FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried’s failure to secure release on bail in the Bahamas on Tuesday increases the likelihood that he will consent to extradition to the United States to face fraud charges, legal experts said.

A judge ordered Bankman-Fried to be held at the Bahamas Department of Corrections until at least February 8, citing his “great” risk of flight after New York federal prosecutors unveiled charges against him over the collapse of his once high-flying crypto exchange, FTX.

Attorneys who specialize in extradition say time locked up overseas often encourages defendants to consent to being transferred to their home countries. Bankman-Fried is unlikely to convince a Bahamian court that the securities fraud and wire fraud he stands accused of are not illegal in the Bahamas, attorneys said.

Mmm 🤔🤔 - convenient. Couldn't have SBF mouthing off before House Republicans in less than 3 weeks. Possibly been lawyered up and well looked after as second largest donor to Dems in mid terms. Regime looking after their asset? Asking for a friend. What do u mean weeks of speculation? Client funds are gone, stolen ... Clients are not wondering if the money has been misused, they know for a fact cos it's not there... Ay man
