《大賣空》作者麥可.路易士重磅新作!
貼身採訪2022年幣圈風暴的核心人物──加密貨幣交易所FTX創辦人SBF,看他如何一路打破所有規則,直到一切失控……
 
  當麥可.路易士首次見到山姆.班克曼-弗里德(Sam Bankman-Fried,SBF),他是全世界最年輕的億萬富豪、加密貨幣圈的蓋茲比。在他幾乎是一夜致富、躍上富比士富豪榜後,眾多企業執行長、名人,甚至是國家領袖,競相爭奪他的時間和資金。在路易士與SBF的首次會面接近尾聲時,路易士告訴他:我不知道你身上將發生什麼事,也不知道你的故事會往哪個方向走。我從未見過這樣的事。但我想在旁邊安靜地觀察。
 
  SBF同意了。直到SBF在巴哈馬被逮捕,路易士一直在他身邊,近距離了解關於這位幣圈傳奇人物的一切。
 
  在這部作品中,路易士企圖對自己一開始的疑惑提供解答:這個讓他初見時覺得摸不著頭緒的神祕年輕人,究竟是誰?結合精彩的心理側寫和驚險刺激的金融事件,本書帶讀者看見這趟超高速金融雲霄飛車之旅的全貌,深入了解故事主角SBF──他從來不喜歡規則,並被允許一路打破這些限制,直到一切失控。(文/博客來編譯)

  From the #1 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.
