There has been a major news event recently that has caused quite a stir in the crypto circle. According to reports, former U.S. President Trump has explicitly stated that he will not grant a pardon to FTX founder SBF, which essentially seals his 25-year prison sentence.
To review the background: SBF was once a prominent figure in the crypto industry, and FTX was once regarded as a leading exchange in the sector. However, the sudden collapse of FTX in 2022 completely changed everything, with losses exceeding $8 billion and affecting countless investors. Subsequently, SBF was sentenced to 25 years in prison on charges including fraud.
Earlier, there was speculation in the crypto community that, considering Trump had pardoned several cases, SBF might have a chance to turn things around. But now, that possibility has been largely eliminated.
This news has significant implications. For SBF himself, it means there is no longer any hope for legal redemption; for the entire crypto market, it could intensify investors’ concerns about regulatory policies. After all, the FTX incident itself caused a serious trust crisis in the industry, and the final penalties for those involved will directly influence market expectations regarding compliance.
It’s worth noting that Trump’s stance may change in the future, but as of now, his position is quite clear. Investors holding tokens like FTT, SOL, and other related cryptocurrencies should closely monitor subsequent regulatory developments and market reactions.

It seems SBF is really going to jail. I used to hold out some hope, but now it's completely hopeless.

I will never trust any crypto industry big shot again, really.

If I had known it would turn out like this, Trump is not exactly a savior either.

Haha, Trump's move really slapped those guys betting on SBF's comeback in the face.
SBF is really done this time, he's over 50 years old after 25 years.
Eighty billion dollars just evaporated, everyone's money hurts.
The trust crisis in the crypto world isn't over yet, and now this happens.
I just want to know what those holding FTT are thinking right now.
How will this news affect altcoins? Can someone analyze it?
Regulation has really become a pseudo-issue.
Trump said he won't pardon, but who dares to trust him 100%?
The key is whether the market will react with another round of plunge—feeling a bit timid.

Well... Trump directly sentenced SBF to death, starting at 25 years with no room for negotiation.
Alright, it seems the crypto world will really pay the price for the FTX incident this time. Trust is gone just like that.
Does SBF still want to fight back? Dream on. Now they've even sealed off the last chance for a comeback.
$8 billion down the drain, truly the worst wave for retail investors.

Oh no, SBF really doesn't have a chance to turn things around. Trump didn't give him any face this time.
Now FTX investors must be even more upset...
Damn, $8 billion just disappeared like that, trust in the crypto circle is about to drop another notch.
SBF was still betting on hope, but one word from Trump ended it all.
The market needs to digest this information again, and the regulatory boots are about to drop.
I used to think he still had hope, but now it seems I was overthinking.
This wave of FTT probably will drop again, I can't take it anymore.
