Disgraced FTX founder, Sam Bankman-Fried, appears unkempt in a recently obtained prison photo, according to crypto influencer Tiffany Fong. The picture was shared on X and allegedly taken by a former inmate named G Lock, who was in prison with Bankman-Fried.
Fong mentioned that inmates are only allowed to take photos on Christmas and Father’s Day, and she obscured the faces of other inmates to protect their privacy. In the photo, Bankman-Fried seems to have lost weight and looks disheveled. Fong added that he is reportedly not showering as much and is not as clean-shaven as before.
A representative for Bankman-Fried declined to comment on the photo.

The former FTX CEO has been at Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center since August and was initially under house arrest. However, he was remanded after a judge found probable cause to believe he had attempted to tamper with witnesses.
The prison is infamous for its poor living conditions, with a former warden calling it “the most troubled facility in the Bureau of Prisons.” Bankman-Fried not only has to deal with these conditions but also must find ways to pass the time without internet access, as inmates are only allowed radios or MP3 players.
In November, a jury found Bankman-Fried guilty of seven counts of fraud and conspiracy in his criminal trial in Manhattan federal court. He could face up to 110 years in prison, and his sentencing is scheduled for March 28.
Representatives for Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Why One Survival Food Company Shines Above the Rest
Let’s be real. “Prepper Food” or “Survival Food” is generally awful. The vast majority of companies that push their cans, bags, or buckets desperately hope that their customers never try them and stick them in the closet or pantry instead. Why? Because if the first time they try them is after the crap hits the fan, they’ll be too shaken to call and complain about the quality.
It’s true. Most long-term storage food is made with the cheapest possible ingredients with limited taste and even less nutritional value. This is why they tout calories so much. Sure, they provide calories but does anyone really want to go into the apocalypse with food their family can’t stand?
This is what prompted the Llewellyns to launch Heaven’s Harvest. They bought survival food from multiple companies and determined they couldn’t imagine being stuck in an extended emergency with such low-quality food. They quickly discovered that freeze drying food for long-term storage doesn’t have to mean sacrificing flavor, consistency, or nutrition.
Their ingredients are all-American. In fact, they’re locally sourced and all-natural! This allows their products to be the highest quality on the market, so good that their customers often break open a bag in a pinch to eat because they want to, not just because they have to due to an emergency.
At Heaven’s Harvest, their only focus is amazing food. They don’t sell bugout bags, solar chargers, or multitools. They have one mission – feeding Americans in times of crisis.
What they DO offer is the ability for people to thrive in times of greatest need. On top of long-term storage food, they offer seeds to help Americans for the truly long-term. They want them to grow their own food if possible which is why they offer only Heirloom, Non-GMO, Non-Hybrid, Open-Pollinated seeds so their customers can build permanent food security on their own property.
