The story of the fall of FTX is so incredible that its adaptation into a TV series seems inevitable. The author of ” The big short », Michael Lewis , has he not spent the last six months in the company of Sam Bankman-Fried, the fallen boss of the platform? The scriptwriters will then not fail to look at his right arm, Caroline Ellison, ex-CEO of Alameda, the trading company behind FTX. Alas, they are very likely to fall into the clichés of the genre.
Like “SBF”, it too has two faces. That of a brilliant Stanford graduate broken in mathematics and philanthropic fiber. But also that of a cynical trader, addicted to amphetamines and unexpected hints of eugenics.
