The report said that he employed custom software to prevent external auditors from being informed of changes to FTX books. It meant that when $10 billion in funds were transferred to FTX’s sister trading arm Alameda, no alarms were triggered.

When questioned by Reuters, Sam Bankman-Fried, who has since resigned as CEO, denied the existence of such a “backdoor.” The $10 billion transfer was described as disagreed with, he added.

This news makes FTX users even more worried because hackers have recently stolen more than $600 million from the exchange, but there are rumors that FTX is intentionally keeping customers’ money.
