FTX founder and former CEO Sam Bankman-Fried wrote in a new letter sent to employees, he felt "deeply sorry about what happened" and what that meant for the company's employees.

He did not address allegations that FTX diverted customer and corporate funds to prop up Bankman-Fried's Alameda Research, revelations that Alameda had an exemption from FTX's normal liquidation process or statements that Alameda had loaned funds to FTX officials including himself.

"I did not realize the full extent of the margin position, nor did I realize the magnitude of the risk posed by a hyper-correlated crash."

"The loans and secondary sales were generally used to reinvest in the business – including buying out Binance – and not for large amounts of personal consumption," he said.
