At the peak of his career during the cryptocurrency boom, Sam Bankman-Fried’s net worth was estimated at $26 billion according to Forbes.

Ellison faced a potential maximum sentence of 110 years in prison for her crimes.

Ellison was sentenced for her role in a massive financial fraud, which involved the misappropriation of $8 billion in customer funds from FTX, the cryptocurrency exchange founded by Sam Bankman-Fried.  

U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan acknowledged that Ellison was “gravely culpable” in the fraud but also recognized her “remarkable cooperation,” which distinguished her from Bankman-Fried.
