In a year marked by regulatory scrutiny, Sam Bankman-Fried, the founder of crypto exchange FTX, demonstrated his audacity by expressing his desire to testify in his own trial, where he was found guilty on all seven counts of fraud and conspiracy. The SEC's aggressive stance against crypto entities put companies on rocky ground, as the frothiness and FOMO of the 2021 market turned into suspicion of crypto companies' promises and accounting practices. FTX had a particularly tumultuous year, including a 'very crazy night' where it faced the theft of hundreds of millions of dollars. In the entertainment sector, 2023 was a significant year for television, with Rotten Tomatoes and other outlets naming the best 10 TV shows, and South Korean TV earning praise for its innovative content. Rolling Stone and others highlighted the best South Korean TV shows, while Bloody Disgusting selected the 10 Best Horror TV Series. The year also saw notable construction moments, top TV shows including 'Succession' and 'Reservation Dogs', and 15 TV shows that delighted critics. Amidst streaming mergers and box office hits, many of the year's biggest films became available on streaming platforms. In the crypto world, New York's attorney general charged the Winklevoss twins, crypto lender Genesis, and Digital Currency Group with causing a combined $1.1 billion in losses, while Ameen Soleimani launched a new crypto mixer to combat money laundering and illegal activities.
