instant classic." -- Helen Lewis, The

wildly entertaining, surprising multiple times on pretty much every page, but

all the people who lost so much thanks to his actions." --John

From the
best-selling author 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 the
world's youngest billionaire and crypto's Gatsby. CEOs,
celebrities, and leaders of small countries all vied for his time and cash
after he catapulted, practically overnight, onto
the Forbes billionaire list. Who was 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 answer this
question, taking readers into the mind of Bankman-Fried, whose rise 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 at the top of his
game, tracing the mind-bending trajectory of a character who never liked the
rules and was allowed to live by his own--until it all came
undone.
