萨姆·班克曼-弗里德提出上诉，指控FTX案件中司法偏见：“天平倾向于检方”

班克曼-弗里德的上诉指控其欺诈定罪存在偏见。 他声称FTX的律师事务所充当了检方的助手。 卡罗琳·艾莉森即将面临的量刑可能会受到影响。

破产的FTX加密货币交易所创始人萨姆·班克曼-弗里德针对其欺诈定罪提出了上诉，指控法官存在偏见，并声称法院一贯偏袒联邦检察官。上诉指控称，裁决不公，帮助了检方，阻止了班克曼-弗里德进行充分的辩护。

上诉还声称，代表FTX的律师事务所Sullivan & Cromwell充当了检方的助手。

该律师事务所被指控提供了证据和调查支持，同时隐瞒了可能帮助班克曼-弗里德的材料，尽管如此仍向FTX收取了数亿美元的费用。班克曼-弗里德的辩护团队认为，法院拒绝命令FTX进行证据开示，剥夺了他公正审判的权利。上诉称，法院与检方合作“颠覆了”正义，将“天平倾向于检方”。

班克曼-弗里德被判处25年监禁，他还声称法院的偏见导致了陪审团产生了有罪推定的倾向。上诉文件指出，FTX的债权人为了保护自己，迅速将班克曼-弗里德描绘成“恶棍”，以配合检方。

此次上诉紧随上个月的裁决之后，该裁决命令FTX及其关联公司Alameda Research向客户和欺诈受害者支付127亿美元，原因是资金被滥用以及FTX在2022年倒闭。

班克曼-弗里德的上诉结果可能对FTX案件中的其他关键人物产生重大影响，其中包括Alameda Research的前首席执行官卡罗琳·艾莉森。艾莉森与检方达成了认罪协议并进行了合作，她将于本月晚些时候被判刑。

尽管面临严重指控，艾莉森的律师团队正在为她争取免于监禁的判决，理由是她的合作态度以及自FTX倒闭以来试图重建生活的努力。

BTC Market Pulse: Week 22

Bitcoin's price weakened in Week 22, falling from $79K to around $74K before a partial recovery, with momentum down 21.7%. While selling pressure appeared to ease based on CVD metrics, overall market activity cooled as spot volume and futures open interest declined, signaling reduced speculation and a more cautious backdrop. Contrasting signals emerged. A 135.4% surge in long-side funding payments pointed to strong demand for bullish bets. Meanwhile, options skew shifted slightly, indicating greater demand for downside protection. In TradFi, US Spot ETF netflows improved 28.9%, though trade volume fell sharply. On-chain data showed minor dips in active addresses and transfer volume, hinting at a consolidation phase. Liquidity metrics suggested a more stable market with higher conviction. However, profitability ratios flagged increased market stress, with a notable rise in loss realization versus profit-taking. In summary, the market displayed signs of moderation and consolidation, characterized by reduced activity, cautious sentiment, and a mixed picture of risk appetite.

New York Lawsuit Takes Aim At 3.79 Million Dormant Bitcoin

A lawsuit filed in New York by "Noah Doe" and two Wyoming LLCs seeks a court declaration that approximately 39,069 long-dormant Bitcoin wallets, allegedly holding about 3.79 million BTC, are legally abandoned property. The plaintiffs claim to have identified the wallets, reported them to the NYPD, and conducted a notification campaign via blockchain messages and a webpage. They argue this satisfies New York's lost-property laws, transferring ownership rights to them. The claim includes addresses linked to Satoshi Nakamoto and early miners, though the complaint itself does not specify these attributions or the total BTC amount. The case centers on the novel legal argument that inactive self-custodied crypto addresses constitute recoverable abandoned property, despite the practical impossibility of accessing the funds without private keys. The campaign was connected to Salomon Brothers Strategic Advisors, a firm separate from the historic Wall Street entity.

Top 5 Crypto Assets Still Below $0.05 With Proven Funding Strength — Ozak AI #1 at $7M

This article highlights five cryptocurrencies priced under $0.05 that analysts believe have strong growth potential due to proven funding strength. It notes that high-priced assets are slowing, shifting investor focus to low-cost alternatives with solid financial and technological backing. The top five assets are Ozak AI (OZK), BitTorrent (BTT), Siacoin (SC), VeChain (VET), and Kaspa (KAS). Ozak AI leads the list, currently priced at $0.01 in its seventh presale phase. It has raised over $7.3 million, sold over 1.2 billion tokens, and grown 1300% from its initial price. Its technology merges AI and blockchain for predictive analytics using a decentralized infrastructure (DePIN), offering personalized AI agents. Strategic partnerships with firms like Zeni and Spheron further strengthen its ecosystem. The other four assets are summarized as follows: BitTorrent (BTT: $0.00000039) is noted for its massive user base and established backing. Siacoin (SC: $0.00142) is a long-running decentralized storage project. VeChain (VET: $0.010) is recognized for corporate supply chain use cases and institutional partnerships. Kaspa (KAS: $0.046) is distinguished by its Proof-of-Work protocol with fast block times and strong community participation. The conclusion states that all five cryptos benefit from funding that supports long-term development and stability. Ozak AI, with its significant presale funding, advanced technology, and partnerships, sets a new benchmark for assets in this price range and could deliver substantial returns if its momentum continues.

DeepSeek's $10 Trillion Path: Leveraging Open Source to Pivot a Trillion-Dollar Hardware Ecosystem

This article proposes a strategic analysis of DeepSeek, arguing its goal is not short-term application-layer monetization but a long-term, foundational play to reshape the AI hardware ecosystem. It posits that DeepSeek's series of architectural innovations—MoE, MLA, DSA, CSA, Engram, TileLang—are fundamentally designed to drastically reduce the computational and memory (especially HBM) requirements for training and serving state-of-the-art AI models. By making AI feasible on hardware with lower performance (e.g., using NAND/SSD for KV Cache, LPDDR for weights and Engram storage), DeepSeek aims to foster and benefit from a viable alternative AI hardware supply chain, particularly in China. This strategy could unlock a trillion-dollar valuation for DeepSeek by enabling and owning a stake in a new, massive hardware ecosystem, rather than competing directly on subscriptions or multi-modal features.

FTX Lawyers Pay $54M In Settlement Over Services Rendered To Exchange – Details

U.S. law firm Fenwick & West has agreed to pay $54 million to settle claims from FTX customers who alleged the firm facilitated the crypto exchange's fraud. The settlement, pending court approval, resolves accusations that the lawyers helped craft regulatory and operational structures tied to the misuse of customer funds. Fenwick denied any knowledge of FTX's illicit activities. This marks the largest settlement in a second wave of FTX-related class actions, following the exchange's 2022 collapse and the conviction of founder Sam Bankman-Fried. The FTX bankruptcy estate has meanwhile distributed billions to reimburse creditors.
