🚨 URGENT CALL TO ACTION: WE NEED WYOMING & ARIZONA RESIDENTS 🚨

Senators Lummis (WY) and Gallego (AZ) have already taken a leading role on the SBF/FTX case, but now they have the opportunity to urge the DOJ to exercise its statutory authority regarding these assets. As elected officials, they listen to their constituents, but official contact forms often restrict access to non-residents. If you live in WY or AZ, please use the links below to ping your Senators directly and demand a DOJ Criminal Forfeiture on behalf of all defrauded retail victims:

For the attention of the U.S. Department of Justice (MLARS) and Senators Cynthia Lummis & Ruben Gallego:

Senators, you have taken a strong stance demanding justice for the millions of defrauded customers who lost their savings in the FTX collapse. While opposing a presidential pardon for Sam Bankman-Fried is a significant step, the financial reality of this case remains unresolved for victims. The U.S. Department of Justice (MLARS) must now step in to address the status of these assets. Currently, assets purchased with funds identified as connected to the fraud are being managed within the bankruptcy estate, effectively keeping them away from the defrauded victims.

The Situation:

Evidence presented at the SBF trial established that customer deposits were systematically commingled with corporate funds within Alameda Research’s accounts. Under U.S. federal criminal asset forfeiture law, assets derived from fraudulent activity and subsequently commingled are subject to criminal forfeiture. Because these investments were made using these commingled funds, they are legally classified as proceeds of fraud, distinct from standard estate property.

Furthermore, the traditional Chapter 11 bankruptcy process fails to address the specific grievances of defrauded crypto victims. By dollarizing claims at November 2022 market lows, the current framework caps victim recovery below their actual economic damages, ignoring the current market value of these assets. This creates a significant inequity where the value generated by these illicit investments is being distributed down the bankruptcy waterfall to legal fees, former shareholders, secondary market claim buyers, and the IRS, rather than to the original victims.

The Ticking Clock:

With post-collapse restructuring payouts to non-customer entities already underway since May, the window for effective asset recovery is closing. As of today, June 22, 2026, the DOJ should utilize its mandate to secure these proceeds of fraud before the Estate’s remaining value is further depleted.

The Demand:

The U.S. Department of Justice holds the statutory authority to seek forfeiture of assets identified as proceeds of fraud, a jurisdiction that exists independently of the Chapter 11 bankruptcy process. We urge the DOJ (specifically MLARS) to:

• Initiate criminal forfeiture to legally secure these assets, including the shares in SpaceX and the cash proceeds from the sale of Anthropic, along with their full appreciated value.
  
  
• Prioritize the distribution of these recovered assets directly to the original defrauded customers as restitution for their actual damages, ahead of speculative third-party entities that purchased distressed accounts post-collapse.

Conclusion:

Senators Lummis and Gallego: Please use your political influence to demand that the DOJ takes action. The victims of FTX were subjected to a financial crime, and the proceeds of that crime including the investments in SpaceX and Anthropic should be considered for restitution to those who were defrauded, rather than being treated as standard bankruptcy estate assets.
