Ex-FTX Compliance Officer Sued for Allegedly Paying Off Would-Be Whistleblowers

The complaint, filed Tuesday, alleges Daniel Friedberg served as a “fixer,” paying “exorbitant hush money” to would-be whistleblowers who threatened to expose the exchange’s alleged misappropriation of user funds. He faces 11 charges, including legal malpractice, breach of fiduciary duty, corporate waste and several counts of fraudulent transfers, according to the lawsuit.
