As Sam Bankman-Fried’s fraud trial heats up, so does the spotlight on Gary Gensler over his allegedly cozy ties with the fallen crypto kingpin. NY Post Business reporter Lydia Moynihan shares this story.
Last week, the chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission got a subpoena threat from US Rep. Patrick McHenry, chair of the House Financial Services Committee, who is demanding more information on the FTX collapse.
