SBF publicly lied about this and called it a hack. If it was all aboveboard why would he have done that?

You're assuming SBF is a rational agent, which if he was, he wouldn't be in this position.

He’s rational, he’s just using a different set of ethics.

In the Vox interview he says he’s trying to win a jurisdictional battle with Delaware, this just part of that fight.

Sure, but that’s just handwaving away the question. He made an effort to reach out to a journalist and reinforced the hack narrative.

Did SBF ever say it was a hack? I only saw admins on telegram call it a hack and ftx's US general counsel say it was a hack[1].

He did. He directly said it was a hack in an interview with Vox.

Because he is a liar and a con-artist?

That "interview" that he's been trying to walk back ever since, seems more like the work of a sociopath attempting to change the public narrative. Instead of people talking about all the fraud, he's hoping they'll be arguing about if he's actually woke or fake woke.
