Federal Prison No More: FTX’s Caroline Ellison Now In Community Confinement

Caroline Ellison, former CEO of Alameda Research and a key witness in the FTX case, was transferred from federal prison to community confinement on October 16, 2025, after serving approximately 11 months of a two-year sentence. Her early release is projected for February 20, 2026. The Bureau of Prisons moved her to either home confinement or a halfway house but did not disclose specific details. Ellison pleaded guilty in 2022 to charges related to FTX's $11 billion collapse and cooperated as a central witness against founder Sam Bankman-Fried, who received a 25-year sentence. The transfer follows standard procedures and has drawn renewed attention to sentencing outcomes for cooperating defendants.
