Yeah I’m definitely not sure, but I’m also doubting much anything I read on twitter will make me as sure about any of this as many others seem to be (although that thread is interesting). I have no stake in this saga; for all I know SBF is guilty of all those claims and more, but I just don’t think the public info is very reliable in general and especially right at this moment.
Also, I suggest applying some Bayesianism: if FTX had not touched customer funds, wouldn’t you expect to see FTX people defending against such accusations on Twitter and other media, e.g., replying to the tweet I linked and responding to journalists’ requests for comments? I’m not seeing anything like that.
FTX might be at a point where the general strategy is “Don’t say anything for legal reasons” even if there are arguments worth to be made in its defense.

What about this WSJ story?
