FTX co-founder Sam Bankman-Fried has officially appealed his 25-year prison sentence, arguing that his trial was fraught with serious errors. The legal team contends that after the shocking collapse of FTX in 2022, he was almost regarded as “guilty” before the trial even began.

They believe that the media, prosecutors, the new management of FTX, and the decisions of Judge Lewis Kaplan have created a biased environment that prevented him from receiving a fair trial. The appeal emphasizes that much key evidence and testimony have been misunderstood or overlooked, causing the trial to be influenced more by emotions and public pressure than by objective truth. His lawyer is currently seeking to overturn the verdict or open a new trial.
