This comes shortly after FTX' deal with its rival Binance collapsed on Wednesday. FTX saw an exodus of its investors as they pulled out of the company in the wake of rising interest rates.

As per Reuters, the cryptocurrency market has fallen by about two-thirds from its peak to $1.07 trillion.

In a series of tweets on Thursday, Sam Bankman-Fried took responsibility of his actions and said, "my #1 priority--by far--is doing right by users. And I'm going to do everything I can to do that. To take responsibility, and do what I can."

His tweets were appreciated by many on Twitter including billionaire investor Bill Ackman. 

It was also this week that Bankman-Fried disappeared from Bloomberg Billionaire Index as 94% of his wealth was wiped out after the announcement of a deal with Binance.
