Ah, they're Bahamas.

What if you could hang out with celebrities, live in a penthouse above the crystal clear

ocean with all your best friends and have it be 100% paid for?

FTX founder Sam Bankman Fried made that dream a reality, but U.S. prosecutors say he was

hiding a dark secret.

As cryptocurrency gained mainstream popularity, FTX was the poster child, spending millions

on pro-sports sponsorships and a-list celebrity endorsements from the likes of Tom Brady, Larry

David, and even Shark Tank's Kevin O'Leary, with some investing their own money in the marketplace.

Many thought Sam Bankman Fried was changing the game as he graced the pages of Forbes

and Vanity Fair.

Barely 30, this young crypto billionaire became a powerful financial figure, influencing

the global economy.

But in just one month, his exchange would collapse, and SBF would find himself in handcuffs

as tens of thousands of investors would blame him for their fortunes lost.

It's one of the most dramatic falls from grace in American history and represents one

of the most spectacular failures of corporate control.

Here exclusive tape of Sam and his former girlfriend and business partner, Caroline Ellison,

who later admitted something had gone very wrong inside their operation.
