Caroline Ellison, the former CEO of Alameda Research, is set to be released from federal custody on January 21, 2026. Ellison was previously sentenced to two years in prison and ordered to forfeit $11 billion due to her involvement in the FTX collapse. Her early release, approximately 10 months ahead of schedule, is attributed to good behavior and her crucial assistance in the FTX investigation. Upon release, Ellison will be subject to a 10-year ban from serving as an executive or director of any public company or cryptocurrency exchange. She will also remain under supervised release, ensuring continued oversight of her activities.
