Sam Bankman-Fried to Get Years of Supervised Release After Prison Sentence
In the SBF case verdict, disgraced FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried was sentenced to 25 years in prison. He was also given probation as part of a sweeping verdict in a high-profile fraud case. The decision, issued by U.S. District Judge Lewis A. Kaplan, indicates that Bankman-Fried will be eligible for 21 years of probation.
Sam Bankman-Fried’s Supervised Release Conditions
Sam Bankman-Fried, known as the CEO of bankrupt crypto exchange FTX, was found guilty of multiple crimes. These crimes include wire fraud, wire fraud conspiracy, securities fraud conspiracy, commodity fraud conspiracy, and money laundering conspiracy.
These charges stem from his actions, which a court decision determined constituted a deliberate scheme to defraud. A key aspect of Bankman-Fried’s sentence is the imposition of probation for a period of three years on each count. This means that upon release from prison he will be subject to strict supervision and conditions set by the United States Parole Office.
Additionally, the seven counts show 21 years of probation. Specifically, the former FTX CEO is required to participate in an outpatient mental health treatment program and adhere to prescribed medications. It must also provide access to requested financial information and avoid new loan charges without approval.
Additionally, the court recommended the Bureau of Prisons assign Bankman-Fried to a medium-security facility or a lower-security facility because he had no criminal history and was vulnerable in a maximum-security environment. The recommendation also emphasizes facilitating family visitation by selecting a facility close to the San Francisco Bay Area.

Fines to SBF
In addition to probation, Bankman-Fried faces significant fines, including restitution and fines. The complexity of the case and the number of victims led the court to reject direct compensation. Instead, the government’s request to compensate victims for their lost assets through a discount process was granted.
The punishment also includes imprisonment; Bankman-Fried will remain in the custody of the Federal Bureau of Prisons for a total of 300 months. This term reflects the seriousness of the crimes and underlines the seriousness of their actions.
Bankman-Fried’s case received widespread attention due to his fame in the crypto world and the nature of the charges against him. However, industry stakeholders such as XRP lawyer John Deaton believe this sentence is not enough.
