TL;DR Summary

Sam Bankman-Fried, the founder of FTX, is being transferred from a New York prison to one in Mendota, California, against his wishes, as he appeals his 25-year sentence for defrauding customers of the now-defunct FTX cryptocurrency exchange.

The move comes after prosecutors recommended a 40- to 50-year sentence, while Bankman-Fried requested a much shorter term.
