Description
From the number one highest-selling creator of The Big Short and Flash Boys, the story of FTX’s spectacular collapse and the enigmatic founder at its center.
When Michael Lewis first met him, Sam Bankman-Fried was once the world’s youngest billionaire and crypto’s Gatsby. CEOs, celebrities, and leaders of small countries all vied for his cash and time after he catapulted, practically overnight, onto the Forbes billionaire list. Who was once this rumpled guy in cargo shorts and limp white socks, whose eyes twitched across Zoom meetings as he played video games on the side?
In Going Infinite Lewis sets out to reply to this query, taking readers into the mind of Bankman-Fried, whose upward thrust and fall offers an education in high-frequency trading, cryptocurrencies, philanthropy, bankruptcy, and the justice system. Both psychological portrait and financial roller-coaster ride, Going Infinite is Michael Lewis on the top of his game, tracing the mind-bending trajectory of a character who never liked the rules and was once allowed to live by his own—until it all came undone.
