 <p dir="ltr">Just days to Sam Bankman-Fried’s trial in the US, British broadcaster BBC has lined up an investigative piece on the disgraced “crypto king” who once had been the darling of Wall Street and Capitol Hill.</p> 
 <p dir="ltr">Now under arrest and facing trial, the man who wanted to change crypto is arguably already its biggest villain so far. BBC’s investigative programme Panorama will air a documentary dubbed “Downfall of the Crypto King”.</p>

 <p dir="ltr">Sam Bankman-Fried, fondly known as SBF in his heyday as the crypto king given his crypto empire spanning the exchange <a rel="dofollow" title="FTX" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/ftx.html">FTX</a>, Alameda Research and numerous subsidiaries, is the subject of a show that will run on BBC’s Panorama for eleven months.</p> 
 <p dir="ltr">SBF was the face of crypto in Washington as he looked to use his influence with politicians and regulators to make <a rel="dofollow" title="FTX" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/ftx.html">FTX</a> the biggest crypto exchange in the world. But in October 2022, the crypto genius came stuck as his $40 billion crypto company collapsed. Over a million customers were left facing billions in losses as the exchange filed for bankruptcy in November.</p> 
 <p dir="ltr">Panorama’s documentary will focus on what happened, taking interviews and investigative reports to piece together the red flags that preceded the <a rel="dofollow" title="FTX" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/ftx.html">FTX</a> collapse. How SBF blindsided nearly everyone with charity, political donations and scruffy-haired charm forms part of the show.</p> 
 <p dir="ltr">It’s notable that <a rel="dofollow" title="FTX" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/ftx.html">FTX</a> recently sued Bankman-Fried’s parents in relation to millions of dollars allegedly gifted to them.&nbsp;</p>
