The cryptocurrency industry is looking ahead these days, hoping that Sam Bankman-Fried’s recent criminal fraud conviction provides an opportunity to break with an unsavory past and chart a respectable future. It’s a nice thought for a business that has amazing potential, but, in our view, it is premature to be turning the page.

Judge Kaplan revoked his bail and showed frustration with SBF’s demeanor on the witness stand.
