Nishad Singh, who has pleaded guilty to six felony counts of fraud and conspiracy, testified as a prosecution witness in the trial that led to Sam Bankman-Fried’s conviction on fraud and other charges

Former cryptocurrency executive Nishad Singh is set to be sentenced on Wednesday for his role in his imprisoned former boss Sam Bankman-Fried’s theft of about $8-billion in customer funds from the now-bankrupt FTX exchange.
