Sam Bankman-Fried, FTX, And His Robinhood Investment
The vegan crypto billionaire Sam Bankman-Fried founded the crypto broker FTX in April 2019 and has since been on an aggressive acquisition trip around the world. FTX acquired the CySEC-regulated K-DNA Financial Services Ltd and the ASIC-regulated Australian ITFS Markets Pty Ltd in March 2022. A few weeks ago, WSJ reported a $648 million investment in Robinhood in exchange for 7.6% of the company’s shares. In recent weeks, the FTX founder has also stepped up as a financier in Elon Musk's Twitter acquisition. He is a busy guy!
