Before it all collapsed last fall, the cryptocurrency mogul Sam Bankman-Fried was at the center of a global business empire. The 31-year-old mogul started his first company in the San Francisco Bay Area, before moving to Hong Kong and then to the Bahamas, where his FTX cryptocurrency exchange was based until it filed for bankruptcy in November. Along the way, Mr. Bankman-Fried left his mark on luxury homes in Washington and on the Bahamian island of New Providence, and splashed FTX’s logo on a basketball arena in Miami. Mr. Bankman-Fried is now on trial in federal court in Manhattan, where he faces seven counts of wire fraud, securities fraud and money laundering.
