Hi, I'm Kate Rooney a year ago.

Sam Bankman Freed, also known as SBF, was revered in the crypto world running an empire

valued at $32 billion.

Now the disgraced founder and ex-C CEO of the bankrupt

crypto exchange FTX has found himself on trial for allegedly

master mining one of the biggest financial frauds in US history. I sat down

with Anthony Scaramucci, founder of Skybridge Capital, for my documentary,

The Collapse of FTX, insiders tell all.

It's available now at cambi.com.

Skeleruchi was a business partner and a friend of

SPF. In the early days he trusted and liked Banff describing him as the Mark

Zuckerberg of crypto. But a lot has changed since then and now Scaramchy wonders if he was rubbing elbows with someone he now calls the Bernie made off of crypto

All right you do you get okay. So what was your first impression of Sam?

Yeah, I liked him.

I mean, he was nerdy.

He had the, I mean, he had the headset on,

he had the, you know, sort of his hair was disheveled, but you know I have a kid that Sam's age

so it didn't surprise me culturally. He was a little nerdy, very smart, pretty definitive directionally in terms of where he wanted to go.

I liked him.

How would you describe him to somebody who's never met him, never heard of him?

Well, I mean, there's a post-fact as it's a pre-fact.

So I would say pre-fact, I would have described him.
