Bankman-Fried's lawyer said during his first court appearance that his client would resist being sent to the United States, but American media cited people familiar with the matter as saying on Sunday that he would no longer fight it and would make an announcement in court next week.
The US Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York's Securities and Commodities Fraud Task Force is handling the case. The charges against Bankman-Fried could land him in prison for decades. He has denied any wrongdoing.
The US Department of Justice on Tuesday announced charges against the 30-year-old Californian, who is being held at a prison in the Bahamas. He is accused of conspiring to defraud crypto investors of billions of dollars in a scheme that allegedly led to FTX's downfall last month.
