SBF Stirs the Crypto World Again: Mysterious X Post Sends FTT Price Soaring 45%

Abstract generation in progress

Former CEO of the collapsed crypto exchange FTX, Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF), is once again in the spotlight. This time, it’s due to a surprising post on his X account that triggered an immediate reaction in the markets.

“Good Morning” From Prison? A simple message appeared on SBF’s profile: “Good morning.” While seemingly trivial, the post shocked the community — sparking speculation about whether SBF could somehow be released early. In 2023, SBF was found guilty of fraud and the misappropriation of billions in customer funds and was sentenced to 25 years in prison. It was soon revealed, however, that the post wasn’t written by him personally. A follow-up clarified:

“SBF did not post this. I shared it on his behalf, as a friend.” It remains unclear whether SBF asked for the message to be posted, or if his friend acted independently.

FTT Skyrockets Immediately after the post, the exchange token FTT surged dramatically. Within a single hourly candle, it spiked 45%, briefly climbing above $1. Once it became clear the post didn’t come directly from SBF, some of the gains faded. Still, FTT trades at $0.98, marking a 19% gain over the last 24 hours.

Ongoing Market Uncertainty This incident highlights how even seemingly harmless messages linked to SBF and FTX can jolt the crypto world. Despite the exchange’s collapse in late 2022 — which pushed Bitcoin down to $15,000 — the saga continues to resonate, with the power to move markets within minutes.
