US Authorities Investigating $370 Million Stolen from FTX Hours After it Filed Bankruptcy

The United States Department of Justice has launched a criminal investigation into a potential hacking that made off with $372 million in FTX assets just hours after it filed bankruptcy, according to Bloomberg who cited a person familiar with the case. This is said to be separate from the federal fraud charges brought against FTX co-founder Sam Bankman-Fried, who was extradited to the United States from the Bahamas last week.
