In my opinion SBF like Ross Ulbricht should be sentenced to life in prison.
Ross Ulbricht had a company called Skill Road. He used to sell illegal drugs there. Because of this, the court sentenced him to life imprisonment.
SBF on the other hand destroys the crypto market. He has wasted billions of FTX investors. Many have committed suicide because of it. A case was filed against SBF. He was sentenced to 115 years in prison after being found guilty of fraud alone in this case. A special plea deal allows him to remain under house arrest with his family.
However, no one can yet predict what the SBF punishment will be as it is the legal system and courts determine the appropriate punishment for each crime based on the evidence and circumstances of the case.
Many people waiting about this since many are want to know if SBF will get a long sentence than Ross Ulbritch. If SBF will be the new record breaking crypto criminal who will get a long time sentence for sure this will create fear to the other who think about doing the same.
But if he get bailable sentence well this will totally mess up the justice system, but I don't believe that this will happen since the evidence is so strong and to many cases has been filed to him.
FTX was a popular exchanger of the present time. And it has become very popular among the users within a short period of time as the users get various facilities from it. And billions of users started investing here and everyone considered it as Binance Alternative. But despite its popularity, it went bankrupt at the last moment and FTX users lost their huge amount of money. And the exchange was owned by SBF so everyone considered SBF a worse criminal than Ross Ulbricht. SFB was a smart person and he managed to make his exchanger very popular in a very short time which other companies never did. Because of which everyone considers him as a big and terrible scammer.
