SBF's assets of $1 billion have been seized, including private jets, political donations, and Robinhood shares

Comparatively, according to the “Final Expropriation Order for Specific Property” issued by the US District Court for the Southern District of New York, former FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF)'s total assets were about 1 billion US dollars, including two private jets, large political donations, cryptocurrency balances, and Robinhood shares.

The largest asset that was confiscated was 55.2 million Robinhood shares. On January 9, 2023, the US Department of Justice seized these shares, which later became the largest portion of the confiscated assets. In September 2023, Robinhood bought back these shares for $605.7 million.

Additionally, the seizure order included two aircraft—a Bombardier Global 5000 and an Embraer Legacy, as well as assets of Alameda Research, a trading company co-founded by SBF.

Court documents also detail political donations made by Bankman-Fried himself or directed other FTX executives (such as Ryan Salame and Nishad Singh) on its behalf. The donations have been returned to the government, and include organizations and individuals from multiple political factions, including US congressional candidates and groups focused on in-state politics.

SBF has also accumulated large amounts of cryptocurrency and cash, which are held at Binance.US and several banks, respectively. The confiscated cryptocurrencies include millions of USDT and large amounts of Bitcoin, Ethereum, Cardano, and Dogecoin.
