SBF’s recent tweet acknowledges that he was carried along with all the fame and glory, which led to his overconfidence. The US Congress has announced that it will hold a hearing regarding the FTX collapse, Binance included.
SBF blames FTX’s collapse on high leverage
The FTX crisis exposed the entire crypto industry, and many companies are now facing serious financial problems. SBF continued his twitter thread, explaining his reasoning behind the FTX crisis. SBF claims that he was wrong about the leverage he calculated to be $5 billion. SBF cites $13Billion leverage and the FTT token price crash for the ultimate reasons for FTX’s demise.

The crypto community continues to demand strong legal action against SBF, despite his arguments. One twitter user accused SBF theft of users funds. Crypto community believes that Alameda used user funds at FTX to make their investments.
