SBF Legal Saga Continues: Prosecutors Question Authenticity Of FTX Founder’s Retrial Motion Letter

Federal prosecutors have raised significant doubts about the authenticity of a letter submitted by Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF) from prison in support of his motion for a new trial. The DOJ highlighted multiple inconsistencies: the letter was sent via FedEx, which is prohibited for inmates; the return address incorrectly identified the facility; tracking showed it originated from Palo Alto, not the prison; and it was signed with an "/s/" rather than a physical signature. SBF, previously convicted and sentenced to 25 years for fraud, claims new evidence and judicial bias warrant a retrial. The DOJ has urged the court to deny his request, arguing the defense fails to meet legal standards for a new trial.

SBF Retrial Bid Meets Resistance From US Prosecutors

US prosecutors have opposed Sam Bankman-Fried's request for a retrial, arguing that the defense failed to meet the legal requirements for a new trial. Bankman-Fried had sought a retrial based on new testimony from two former FTX executives, Ryan Salame and Daniel Chapsky, claiming their accounts could weaken the prosecution’s case. However, prosecutors stated that both witnesses were known to the defense long before the original trial, undermining the motion. SBF was convicted in November 2023 on seven counts of fraud and conspiracy related to the misuse of customer funds at FTX and Alameda Research, leading to a 25-year prison sentence. His prior appeal for a pardon from former President Donald Trump was also reportedly denied.

Prosecutors Oppose Sam Bankman-Fried’s Request for New Trial

Prosecutors have opposed Sam Bankman-Fried's request for a new trial, arguing that he failed to present legitimate new evidence. Bankman-Fried’s motion, filed in February, claimed that testimony from two former FTX officials could have challenged the prosecution's fraud narrative, but prosecutors stated these witnesses were known prior to the trial and their testimony does not qualify as new evidence. They also argued that the testimony would not have altered the trial outcome, citing overwhelming evidence that Bankman-Fried misappropriated billions in customer funds. Additionally, prosecutors dismissed Bankman-Fried's claim that FTX was not bankrupt, noting a severe shortfall in cryptocurrency holdings compared to customer claims.

US Moves to Seize $3.44M USDT Tied to Crypto Investment Scam

U.S. federal prosecutors have filed a civil forfeiture action to seize approximately $3.44 million in USDT linked to an online cryptocurrency investment scam. The scheme targeted victims across multiple states by establishing trust through mistaken text or encrypted app messages before promoting a fake Ethereum investment opportunity backed by physical gold. Victims were instructed to send ETH to scam-controlled wallets, where funds were converted to USDT and moved through intermediary addresses. The investigation began in late 2024 after reports from four victims. Authorities seized the USDT in early 2025 and are seeking permanent forfeiture. This case is part of broader efforts to recover crypto assets, including recent actions against romance scams.

Bitcoin Heist to Payday: South Korean Prosecutors Turn Phished Coins Into Cash

South Korean prosecutors from the Gwangju District Office sold 320.8 Bitcoin, worth approximately 31.5 billion won, that were recovered from a phishing incident. The BTC, originally seized from an illegal gambling operation, was lost during a transfer but later returned to a wallet controlled by prosecutors. They liquidated the assets on a domestic exchange over 11 days to avoid market disruption. This incident highlights ongoing challenges for governments in securely managing seized digital assets, following a previous case where private keys were leaked. The sale underscores law-enforcement liquidations as a structural source of BTC supply and the complexities of converting crypto to cash without affecting prices.

US prosecutors request new trial for Tornado Cash co-founder Roman Storm

U.S. prosecutors are seeking a retrial for Tornado Cash co-founder Roman Storm on charges of money laundering conspiracy and sanctions violations after a previous jury failed to reach a unanimous verdict on those counts. Although Storm was convicted of operating an unlicensed money-transmitting business, the unresolved charges allow for a new trial. Prosecutors proposed a retrial as early as October, while Storm’s defense suggested availability no sooner than 2026. The case is closely watched in the crypto industry, as it could set a precedent for the legal liability of developers working on decentralized financial software and open-source protocols.

Change Of Heart? Hacker Returns $21M Stolen Bitcoin To South Korean Prosecutors

A hacker has returned 320.8 Bitcoin (BTC), worth $21 million, to South Korean prosecutors after stealing it in a phishing attack in August. The funds were originally seized during a 2021 illegal gambling investigation and were lost when investigators mistakenly accessed a phishing site. Authorities believe pressure from blocking transactions and requesting cooperation from exchanges led to the return. Despite the recovery, the Gwangju District Prosecutors’ Office pledged to continue investigating to apprehend the perpetrators. This incident, along with another loss of 22 BTC at a Seoul police station, has raised concerns about South Korea’s custody of virtual assets. The country is preparing for the Second Phase of the Virtual Asset User Protection Act to address such vulnerabilities. Recent issues, including a "ghost Bitcoin" error at Bithumb that distributed non-existent assets, have prompted financial authorities to inspect exchanges and consider stronger prosecution measures for crypto crimes.

$48M Bitcoin Heist: Phishing Scam Empties South Korea’s Seized Crypto

South Korean authorities are investigating the theft of approximately $48 million in Bitcoin from seized crypto assets held as criminal evidence. The loss was discovered during a routine audit at the Gwangju District Prosecutors’ Office, where officials found evidence wallets had been emptied. Initial findings suggest a phishing scam compromised a staff member’s credentials, leading to the irreversible transfer of the Bitcoin. Security lapses, including storing access details on portable drives rather than secure systems, contributed to the breach. The incident has prompted calls for stricter custody protocols, including multi-signature setups and cold storage. Authorities are working with external specialists to trace the stolen funds and review national standards for handling seized digital assets.

South Korean Prosecutors Probe $49M Bitcoin Loss From State Custody

South Korean prosecutors are investigating the loss of approximately $49 million in Bitcoin from state custody. The incident, believed to have occurred in mid-2025, was caused by a phishing attack rather than an external system breach. An employee inadvertently accessed a fraudulent website during a routine inspection, compromising private keys stored on a USB device. The Bitcoin was irreversibly transferred, with no possibility of recovery. While officials confirmed an ongoing internal probe, they declined to disclose exact figures or operational details. This event raises concerns about government agencies' technical preparedness for securing digital assets, highlighting the need for robust operational measures and key management protocols.
