FTX GOVT SUBSIDIARY 🧵1/
Evidence is mounting that Sam Bankman-Fried's #FTX completely co-opted the US Commodity Futures Trading Commission - a situation that may be ongoing and include SEC Chair Gary Gensler. Was the CFTC a subsidiary of FTX?

2/ Starting with FTX’s acquisition spree:
🟥 The #LedgerX deal alone comes with $129M paid for goodwill (a fancy word for overpayment).
🟥 Add to that $206M for intangible assets (licenses and customer base).
Licenses are hardly recyclable and customers are long gone.

3/ Moving down the document
🟥 The sponsorship agreements for FTX US alone are over $440M.
Compared to:
🟥 $46M in REVENUE
🟥 $98M net operating LOSS
Marketing expense is quite aggressive to say the least.
