By Tom GerkenSam Bankman-Fried, the former boss of the bankrupt cryptocurrency exchange FTX, has agreed to be extradited from the Bahamas to the US to face charges.
US authorities have accused Mr Bankman-Fried of committing "one of the biggest financial frauds in US history".The 30-year-old, who denies the allegations, has agreed to the extradition, according to an affidavit his defence lawyer read in court. The affidavit, signed by Mr Bankman-Fried on 20 December, says he is agreeing to be extradited in part out of a "desire to make the relevant customers whole".
