A week after the first photo of former FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried behind bars emerged, cryptocurrency influencer Tiffany Fong published an interview with one of Bankman-Fried's fellow inmates.

'He’s A Different Kind Of Guy … He’s Odd'

Fong interviewed "G-Lock," an inmate who befriended Bankman-Fried and was released after a five-year prison sentence.

Asked about the personality of SBF, as Bankman-Fried is often referred to, G-Lock said: “He’s a different kind of guy … he’s odd.” 

But even though SBF is "weird as s–t," he's a "good guy." 

Bankman-Fried stood out in the unit comprised of high-profile inmates but one that rarely sees "white-collar crime" offenders. 

G-Lock recalled an instance when he said Bankman-Fried was extorted but fellow inmates stood up for him, beating up the extortioner in the process.

Caroline Ellison Does Not Impress SBF's Fellow Inmates

Asked about Caroline Ellison, former CEO and of Bankman-Fried's hedge fund Alameda Research and his love interest, G-Lock concluded with a grin: "She looks nasty."

That was the overwhelming opinion of all inmates that, according to G-Lock, watched the "60 Minutes" episode with SBF's biographer Michael Lewis.

G-Lock did concede that looks might not have been the only thing that attracted Bankman-Fried to Ellison.

SBF's Life In Prison: Pingpong And Video Games

In terms of habits, Bankman-Fried does not shower and has grown out a full beard, reported his prison companion.

Entertainment in prison is limited to a tablet without internet access, which Bankman-Fried uses to continuously play video games.

He is also "really good at pingpong" and, like all inmates, does not enjoy any privacy at all.

G-Lock voiced his appreciation for Bankman-Fried's helpful nature, although he quipped that SBF "does not understand the hood" when asked about money-making tips. According to G-Lock, SBF gave him tips on how to raise $1 million dollars when asked how to turn $5,000 into $25,000.

"Free My Boy Sam Bankman…"

G-Lock concluded that President Joe Biden should pardon Bankman-Fried and called on him to "free my boy Sam Bankman … he's innocent." According to him, Bankman-Fried is "the modern-day Bernie Madoff" but does not deserve an overly harsh sentence.

Bankman-Fried is set to be sentenced on March 28, 2024, and could potentially spend decades in prison.
