The Crypto Wunderkind Who Had Everything (And Nothing)
In November 2022, the cryptocurrency world witnessed a financial earthquake. Sam Bankman-Fried, the disheveled 30-year-old who had built a $32 billion crypto empire in just three years, watched it crumble in days. His exchange FTX froze $8.8 billion in customer deposits, triggering perhaps the most spectacular financial implosion since Bernie Madoff. But unlike typical financial scandals, this story isn't just about money-it's about a brilliant mind with profound social disconnection, a utilitarian philosophy taken to extremes, and the dangerous intersection of genius and hubris. What makes this tale so compelling is how Sam's mind operated in fundamentally different ways from most people's. He approached every decision-from what to wear to how to deploy billions-with cold, probabilistic reasoning. He didn't feel emotions that typically cloud judgment, viewing life as a series of expected value calculations. This unique wiring made him extraordinarily successful at certain games but catastrophically blind to human dynamics and ethical boundaries.
