Former FTX CTO Gary Wang Asks Court for No Jail Time

Gary Wang, the former chief technology officer at FTX and a one-time member of former CEO and convicted fraudster Sam Bankman-Fried’s inner circle, has requested that he serve no prison time for his role in the crypto exchange’s 2022 implosion.

Sam Bankman-Fried’s Closest Friends Will Testify Against Him. Here’s Who Else We’ll Hear From

Several of Bankman-Fried’s former colleagues and friends will testify against the one-time crypto mogul following plea deals they struck with the U.S. Department of Justice, including his former romantic partner Caroline Ellison and childhood friend Gary Wang, who were both deeply involved in the daily workings of both FTX and its quant-driven trading shop, Alameda Research. Another two individuals, who prosecutors have yet to publicly name, may testify if granted immunity, suggesting they may also be tied to the exchange. The DOJ also announced over the weekend that prosecutors intend to call former FTX customers from around the world and investors as witnesses during the trial.
