On October 4th, SBF stated in an interview with the news media "Mother Jones" on Friday that his "biggest mistake" during the $8 billion bankruptcy was handing over control of the company to a new management team - he claimed that this decision cost him the chance to save the company at the last minute. SBF said that a few minutes after signing the control transfer agreement, he received a phone call saying that a potential external investment could save the company from bankruptcy, but it was already too late to revoke the signature at that time.
