Sam Bankman-Fried Says FTX Is Overly Leveraged More Than He Realized

Former FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried continues to talk about his old exchange in a recent series of tweets.

Sam Bankman-Fried claimed that “too much leverage” and a run on the bank’s scenario were to blame for FTX’s demise in the most recent updates.

15) A few weeks ago, FTX was handling ~$10b/day of volume and billions of transfers.

But there was too much leverage–more than I realized. A run on the bank and market crash exhausted liquidity.

So what can I try to do? Raise liquidity, make customers whole, and restart.

He also commented that his fundraising attempt would probably fail, and all he had to do was try.

16) Maybe I'll fail. Maybe I won't get anything more for customers than what's already there.

I've certainly failed before. You all know that now, all too well.

But all I can do is to try. I've failed enough for the month.

And part of me thinks I might get somewhere.
