The Scoop

FTX didn't have to fail, says Sam Bankman-Fried book author


Listen Later

In this episode, veteran crypto journalist Brady Dale unpacks his new book, SBF: How The FTX Bankruptcy Unwound Crypto's Very Bad Good Guy.

The book explores Bankman-Fried's worldview and his quest to make FTX the number one crypto exchange in the world, no matter the cost.

Despite FTX's bankruptcy last year, Dale believes the exchange was not necessarily doomed to fail and that Bankman-Fried's need for absolute control was a critical factor.
