Michael Lewis | Sam Bankman-Fried / SBF | Know Your Meme

For the past six months or so, Michael Lewis has been traveling with and interviewing Sam Bankman-Fried. His childhood, early success on Wall Street, embrace of effective altruism and the creation of a crypto empire that catapulted him in record time into the ranks of the richest people in the world seemed more than sufficient for a signature Michael Lewis book. Of course, the events of the past week have provided a dramatic surprise ending to the story. It also highlighted the rivalry between Bankman-Fried and Binance head Chnagpeng Zhao. Michael likens them to the Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader of crypto. Michael hasn't written anything yet, but the story has become too big for us to wait. Let me know if I've piqued your interest.
