Description
<p><b>'A gripping real-life financial thriller.' CLAER BARRETT, AUTHOR OF <i>WHAT THEY DON'T TEACH YOU ABOUT MONEY</i></b><br><br><b>'Fast-paced and highly accessible ... A must read.' GILLIAN TETT, AUTHOR OF <i>ANTHRO-VISION</i></b><br><br><b>'Anybody who wants to understand the cryptocurrency mania should read <i>Hype Machine</i>.' LIONEL BARBER, FORMER EDITOR OF THE <i>FINANCIAL TIMES</i></b><br><br>On 2 November 2023, in one of the largest fraud trials in history, Sam Bankman-Fried was found guilty of stealing billions of dollars from the customers of his crypto-exchange, FTX. <br><br>How did this 31-year-old Californian in shorts and a T-shirt manage to become one of the most famous CEOs in the world? How did greed, fear and free money inflate the crypto bubble until it finally popped with devastating consequences for millions of people who lost money in the crash? Who were the enablers, investors and innovators who transformed the original promise of crypto into a digital Wild West? <br><br><i>Hype Machine</i> is the definitive story of the boom and bust of crypto, written by award-winning <i>Financial Times</i> journalist Joshua Oliver. Expansive, nuanced and eminently entertaining, it demystifies the crypto circus by following the journeys of its most influential participants and the trajectory of SBF, its enigmatic ringmaster.<br><br>Oliver, who reported on the crypto crash with extensive access to SBF himself, introduces readers to the people and ideas that shaped crypto's wild rise and fall, including Arthur Hayes, Changpeng Zhao and the coterie of acolytes who surrounded FTX. Through exclusive interviews, compelling research and with ringside seats at the trial of the decade, he paints a vivid, detailed and tragi-comic picture of this defining financial moment of our times.</p>
