Going Infinite: The Rise and Fall of a New Tycoon
Description
Michael Lewis offers an intimate, fast-moving portrait of Sam Bankman-Fried, tracing his rise from an unconventional young mathematician and trader to the celebrated founder of cryptocurrency exchange FTX. The book follows the ambitions, beliefs, and eccentric habits that shaped his businesses—and the volatile world of digital finance that elevated him to extraordinary wealth and influence. As success gives way to crisis, the narrative examines the fragile foundations beneath the empire, while exploring themes of risk, altruism, ambition, power, and the psychology of financial speculation. Drawing on close access and Lewis’s sharply observant storytelling, it is both a character study and a revealing account of one of the most dramatic collapses in modern business.
