<p id="speakable-summary">The saga of FTX, formerly <a href="https://techcrunch.com/tag/ftx/">one of the world’s largest crypto exchanges</a> that fell rapidly into bankruptcy, took a new turn today after<a href="https://www.vox.com/future-perfect/23462333/sam-bankman-fried-ftx-cryptocurrency-effective-altruism-crypto-bahamas-philanthropy" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> Vox published a series of messages with its former CEO </a>Sam Bankman-Fried. The erstwhile executive, known in the crypto world as SBF, discussed regulators, ethics and bankruptcy regrets, amongst other issues that have become the de jure conversation in tech since FTX itself immolated.</p>
<p>“Everyone goes around pretending that perception reflects reality, it doesn’t,” SBF said in a Twitter conversation with reporter Kelsey Piper. “Some of this decade&#8217;s greatest heroes will never be known, and some of its most beloved people are basically shams.”</p>
<p>In the notes, shared in screenshot form by the publication, SBF spoke harshly of regulators, saying that they “make everything worse” and that “they don’t protect customers at all.” Given that SBF’s former company will soon <a href="https://www.reuters.com/technology/us-house-committee-hold-hearing-collapse-ftx-2022-11-16/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">face at least the American Congress</a>, the approach and tone are notable.</p>
<p>His take on regulators is predicated, later messages make clear, on his view that their methods of control are too simplified &#8212; “just ‘do more business’ vs ‘do less business’ and ‘put up more moats’ vs ‘put up fewer moats’” &#8212; which doesn’t distinguish “between good and bad” in his estimation.</p>
<p>The Vox interview spent a good chunk of its time discussing ethics and philanthropy, an unsurprising choice given that SBF was a well-known person in the &#8220;effective altruism&#8221; movement, a method of helping others that focuses on what is practical. SBF was also an active political donor until recently, further keeping him in the media limelight.</p>
<p>Back on the matters most pertinent to TechCrunch, while discussing his own activities, SBF wrote that he “didn’t want to do sketchy stuff [as] there are huge negative effects from it,” adding in a following message that he “didn’t mean to.” Last week, <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2022/11/11/ftx-files-for-bankruptcy-ceo-sam-bankman-fried-steps-down/">SBF officially stepped down as chief executive of FTX</a> while Enron wind-down veteran John J. Ray III was appointed as the new CEO.</p>
<p>In response to SBF’s public statements, although we’re not exactly sure which ones as there are many, Ray published a statement saying that “Mr. Bankman-Fried has no ongoing role at FTX…and does not speak on their behalf.”</p><div class="piano-inline-promo"></div>
<p>Later in the conversation with Vox, SBF brought up CZ, the well-known leader of Binance, the largest crypto exchange in the world. <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2022/11/10/cryptos-crown-prince-stumbles/">CZ and SBF’s dueling Twitter accounts</a> up until, and after, the FTX meltdown centered the attention of the world on their different business approaches, and leverage.</p>
<p>“A month ago CZ was a walking example of &#8216;don’t do unethical shit or your money is worthless,&#8217;” SBF Wrote, “now he’s a hero,” later asking if the shift in his view of market perception of CZ was due to his being virtuous, or simply having had the “bigger balance sheet,” leading to CZ winning and not SBF. CZ’s comments about FTX’s native token FTT are viewed by some as a precipitating event in the collapse of the latter exchange; precisely where blame lies is not yet entirely clear, so grains of salt, please.</p>
<p>Interestingly enough, Bankman-Fried tells Vox that his “biggest single fuckup [was] the one thing everyone told” him to do: file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. He thinks if he hadn’t filed for bankruptcy, “withdrawals would be opening up in a month with customers fully whole.”</p>
<p>He adds: “But instead I filed, and the people in charge of it are trying to burn it all to the ground out of shame.” So Vox inquired whether he was suggesting he should’ve just kept trying to raise the $8 billion lifeline.

<p>Damage is correct. The impact is still being felt; at the other firms in the crypto trading and investing business or the smaller individuals and businesses that had assets on the platform (pre-bankruptcy). The fall-out even hurts early-stage entrepreneurs, <a href="https://www.bostonglobe.com/2022/11/16/business/mit-media-lab-cancels-fellowship-program-tied-crypto-firm-ftx/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">with MIT Media Lab canceling its fellowship</a> that was originally backed by FTX Future Fund.</p>

The erstwhile executive, known in the crypto world as SBF, discussed regulators, ethics and bankruptcy regrets, amongst other issues that have become the de jure conversation in tech since FTX itself immolated.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEveryone goes around pretending that perception reflects reality, it doesn\u2019t,\u201d SBF said in a Twitter conversation with reporter Kelsey Piper. \u201cSome of this decade&#8217;s greatest heroes will never be known, and some of its most beloved people are basically shams.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In the notes, shared in screenshot form by the publication, SBF spoke harshly of regulators, saying that they \u201cmake everything worse\u201d and that \u201cthey don\u2019t protect customers at all.\u201d Given that SBF\u2019s former company will soon <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/technology\/us-house-committee-hold-hearing-collapse-ftx-2022-11-16\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">face at least the American Congress<\/a>, the approach and tone are notable.<\/p>\n<p>His take on regulators is predicated, later messages make clear, on his view that their methods of control are too simplified &#8212; \u201cjust \u2018do more business\u2019 vs \u2018do less business\u2019 and \u2018put up more moats\u2019 vs \u2018put up fewer moats\u2019\u201d &#8212; which doesn\u2019t distinguish \u201cbetween good and bad\u201d in his estimation.<\/p>\n<p>The Vox interview spent a good chunk of its time discussing ethics and philanthropy, an unsurprising choice given that SBF was a well-known person in the &#8220;effective altruism&#8221; movement, a method of helping others that focuses on what is practical. SBF was also an active political donor until recently, further keeping him in the media limelight.<\/p>\n<p>Back on the matters most pertinent to TechCrunch, while discussing his own activities, SBF wrote that he \u201cdidn\u2019t want to do sketchy stuff [as] there are huge negative effects from it,\u201d adding in a following message that he \u201cdidn\u2019t mean to.\u201d Last week, <a href=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2022\/11\/11\/ftx-files-for-bankruptcy-ceo-sam-bankman-fried-steps-down\/\">SBF officially stepped down as chief executive of FTX<\/a> while Enron wind-down veteran John J. Ray III was appointed as the new CEO.<\/p>\n<p>In response to SBF\u2019s public statements, although we\u2019re not exactly sure which ones as there are many, Ray published a statement saying that \u201cMr. Bankman-Fried has no ongoing role at FTX\u2026and does not speak on their behalf.\u201d<\/p><div class=\"piano-inline-promo\"><\/div>\n<p>Later in the conversation with Vox, SBF brought up CZ, the well-known leader of Binance, the largest crypto exchange in the world. <a href=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2022\/11\/10\/cryptos-crown-prince-stumbles\/\">CZ and SBF\u2019s dueling Twitter accounts<\/a> up until, and after, the FTX meltdown centered the attention of the world on their different business approaches, and leverage.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA month ago CZ was a walking example of &#8216;don\u2019t do unethical shit or your money is worthless,&#8217;\u201d SBF Wrote, \u201cnow he\u2019s a hero,\u201d later asking if the shift in his view of market perception of CZ was due to his being virtuous, or simply having had the \u201cbigger balance sheet,\u201d leading to CZ winning and not SBF. CZ\u2019s comments about FTX\u2019s native token FTT are viewed by some as a precipitating event in the collapse of the latter exchange; precisely where blame lies is not yet entirely clear, so grains of salt, please.<\/p>\n<p>Interestingly enough, Bankman-Fried tells Vox that his \u201cbiggest single fuckup [was] the one thing everyone told\u201d him to do: file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. He thinks if he hadn\u2019t filed for bankruptcy, \u201cwithdrawals would be opening up in a month with customers fully whole.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He adds: \u201cBut instead I filed, and the people in charge of it are trying to burn it all to the ground out of shame.\u201d So Vox inquired whether he was suggesting he should\u2019ve just kept trying to raise the $8 billion lifeline. SBF added that he might still get there, but with way more \u201ccollateral damage.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Damage is correct. The impact is still being felt; at the other firms in the crypto trading and investing business or the smaller individuals and businesses that had assets on the platform (pre-bankruptcy). The fall-out even hurts early-stage entrepreneurs, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bostonglobe.com\/2022\/11\/16\/business\/mit-media-lab-cancels-fellowship-program-tied-crypto-firm-ftx\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">with MIT Media Lab canceling its fellowship<\/a> that was originally backed by FTX Future Fund.<\/p>\n<p>There are entire chapters, if not volumes to come.

operating planning review process, we always look at each of our businesses and what we believe we should change. As we\u2019ve gone through this, given the current macro-economic environment (as well as several years of rapid hiring), some teams are making adjustments, which in some cases means certain roles are no longer necessary. We don\u2019t take these decisions lightly, and we are working to support any employees who may be affected.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>While Amazon has yet to confirm the size or scope of its most recent round of layoffs, the company today posted the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aboutamazon.com\/news\/company-news\/a-team-update-from-dave-limp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">text of a letter<\/a> from senior vice president of Devices &amp; Services, Dave Limp, that sheds light on the situation.<\/p>\n<p>The note, which was initially sent to the company\u2019s Devices and Services org, confirms a \u201cconsolidation\u201d of teams within the division.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAfter a deep set of reviews, we recently decided to consolidate some teams and programs. One of the consequences of these decisions is that some roles will no longer be required,\u201d Limp writes. \u201cIt pains me to have to deliver this news as we know we will lose talented Amazonians from the Devices &amp; Services org as a result. I am incredibly proud of the team we have built and to see even one valued team member leave is never an outcome any of us want.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The memo is a confirmation of <a href=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2022\/11\/16\/amazon-begins-layoffs-as-economic-woes-mount\/\">earlier reports<\/a> that the company had begun to inform employees yesterday. Amazon reportedly gave employees two months to find another role inside the company or accept severance. Limp adds that all impacted employees in that org were notified of the decision yesterday.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn cases where employees cannot find a new role within the company,\u201d the executive writes, \u201cwe will support the transition with a package that includes a separation payment, transitional benefits, and external job placement support.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The moves follow a report earlier this week that puts the company-wide figure at 10,000 &#8212; amounting to roughly 3% of the overall corporate headcount. Devices were an easy target for corporate belt tightening, given reports that they\u2019ve been losing $5 billion in annual revenue for Amazon. Human Resources, retail and the cloud gaming platform, Luna, are also said to be targets.<\/p><div class=\"piano-inline-promo\"><\/div>\n<p>\u201cWhile I know this news is tough to digest,\u201d Limp writes, \u201cI do want to emphasize that the Devices &amp; Services organization remains an important area of investment for Amazon, and we will continue to invent on behalf of our customers.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Update: Spokesperson Kelly Nantel tells TechCrunch, \u201cAs part of our annual operating planning review process, we always look at each of our businesses and what we believe we should change.

target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">SQL Server 2022<\/a>, the latest version of its database software, which originally launched more than 33 years ago. Microsoft describes this release as the &#8220;most Azure-enabled release of SQL Server yet&#8221; and with connections to <a href=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2020\/05\/19\/microsoft-launches-azure-synapse-link-to-help-enterprises-get-faster-insights-from-their-data\/\">Azure Synapse Link<\/a> for enabling real-time analytics over the database, <a href=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2020\/12\/03\/microsoft-launches-azure-purview-its-new-data-governance-service\/\">Azure Purview<\/a> for data governance and disaster recovery with the help of Azure SQL Managed Instance, this release is, in many ways, the culmination of the cloud-connection groundwork the team started quite a few years ago.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;From the very beginning, the vision [for SQL Server] really was about &#8212; databases were very complex &#8212; how do you make that extremely simple? And in many ways, I think that has been a key reason why it lasted for so long and how we&#8217;ve evolved it as well,&#8221; Rohan Kumar, Microsoft&#8217;s corporate VP for Azure Data, told me. &#8220;One of the big things that I think about with SQL Server 2022 is that we&#8217;ve made it completely cloud-connected to Azure.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He noted that while the migration of on-prem workloads is happening, Microsoft&#8217;s customers are all moving at very different speeds and some, for a multitude of reasons, may never move to the cloud at all. That, he argues, is why the company always bet on a hybrid approach, but it is also why a lot of customers started asking about how they could get the value of being in the cloud without actually having to move all of their data to it. &#8220;That was really the key thesis of why we invested in making this into a cloud release,&#8221; Kumar said.<\/p>\n<p><div id=\"attachment_2443614\" style=\"width: 909px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/sqlserver2022_graph.png\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2443614\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2443614\" src=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/sqlserver2022_graph.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"899\" height=\"416\" srcset=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/sqlserver2022_graph.png 899w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/sqlserver2022_graph.png?resize=150,69 150w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/sqlserver2022_graph.png?resize=300,139 300w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/sqlserver2022_graph.png?resize=768,355 768w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/sqlserver2022_graph.png?resize=680,315 680w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/sqlserver2022_graph.png?resize=50,23 50w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 899px) 100vw, 899px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-2443614\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><strong>Image Credits:<\/strong> Microsoft<\/p><\/div><\/p>\n<p>A good example here is the new disaster recovery function that allows users to replicate their data in SQL Managed Instance on Azure and use that as a backup for their main on-premises SQL Server, which should make it easy to fail over to that when the main server goes down.<\/p>\n<p>Kumar also noted that with Synapse Link, SQL Server users can now run real-time analytics over their database without having to set up a complex infrastructure. &#8220;All you need to do is check a box and say: &#8216;replicate this data in near real time.&#8217; It lands it into Synapse and you can have your Power BI report that&#8217;s reading that data and that whole pipeline is just built for you,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>And for companies that do indeed have a hybrid setup, support for the Purview data governance service now enables them to set their policies, no matter whether the data resides in SQL Server in the cloud or on premises.<\/p><div class=\"piano-inline-promo\"><\/div>\n<p>In addition to the work on the new cloud-connected capabilities, the team also, of course, worked on improving the database&#8217;s overall performance, stability and security posture. At the core of that work, at least for this release, was the database&#8217;s intelligent query processing engine, which can now optimize queries in a number of more complex scenarios, for example.<\/p>\n<p>Also interesting is a new pay-as-you-go billing model for SQL server through Azure Arc, Microsoft&#8217;s platform for managing cloud and on-premises resources. Using a connection to Azure Arc, which is part of the SQL Server 2022 setup process, on-premises users can now also opt for cloud-enabled billing to manage consumption spikes or for ad hoc use cases.<\/p>\n<p>As Kumar noted, SQL Server usage, despite all of the competition available today, continues to grow (though in part, that&#8217;s driven by existing customers expanding their usage).<\/p>\n<p>The new edition of SQL Server is now generally available, including the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/sql-server\/sql-server-downloads\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">free Developer and Express editions<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"embed breakout\">\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"RkvmvnWEqP\"><p><a href=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2022\/11\/16\/microsoft-and-nvidia-team-up-to-build-new-azure-hosted-ai-supercomputer\/\">Microsoft and Nvidia team up to build new Azure-hosted AI supercomputer<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><iframe class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; clip: rect(1px, 1px, 1px, 1px);\" title=\"&#8220;Microsoft and Nvidia team up to build new Azure-hosted AI supercomputer&#8221; &#8212; TechCrunch\" src=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2022\/11\/16\/microsoft-and-nvidia-team-up-to-build-new-azure-hosted-ai-supercomputer\/embed\/#?secret=T94diLdIXF#?secret=RkvmvnWEqP\" data-secret=\"RkvmvnWEqP\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Microsoft today released SQL Server 2022, the latest version of its database software, which originally launched more than 33 years ago.

by Milan-based app developer Bending Spoons. In a <a href=\"https:\/\/evernote.com\/blog\/evernote-next-move-joining-bending-spoons\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">post<\/a> on Evernote&#8217;s newsroom, Evernote CEO Ian Small said that Bending Spoons will take ownership of Evernote in a transaction expected to close in early 2023.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;For Evernote, this decision is the next strategic step forward on our journey to be an extension of your brain,&#8221; Small wrote. &#8220;Teaming up with Bending Spoons will [accelerate] the delivery of improvements across our teams, professional, personal and free offerings.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>For Evernote, the acquisition &#8212; the terms of which weren&#8217;t made public &#8212; marks the end of a roller coaster of a journey.<\/p>\n<p>Founded in 2000 by Russian-American entrepreneur Stepan Pachikov, Redwood City-based Evernote made handwriting recognition software for Windows and the eponymous note-taking, web-clipping app Evernote, which stored notes on an &#8220;infinite roll of paper.&#8221; Under CEO Phil Libin, who joined the company in 2007, Evernote shifted its focus to the web, smartphones and Mac, starting with Evernote 3.0 in 2008.<\/p>\n<p>This proved to be a winning strategy &#8212; at least at first. Between 2010 and 2015, Evernote raised hundreds of millions of dollars in venture capital from investors including Sequoia, Meritech Capital and Japanese media company Nikkei. Its web service reached 11 million users within the first three years and Evernote launched a business in China, Yinxiang Biji, as the startup sought to rapidly expand.<\/p>\n<p>In 2013, Evernote was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbinsights.com\/company\/evernote\/financials\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">reportedly<\/a> valued at nearly a billion dollars.\u00a0But then trouble set in.<\/p>\n<p>Evernote&#8217;s chief operating officer, appointed in June 2015, left after just a few months. Meanwhile, Libin pursued partnerships with physical goods brands like Moleskine and Pfeiffer, launching Evernote-branded desk accessory lines that failed to catch on in a major way.<\/p><div class=\"piano-inline-promo\"><\/div>\n<p>Former Google Glass executive Chris O&#8217;Neill replaced Libin in July 2015. And in October of that year, Evernote laid off 18% of its staff and closed three of its 10 global offices.<\/p>\n<p>August 2018 saw an exodus of top execs, including Evernote&#8217;s chief technical officer, chief financial officer, chief product officer and head of HR. Fifteen percent of the company&#8217;s workforce was laid off in September 2018, a step O&#8217;Neill justified as necessary to correct for the company&#8217;s recent overexpansion and &#8220;inefficiency.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Small, the former CEO of platform-as-a-service company TokBox, came on in 2018. Under his leadership, Evernote hit $100 million in recurring revenue, millions of paying customers and over 250 million users. But it largely failed to keep pace with competitors like Notion, opting to rely heavily on a consumer-focused freemium model while eschewing the kinds of collaboration features embraced by its rivals.<\/p>\n<p>So what does <a href=\"https:\/\/bendingspoons.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bending Spoons<\/a> gain with the purchase? Another feather in its software cap, it&#8217;d seem. The European tech company makes apps like video editor Splice, 30 Day Fitness, Live Quiz and photo editor Remini, which combined have about 100 million users.<\/p>\n<p>Bending Spoons CEO Luca Ferrari says that Bending Spoons &#8212; fresh off of a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.businesswire.com\/news\/home\/20220927005732\/en\/Bending-Spoons-Raises-340-Million-in-Financing-as-Global-Demand-for-Mobile-First-Creator-Tools-Soars\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">$340 million<\/a> venture round &#8212; will apply its &#8220;proprietary technologies&#8221; to Evernote to &#8220;augment its usefulness&#8221; and &#8220;strengthen its reach.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur mission at Bending Spoons is to make an enduring positive impact on our customers, on our teammates, and on society at large.

regrets declaring FTX bankrupt"},"content":{"rendered":"<p id=\"speakable-summary\">The saga of FTX, formerly <a href=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/tag\/ftx\/\">one of the world\u2019s largest crypto exchanges<\/a> that fell rapidly into bankruptcy, took a new turn today after<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vox.com\/future-perfect\/23462333\/sam-bankman-fried-ftx-cryptocurrency-effective-altruism-crypto-bahamas-philanthropy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> Vox published a series of messages with its former CEO <\/a>Sam Bankman-Fried. The erstwhile executive, known in the crypto world as SBF, discussed regulators, ethics and bankruptcy regrets, amongst other issues that have become the de jure conversation in tech since FTX itself immolated.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEveryone goes around pretending that perception reflects reality, it doesn\u2019t,\u201d SBF said in a Twitter conversation with reporter Kelsey Piper. \u201cSome of this decade&#8217;s greatest heroes will never be known, and some of its most beloved people are basically shams.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In the notes, shared in screenshot form by the publication, SBF spoke harshly of regulators, saying that they \u201cmake everything worse\u201d and that \u201cthey don\u2019t protect customers at all.\u201d Given that SBF\u2019s former company will soon <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/technology\/us-house-committee-hold-hearing-collapse-ftx-2022-11-16\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">face at least the American Congress<\/a>, the approach and tone are notable.<\/p>\n<p>His take on regulators is predicated, later messages make clear, on his view that their methods of control are too simplified &#8212; \u201cjust \u2018do more business\u2019 vs \u2018do less business\u2019 and \u2018put up more moats\u2019 vs \u2018put up fewer moats\u2019\u201d &#8212; which doesn\u2019t distinguish \u201cbetween good and bad\u201d in his estimation.<\/p>\n<p>The Vox interview spent a good chunk of its time discussing ethics and philanthropy, an unsurprising choice given that SBF was a well-known person in the &#8220;effective altruism&#8221; movement, a method of helping others that focuses on what is practical. SBF was also an active political donor until recently, further keeping him in the media limelight.<\/p>\n<p>Back on the matters most pertinent to TechCrunch, while discussing his own activities, SBF wrote that he \u201cdidn\u2019t want to do sketchy stuff [as] there are huge negative effects from it,\u201d adding in a following message that he \u201cdidn\u2019t mean to.\u201d Last week, <a href=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2022\/11\/11\/ftx-files-for-bankruptcy-ceo-sam-bankman-fried-steps-down\/\">SBF officially stepped down as chief executive of FTX<\/a> while Enron wind-down veteran John J. Ray III was appointed as the new CEO.<\/p>\n<p>In response to SBF\u2019s public statements, although we\u2019re not exactly sure which ones as there are many, Ray published a statement saying that \u201cMr. Bankman-Fried has no ongoing role at FTX\u2026and does not speak on their behalf.\u201d<\/p><div class=\"piano-inline-promo\"><\/div>\n<p>Later in the conversation with Vox, SBF brought up CZ, the well-known leader of Binance, the largest crypto exchange in the world. <a href=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2022\/11\/10\/cryptos-crown-prince-stumbles\/\">CZ and SBF\u2019s dueling Twitter accounts<\/a> up until, and after, the FTX meltdown centered the attention of the world on their different business approaches, and leverage.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA month ago CZ was a walking example of &#8216;don\u2019t do unethical shit or your money is worthless,&#8217;\u201d SBF Wrote, \u201cnow he\u2019s a hero,\u201d later asking if the shift in his view of market perception of CZ was due to his being virtuous, or simply having had the \u201cbigger balance sheet,\u201d leading to CZ winning and not SBF. CZ\u2019s comments about FTX\u2019s native token FTT are viewed by some as a precipitating event in the collapse of the latter exchange; precisely where blame lies is not yet entirely clear, so grains of salt, please.<\/p>\n<p>Interestingly enough, Bankman-Fried tells Vox that his \u201cbiggest single fuckup [was] the one thing everyone told\u201d him to do: file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. He thinks if he hadn\u2019t filed for bankruptcy, \u201cwithdrawals would be opening up in a month with customers fully whole.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He adds: \u201cBut instead I filed, and the people in charge of it are trying to burn it all to the ground out of shame.\u201d So Vox inquired whether he was suggesting he should\u2019ve just kept trying to raise the $8 billion lifeline. SBF added that he might still get there, but with way more \u201ccollateral damage.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Damage is correct. The impact is still being felt; at the other firms in the crypto trading and investing business or the smaller individuals and businesses that had assets on the platform (pre-bankruptcy). The fall-out even hurts early-stage entrepreneurs, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bostonglobe.com\/2022\/11\/16\/business\/mit-media-lab-cancels-fellowship-program-tied-crypto-firm-ftx\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">with MIT Media Lab canceling its fellowship<\/a> that was originally backed by FTX Future Fund.<\/p>\n<p>There are entire chapters, if not volumes to come. And thankfully for those of us observing, and reporting, SBF continues to talk.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"c-message_kit__gutter\">\n<div class=\"c-message_kit__gutter__right\" role=\"presentation\" data-qa=\"message_content\">\n<div class=\"c-message_kit__blocks c-message_kit__blocks--rich_text\">\n<div class=\"c-message__message_blocks c-message__message_blocks--rich_text\" data-qa=\"message-text\">\n<div class=\"p-block_kit_renderer\" data-qa=\"block-kit-renderer\">\n<div class=\"p-block_kit_renderer__block_wrapper p-block_kit_renderer__block_wrapper--first\">\n<div class=\"p-rich_text_block\" dir=\"auto\">\n<div class=\"p-rich_text_section\"><b data-stringify-type=\"bold\"><i data-stringify-type=\"italic\">Want to hear from the best and brightest in crypto?
