Former crypto boss Sam Bankman-Fried has been testifying to a judge at his trial after the jury was sent home.

The former entrepreneur was asked to speak to Judge Lewis Kaplan to determine which parts of his testimony can be put to the jury.

The 31-year-old is accused of lying to investors and lenders and stealing money from customers of his now-bankrupt cryptocurrency exchange, FTX.

If he is found guilty he could face a life sentence in prison.
