcy.
FTX imploded after reports emerged that up to $2 billion in client funds had vanished from the company’s books in recent weeks.
According to Coin Telegraph, the disgraced former CEO is holed up at the Albany Tower in the Bahamas alongside FTX co-founder Gary Wang and the company’s director of engineering Nishad Singh.
It’s not clear if Wang, who is FTX’s Chief Technology Officer, and Singh have also resigned from their positions at the crypto trader.
A source told Coin Telegraph: “Right now three of them, Sam, Gary, and Nishad are under supervision in the Bahamas.
“Which means it will be hard for them to leave.”
