> SBF decided to testify against CZ to try to save his own ass, giving justice dept and sec something to fine CZ with.

Is this conjecture?

Looks like it, and also seems like BS.

SBF was convicted ~2 weeks ago and a Section 35B (federal cooperation and substantial assistance) doesn't go through that quickly, unless SBF started cooperating against CZ before his conviction.

And it sure didn't seem like SBF was interested in cooperating in any way pre-conviction.
