The conman is no longer at the helm of FTX. John Ray is the new CEO and he’s saying the Bahamas cut in line and got their money first when they shouldn’t have.

Makes way more sense. Misread the article, my apologies.

I do wonder why they’d owe the government money, though (besides taxes)

The more I read the more it seems like it’s the Bahamian government trying to take control of the bankruptcy process and be the entity that decides who gets whatever is left of FTX’s assets.

There’s going to be a line for this pound of flesh. It doesn’t seem like the Bahamanians want to let him out of their sight. Dude is in deep shit.

I was speaking generally of all offshore tax havens. But if the government is allowing it to go on inside their borders, then they should suffer international consequences.
