Analysis
There has been much discussion recently about whether President Biden will pardon former FTX CEO SBF. According to bets placed by Polymarket users, Biden is more likely to pardon SBF than Ross Ulbricht, the founder of Silk Road. SBF is currently serving a 25-year sentence while awaiting appeal, while Ulbricht 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 that he will pardon Ulbricht. Notably, Trump had promised to look into Ulbricht's case. Therefore, while SBF's pardon appears more likely, the final decision rests with Biden.
