SBF's name is the reputational equivalent of Bernie Madoff.

You think people are going to help him make a comeback or convince people to give him more money?

His only counsel now is going to be criminal lawyers. No PR firm or conference interview could save this dude's reputation.

His PR team bought the New York Times. It's ludicrous to think that they're giving him this positive treatment without bribes. Well, not bribe-bribes, of course, but rather the kind of bribes that very rich and well-connected people can afford.
