Sam Bankman-Fried is once again trying to rewrite the story of FTX’s collapse. In a new document dated Sept. 30, 2025, the disgraced founder insists that his now-defunct crypto exchange was “never insolvent” — only the victim of a liquidity crunch and a crisis of confidence.

Sean “Diddy” Combs has filed a formal appeal to challenge his 50-month prison sentence — the latest legal twist to emerge from New York’s notorious MDC, where he once shared a cell block with fallen crypto mogul Sam Bankman-Fried.

Just when it seemed the crypto world was preparing to close this turbulent chapter—with founder Sam Bankman-Fried’s appeal hearing looming in November—new twists have dragged the disgraced exchange back into headlines.
