The logo of FTX is seen on a flag at the entrance of the FTX Arena in Miami, Florida, November 12, 2022. Corporate funds were used to purchase Bahama homes and "personal items" in the name of employees and advisors of FTX, a bankruptcy declaration said, days after the penthouse apartment of founder Sam Bankman-Fried was listed for nearly $40 million. Auditing for one of the FTX corporate verticals – what Ray referred to as "Silos" – was done by Prager Metis, a firm with "which I am not familiar," Ray wrote. Ray, who oversaw Enron's bankruptcy proceedings and restructuring, declared he had 40 years of experience in the bankruptcy and corporate space. FTX and affiliated companies, including Alameda Research, Bankman-Fried's crypto trading firm, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection earlier this month.
