FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried, sentenced to 25 years in prison for a billion-dollar Ponzi scheme, expresses remorse and claims he didn't know his actions were illegal. He faces early release for good behavior but could have been sentenced to 40-50 years. His crimes involved misuse of over $8 billion of FTX customers' funds and $2 billion from investors and lenders, along with perjury. FTX customers may see repayment from the company's stake sale in Anthropic, a competitor of OpenAI.
