Prior to FTX, she had worked at Huobi Global and Credit Suisse.
While Bankman-Fried is Under House Arrest, Others Pursue New Beginnings
Some top-level FTX executives are being held accountable for the legal proceedings initiated against them, with some accepting the charges while others are pursuing a fresh start. Amy Wu, who manages FTX Ventures, is one of these individuals. Wu recently joined the Menlo Ventures team.
While Bankman-Fried denies many of the charges against him, he is currently under house arrest and awaiting the next hearing in the ongoing trial.
