Bankman-Fried already faces several counts of fraud over the collapse of FTX.
FTX co-founder Sam Bankman-Fried was charged with bribing Chinese officials in a revised indictment.
The charge was added Monday by a federal grand jury in Manhattan federal court. Bankman-Fried was accused of sending $40 million in cryptocurrency intended for the benefit of one or more Chinese government officials in order to get them to unfreeze accounts at Alameda research holding more than $1 billion in crypto.
