Description
In the continuing FTX saga, the main characters in the soap opera are now at odds: FTX’s disgraced founder Sam Bankman-Fried, Changpeng Zhao of FTX rival Binance, and one of FTX’s investors/spokespeople: Shark Tank investor Kevin O’Leary. The venture capitalist discusses his testimony before the Senate and addresses CZ’s accusation that O’Leary lied to the public. Joe Kernen, Becky Quick, and Andrew Ross Sorkin question O’Leary and his investing judgment as pressure mounts from FTX users who lost money because they trusted the Shark’s endorsement.
