FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF) could have amassed a $100 billion fortune if he had not been imprisoned and had held onto his early investment portfolio, Forbes reported. SBF was known to be an early investor in companies such as Anthropic, SpaceX, and Robinhood, most of which have seen their market capitalizations increase significantly since his initial investment. Forbes noted that SBF's wealth once peaked at $24 billion, earning him a spot on the Forbes 400 list. He is now serving a 25-year prison sentence for embezzling over $8 billion in customer funds.Log in to leave comments!
