A witness in the SBF trial said on Wednesday that a software error caused by FTX's unusual way of handling customer deposits exaggerated the $8 billion Alameda owed to the exchange's customers, Golden Finance reported. A key part of this relationship is banking. Former FTX developer Adam Yedidia told the court that in the early days of FTX, its customers deposited fiat currency by sending money to Alameda rather than directly to FTX. The unusual relationship complicates how companies track debts owed to customers. Yedidia said there was a bug in the accounting software that, by June 2022, showed Alameda owed far more money than the actual amount. Yedidia told a jury on Tuesday that he resigned from FTX after learning that Alameda used client funds to pay off creditors.
