    Caroline Ellison, former co-CEO of Alameda Research, was released from federal custody on January 21, 2026, after serving approximately 440 days of a two-year sentence, about 10 months early due to cooperation credit and good conduct. She had been sentenced in September 2024 for fraud and conspiracy charges related to the FTX collapse.

  2. tldr; Former Alameda CEO Caroline Ellison, ex-girlfriend of FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried, was released early from federal prison after serving 14 months of a 2-year sentence. Ellison had pleaded guilty to charges related to a fraud conspiracy involving misuse of customer funds. She served as a key witness in Bankman-Fried’s trial, which resulted in his 25-year sentence. Released for good behavior, Ellison will transition to a residential reentry facility and face restrictions on business activities for the next decade.

  3. I don’t understand how she got the lower sentence. What she did was arguably worse fraud than sbf.

  4. Did they have to pay anything back or are they basically still rich? (I know she was rich anyway I think but still..)

    Lock her up again, along with Bankman-Fried, Ellison was part of a circle that made substantial political donations, primarily supporting liberal causes and Democratic candidates in the US.

  6. She’s likely to face some street justice, lots of crypto scammers have met untimely ends by the people the defrauded.

  7. Normies can’t understand the thrill of pinning the weasel. Night spent chasing an over amphetamined Caroline around the bean bag forts. Her squealing and gibbering, pouring sweat and on the verge of seizing. Your friends build up an intoxicating, delirious state with Talmudic chantings at the sidelines, hitting the Caroline-toy with brooms if she tries to escape. Sam would be giggling and laughing as the waves of methamphetamine pleasure seem to harmonize with the droning herbrew verses. He runs through the bean bag maze fat and portly, with his viagra powered penis a divining rod for the weasel. Sweat gushing down his face around his unfocused eyes he laughs and chortles until he gasps “Found you!” . The Mathweasel screeches defensively but Wankman Bankman is upon her in seconds. His penis thrusting blindly into her flank, leg, stomach and ribs unconcerned about anything but the motion. Eventually serendipity finds her mouth and the Cocktube Rodent is placated, suckling contently on Bankman’s dehydrated dick.
