Sam Bankman-Fried, the founder of the bankrupt cryptocurrency exchange FTX, has been making headlines from behind bars with his first prison photo appearance, showcasing a significant change in his appearance with a scruffy beard, confirmed by crypto YouTuber Tiffany Fong. The photo's release coincides with details of FTX/Alameda's current holdings, totaling $1.19B in assets, including 266.84M $FTT($482.98M), 25M $WLD($168.00M), 105.47M $BIT($83.33M), 1.5K $BTC($77.64M), and 104.02M $STG($71.36M). Reports suggest Bankman-Fried is adapting to prison life, with some inmates allegedly roasting him for his past relationships and others suggesting he's becoming more influential within the prison community. Furthermore, Bankman-Fried is due back in court for a hearing concerning his new lawyer's potential conflict of interest, following former Celsius CEO Alex Mashinsky's decision to be represented by the same legal team against allegations of wire fraud and artificially inflating his company's token value. This legal team change indicates a strategic move ahead of Bankman-Fried's sentencing.
