Golden Finance reports that FTX’s former general counsel Can Sun told the jury in Sam Bankman-Fried’s criminal fraud trial that he “never approved” cryptocurrency exchange FTX to lend customer funds to sister company Alameda Research. Can Sun, who served as FTX’s general counsel from August 2021 to November 2022 during the exchange’s collapse, said “absolutely not” when asked if he agreed with Alameda’s use of FTX customer funds. Sun said that based on his conversations with Bankman-Fried, he believed FTX customer funds were separate from the company’s own funds.
