Question: Who is the individual that, according to articles from The Verge, Fortune, and TechCrunch, used FTX customer funds to secure a buyout, recruited a colleague from Jane Street for ventures at Alameda and FTX, and is facing allegations of committing fraud for personal gain?

Context:
It was Bankman-Fried’s decision, she said, as he was the CEO of FTX.

Question: Which company, featured in articles by TechCrunch, The Verge, and Fortune, had significant holdings in "unlocked FTT" and "FTT collateral," was able to maintain a negative balance without liquidation on FTX, and was involved in taking losses to present a better financial image for FTX, all while acting within its legal boundaries as a customer, payment processor, and market maker?

Context:
But there was a problem: The report showed Alameda’s largest asset was $3.66 billion of “unlocked FTT” and $2.16 billion of “FTT collateral.” FTT was the token behind FTX.
It was not, however, possible for those accounts to avoid liquidation, as Wang testified Alameda could do — or to have an overall negative balance.
Unfortunately, she did say that she had conversations with investors as part of their due diligence — and, of course, Alameda was taking on losses from FTX to keep FTX’s balance sheet pristine.
It was a “very innovative, successful company.” And the business practices between the two were reasonable, he argued, claiming that Alameda acted legally as an FTX customer, payment processor, and market maker, or financial entity that acts as a trading partner for customers looking to buy and sell cryptocurrencies.

Answer: Alameda Research
