Analysis
There has been much discussion recently about whether US President Joe Biden will pardon former FTX CEO SBF. According to bets placed by Polymarket users, Biden is more likely to pardon SBF than Silk Road founder Ross Ubricht. Currently, SBF is serving a 25-year sentence while awaiting appeal, while Ubricht was sentenced to life in prison in 2015. While Biden recently commuted the sentences of over 1,500 people, Polymarket users believe there is only a 4% chance that Biden will pardon SBF before leaving office, and an even lower 2% chance of pardoning Ubricht. Notably, Trump had promised to look into Ubricht's case. Therefore, despite the widespread attention surrounding SBF's case, the likelihood of Biden pardoning him remains low.
