Reply to comment by coingecko in [OC] Which Political Groups did Former FTX Executives Donate to? by coingecko
However, did he not go on record as saying he also secretly donated to GOP?
I find it hard to believe any publicly available financial information regarding FTX, this thing is like Enron^3.

All donations to republicans was "dark/hidden".
"“All my Republican donations were dark,” he said, referring to political donations that are not publicly disclosed. “The reason was not for regulatory reasons, it’s because reporters freak the fuck out if you donate to Republicans. They’re all super liberal, and I didn’t want to have that fight.”
Bankman-Fried’s undisclosed donations were made possible by the supreme court’s 2010 decision in the Citizens United case, which made it easier for donors to give large amounts of money anonymously and has led to more than $1bn being poured into federal elections since 2010."
