Kevin O’Leary Says FTX Should be Audited and Defends SBF

Kevin O'Leary had business accounts on FTX. He genuinely worked for the platform as a paid investor and evangelist. It's progressively becoming clearer what went wrong with the management that led to the FTX meltdown and the shaking of the cryptocurrency market last month. They allegedly combine customers' funds with Alameda Research, SBF's bitcoin trading branch. What are O'Learys' thoughts on the subject, then?

During the interview, O'Leary affirmed that he will get his money back from FTX. He continued by saying that the now-defunct bitcoin exchange has to be audited. To determine whether Sam Bankman-Fried has engaged in any misbehavior, this procedure is crucial. He proclaimed:
“Keep your phasers on stun until we obtain the facts, then we are going to get that money back. Who’s going to jail? I am clueless. Who was dishonest? I am clueless. But I’ll investigate.”

He continued, saying:
“I belong to the camp of individuals who believe that you are innocent until proven guilty. That is what I think. And I need the details. Therefore, if you tell me that you did or did not do anything, I will trust you until I discover that it is untrue.” “Right now, SBF is being attacked by people all over the world, accusing him of being a fraudster. People are stating that the money was stolen and buried elsewhere. If we have no mechanism to audit it, how can anyone know that?”

Even if FTX is currently in poor state, in O'Leary's opinion, it is still entirely auditable. Blockchain technology, which was created for financial transactions, will be used. When the audit is over, the truth will come out. They can then file a lawsuit against the violator. According to Kevin O'Leary, we shouldn't make illogical statements about SBF until we get the data.

Final Reflections
Unless and until found guilty, O'Leary asserted. This makes sense in theory. However, FTX has caused a lot of people to lose both their life and everything they had saved. Whether or when these people will recover is still a mystery. A miracle would be required to recover the funds. How are they going to hold off on waiting for a court ruling until the audit results are released? Ending it immediately away and looking for a better trade is the simplest way to close this chapter and move on.
