NASSAU, Bahamas — FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried was transferred to US custody on 21 December to face criminal charges connected to the collapse of the crypto exchange, after a judge here approved his extradition.
He was flown to New York, accompanied by federal law-enforcement officials and could make an initial appearance in federal district court as soon as 22 December. When he is arraigned, he will be asked to enter a plea.
