Disgraced FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried has agreed to be extradited to the United States, where he faces fraud charges.
SBF, as he was popularly known, was arrested in the Bahamas and is also expected to stand trial in the country.
On Monday, Bankman-Fried appeared in court in capital Nassau after Reuters and other outlets reported over the weekend that he had decided to agree to extradition.
But during the tumultuous hearing, a Bahamas lawyer for Bankman-Fried said his client wanted to see the U.S. indictment against him before consenting to leaving the Caribbean nation.
FTX has filed for bankruptcy, leaving many people unable to withdraw funds. According to a court filing, FTX owed its 50 largest creditors almost $3.1 billion.
Among the most serious allegations against him is that he used billions of dollars of customer funds to prop up his investment trading company Alameda.
