'Going Infinite: The Rise and Fall of a New Tycoon' by Michael Lewis is a captivating exploration of the enigmatic Sam Bankman-Fried, the world's youngest billionaire and a crypto sensation often likened to Gatsby. Michael Lewis delves into the intriguing life of this unassuming figure who rose to Forbes billionaire status practically overnight. Sam Bankman-Fried, known for his casual attire and peculiar behavior in Zoom meetings, becomes the subject of Lewis's scrutiny as the author unravels the complex world of high-frequency trading, cryptocurrencies, philanthropy, bankruptcy, and the legal system.

In this compelling narrative, Lewis provides listeners with both a psychological portrait and a thrilling financial roller-coaster ride, showcasing the unconventional journey of a maverick who refused to abide by conventional rules and was allowed to chart his own course—until his world came crashing down. 'Going Infinite' is Michael Lewis at his finest, offering a mesmerizing account of a character whose ascent and subsequent downfall serve as an educational and thought-provoking exploration of the modern financial landscape.
